thats not fair man...byron doesn't know how to use them new school mobile phones... and thats these kids problem, they dont know the struggle of using a rotary to dial up they friends, having they friends mom answer the phone and having to humble themselves to ask for permission to speak to they friends. Byron shouldn't have to call first, a man would reach out to the new coach on his own and be grateful if byron answers the phone |

True. Byron still trying to find out what DLO Aim screen name is so he can message him platitudes |

Anyone else like me today and break into a big smile every time they showed Luke on the bench?

Love the signing of Luke Walton.
However, he is just the first step to the many we need to get back to where we belong, top of the NBA.
At the moment, with the current team and Ingram/Simmons, making the playoffs is wishful thinking. |

| Tracy Murray just said he's working w/Julius so... I'd assume he's still on the staff next year? |

He's probably still under contract. If Luke wants him,he'll be retained, if not, he'll be let go. They are not in a rush since Luke can't coach until the playoffs are done, so they still need people working with the youngsters. |

Why Walton is set for success in Los Angeles
| Quote: | "At some point we all kind of expected him to be the head coach of the Lakers," said Owens. "I thought that then [when I was coaching with him.] It may be ten years, but this guy is going to be the head coach of the Lakers."
The level of optimism required for such a feeling is rare, but it has been matched by fans of the Los Angeles Lakers in the recent weeks since Walton was hired to replace Byron Scott at the beginning of May. |

| Warriors losing tomorrow benefits the Lakers. Luke can finally begin his work with the Lakers and get up to speed on the draft prospects. |

Love the Luke hire.....he's and Kevin Ollie were my guys.
I also LOVE the brian shaw hire. Time to bring back the minds who were with us from a more successful time. Shaw was a great assistant for PJ, and obviously Luke was kind've like an assistant during his time as a player for us. Cant wait to see how they finish off the coaching staff and what our training staff will look like. Luke is so young he can be here 10+ years if everything goes right.
The upcoming years will finally be exciting for us fans. Young guys, cap space, young coaching staff with Laker ties. Let's get back to the "Laker Way." Do things our way with our guys. Luke will run a GSW type offense with us but eventually it'll evolve into our own thing that'll work to our individual players strengths! |

Luke is getting even more really great experience these playoffs. This OKC series is a chess match.

Seriously. Even though they lost, Golden State found something defensively in the 2nd half of Game 4. They gave 34, 38, & 45 in the first 3 quarters of Game 3 (4th quarter was garbage time), and then 30 & 42 in the first half of Game 4.
They stopped roaming off of Roberson to start the 2nd half of that game, and that's helped. |

Luke Walton: It’s ‘easy’ to ignore the Lakers (for now)
| Quote: | | With one more Warriors loss, the acclaimed Warriors assistant will start his next life is as head coach of one of the NBA’s most prestigious franchise — the Lakers. For now, Bill Walton’s son claims to have shut out thoughts of the purple and gold after choosing the Lakers over an inquiry from Knicks president Phil Jackson, whose preferred choice was Walton. |

Can't really blame him tbh an aging carmelo anthony + porzingis or DLO, Randle, Clarkson, Nance.
Seems like the better choice but keep in mind tbh i havent watched many knicks games so they might have players that weren't mentioned above and also he made the choice to pick us before we had the 2nd pick guaranteed. |
