Dumb and Dumberer To. That would be our backcourt of the future.

Also, this...
@billoram
Nick Young added four rebounds and three assists to his 24 points. “That’s a triple-double for me,” he joked. |

Empty stats. We were down by about 19 points when he started getting hot. |

Partially right, if the want to tank they just play Nick a lot. They don't need to tell him to miss, he can do it on his own. Guy is what he is, someone who needs a bad team to look decent. Well, he has a bad team and isn't looking so decent this season. I can see him as a trade throw-in after next season.

Unfortunately the 24 against Phoenix came when they were down by 20, not when the game was winnable.

| Isn't there a contender that wants him for a late 1st pick? He's completely useless except as a scoring spark off the bench when he's hot. He's the epitome of an empty stats guy for bad teams. A good team might find some use for him on his hot shooting nights. |

Not sure any GM in the league would be stupid enough to trade a first rounder for a 30 year old journeyman chucker who gave himself his own nickname. But hey, everyone loves a clown like I Don't Make, right?

In the past week, Scott had threatened he would cut Young's PT if he didn't improve his effort

Swagu Ragu is gonna have tough sledding ahead.
He's following a tough act when it comes to scoring 2 guards.

Byron Scott said it looked like Nick Young "didn't want to be here" tonight. Via @EricPincus
Mike Bresnahan @Mike_Bresnahan · 6m6 minutes ago
Nick Young has left Staples Center without taking to reporters. #doghouse
Things heating up

Not a giant surprise. Giving him a four-year deal was a head-scratcher at best.
It's like our front office just looks at guys' PPG figures, ignores everything else, and decides they're quality players. How else do you end up with Young and Boozer on the same team? |

He was horrible today. I'm a huge Scott detractor, but Nick deserved to be sat today. |
