The NBA D-League streams the games live via YouTube on their site, which is amazing. You can watch Clarkson play at 6:30PM PST here: http://dleague.nba.com/games/20141122/IDALAD/

And how has that worked out so far exactly?


Yeah, big mistake by Scott. We should be playing for subsequent seasons. Unleash Clark Week.

This season isn't about the development of the future, or even being competitive. It is all about Kobe indulging himself in a scoring chase. The front office has gambled that the fans are too stupid to see what is really happening.

No this is a stealth tank kicked off by the punted offseason manufactured by the front office. Kobe is playing the way he always has. Now whether that's good or bad for the team is another discussion.

I love clarkson a game and I think he's even added a couple inches to his vert since we drafted him after watching those dunks. What Ive really noticed stand out from watching his d-league performances is that roscoe smith is an NBA talent and we need to ink him before someone else does. I'd rather we grab him instead of some other random scrub sf

Giving Clarkson some of Kobe's minutes and shots would still result in losses (tanking) but would have the upside of developing something for the future. Kobe is in charge of the franchise and wants the scoring record. The future be damned.

Clarkson playing would come at the expense of Price getting minutes.

Which is what I'm clamoring for.

But, I just think the staff is going to be real slow with him.

Clarkson's minutes are about to go up with the addition of Earl Clark.
Looks like Price is on his way out the back door.

Byron said that he's been working with Clarkson on a few plays he'd be running within the offense and is gonna start giving him minutes soon.



They're just bringing Clarkson along smartly. You can already tell how much more confidence he's starting to play with.

Been saying this all along. The lakers are great at developing young talent. They know how to get the most out of thier picks

This is simply not true. We've barely developed any picks. We try to land big names via FA or trade. Our recent streak has been busts or injures.

C'mon man!
JC got 0 minutes yesterday vs Grizzlies, zilch, nada.

We need to give the guy a chance to develop.
Few minutes a game wouldn't hurt the team & would pay future dividends.

I'm so sick of seeing Byron trot Ronnie Price out there every game. Get Clarkson more minutes.

What's the latest on Clarkson? Is he still playing in the D League or is he rotting on the Lakers bench while Ronnie Price keeps building his brick house?

I can't wait for Byron to give Clarkson a chance to play as PG instead of Price. I've been watching Price a little, he doesn't shoot a whole lot but I think he still looks for his own shot a little more than I would prefer. He is such a bad shooter he should just constantly be looking to feed the other guys. Price should stick to playing defense and shoot only layups.

So far, Clarkson isn't quite the ideal pass first point guard but at least he is a threat to score and give the Lakers more length and athleticism.

As someone mentioned on another thread, I would also like to see them sign Earl Clark and move Ed Davis back to center for the second unit. Sacre should only play when they need some bulk....which is probably quite often.

Hill, Boozer, Johnson, Kobe, Lin
Davis, Clark, Swaggy, Clarkson, Ellington

Also play Swaggy with Kobe in Wes's and Lin's place sometimes.

Byron is developing Clarkson the old school way, sitting him on the bench is rookie season. Just like they used to do in the '50's.
