Mana from heaven has been such a letdown, you could see KCP wasn't the sharpest guy from the initial interviews and between him and Clarkson I think we have the dumbest SG rotation in the league.

Any wonder we fall apart into pieces once the only PG on the roster is out, our SG's are complete intellectual nonentities.

Walton cited Bogut as the Lakers’ best defensive communicator, followed by Brewer. In addition to helping various young Lakers, Walton said Draymond Green credits Bogut with having taught him a lot defensively as a young player at Golden State


And I thought KCP would be the defensive guru of the team.

Wow.
I can't stand watching him play.
He basically turns side ways and let's his man get passed him.
What the heck Luke. Play Hitman over this guy.

KCP is playing like he already got his guaranteed $18 mil and he knows he’s only here for 1 year.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope violated his probation, the Los Angeles Times reported Thursday, and as a result is serving a 25-day sentence at the Seal Beach Police Department Detention Center in Orange County, California.

Caldwell-Pope is allowed to leave the facility to go to practice and Lakers games in California under a work-release program, but he must wear a GPS monitor outside the detention facility.


Hope he gets his mind right when he gets out.

What a mistake we made giving him one.

And that is why he got benched.

He has all the intangibles to be another Wes Johnson, low IQ, overrated D, no offensive game, I don’t think there is anyone out there right now that would want him, unless he admitted that he wasn’t trying as a Laker.

Really don't know how you parade about locker room culture and then sign some bonehead moron who spends half his time in jail, and then give him 35 mpg to boot.

To be realistic, I don’t think anyone predicted the move being a disaster I remember when the deal happened during the summer league... almost 80% of Laker fans were super excited, TWC crew were also saying positive things, I honestly think he doesn’t want to be here.... also his media day interview was awkward... almost seemed like he knew he had no future here.... so we should have known what we were getting into.

But anyone with common sense would be like I’m getting 18 mill to play in a fast pace offsense getting open shots I can parlay that to a big multi year contract. But unfortunately we under estimated how dumb KCP really is

He’s not dumb, look at his body language... it’s not like he’s making dumb turnovers or anything... the problem is that he’s not interested and doesn’t want to be a Laker... he’s playing like he doesn’t give a damn..... Pelinka probably regrets his bread from heaven comment...

Funny page.
Would we care about his arrest if he was balling?
Unfortunately he's not balling.
His family must be having it rough and you can tell it's affecting his game.
He hasn't been this unfocused prior to the lock down

Comparing KCPs situation with Kobe, one took it to the heart of being a Laker and that was why Kobe was still dominating despite his illegal trouble.... KCP doesn’t want to be a Laker, the DUI situation is just playing a role in his decline, what’s really playing the role in his decline and piss poor effort is his desire of being here.
