Great game swaggy p


16 minutes, 0-6 shooting, 0 points as he fails to get off the snide...


WIth D'Antoni's offensive system, without a doubt superior to anything BS devises, NY was able to get better looks. Now without a system in which he gets nothing buyt ISOs, contested shots, he shouldn't be playing. In 40 years I've never watched a more poorly coached team, offense and defense.

Nothing personal re: Clarkson. He's athletic. BFD. There are many athletic types in the NBA. So he can jump high, whoop-de-doo. He is quick at driving to the rim, via ISO but the Lakers team probably has the WORST spacing in the NBA. JLin didn't get worse at finishing at the rim, he is just trying more difficult drives and shots since there is little else with the sucky offense of Scotts.

That's a bit of an exaggeration is it not? He had a great early game and fell off later. Overall he was decent and at least outplayed his counterpart in Payton.

Yea I don't get why people/commentators pick Clarkson apart so much, he's outplaying a lot of other rookies that were drafted ahead of him. As a mid-2nd round pick, I actually think he's exceeding expectations. No one is NBA ready coming out of college these days so I would just let him continue to develop, he has the potential to be a starting combo guard in this league.

not sure why BS is trying him as PG instead of SG.

Draft Russell, resign E. Davis, should get a good deal. Sign Brandon Knight in free agency, also sign T. Harris, and R. Lopez. L A look like this next year.

Knight/Russell/Clarkson
Bryant/Clarkson/Russell/Young
Harris/Kelly/Young
Hill/Randle/Davis/Kelly
Lopez/Sacre/Black

This team is not great, but I think it is a best case scenario this offseason. I believe this will put them at about 76.5 million with two open roster spots and a late first rounder, and I think a early second? Can they work the money idk, what do you say?

Exceeding expectations? So? Can he play PG is the question and I say NO. Trying to groom him at a position he doesn't seem comfortable with makes no sense. At the very least send him to the No D League if turning into a PG is the plan. Also he shouldn't be compared to the players coming to the NBA. Clarkson played 4 years of college. The problem is so many players are opting for the draft after one or two years when the clearly don't have so many basics. And lastly if BS is so bent on playing JC, then why not Lin-PG, JC-SG, Ellington-SF, ED Davis PF and Bill Russell at 80 would probably be better than Sacre. Which two guards with speed I think it could open up driving lanes but that would require created coaching.

Money really isn't the issue. The Lakers have so much money they afford the penalty if there was a player to sigh that would actually help, want to play under our idiot coach.
As much as I think Randle was a great pick and has incredible upside talent, sadly he may also be another Bill Walton, Gred Oden ...

No. You have a salary cap. Lakers can only go up to around 67m with a 3m room exception. It's not about the money but the salary cap.

he closed the 4th and played the entire OT with this line-up:

Clarkson
Ellington
Johnson
Kelly
Sacre

c'mon, it's way too obvious at this point.


Nah, if he really wanted to tank, he would've swapped Ellington for I Don't Make.
