I will update this when the schedule is announced in a couple of weeks, but I will open with the new uniforms for the Charlotte Hornets below.

Teams are stupid if they give Bosh a max contract.

GloryDayz · 07-05-2014, 01:00 PM

This is all really good information. I can't wait for next season's first tipoff.. Giddy, I am, just giddy..

Lebron is coming home

We let Darren Collison walk and used the full MLE on Hawes instead.

We still have to get a decent starting small forward and a backup PG, so we're not too stacked yet.

Let me just agree with TBG of his assessment of the Lakers. As a Lakers fan, it's easy to think that everyone wants to come here because it's always been that way. The Lakers always get what they want.

Until now. I fully expect the Lakers to strike out on all their free agent attempts and scrap the bottom of the barrel again.

I'd love LeBron (who wouldn't?), but if he goes back to Cleveland that would be pretty cool.

Not the rockets. He is perfect there

RustShack · 07-05-2014, 03:05 PM

Houston is offering Bosh the max deal, so I'm assuming he takes it.. LeBron goes to Cleveland, and it sounds like Carmelo is going back to NY.

Nobody wants to play with Kobe Bryant if they don't have to.

My friend is a Lakers fan and he thinks they are going to hire Byron Scott. Kind of funny hiring another Cleveland cast off after Mike Brown.

Granted I would have much rather kept Scott than hiring Brown... But I'm ecstatic for Blatt/Lue now.

Only reason why Scott went to Cleveland was to land Lebron doing that ****ing fiasco. Im fine with Scott. I think he's a good coach. No one wanted Brown or D'Antoni, we were forced to root for them though.

**The Bad Guy** · 07-05-2014, 07:31 PM

I think Scott is a garbage coach. He hasn't gotten a single interview for another job outside the Lakers.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 07-05-2014, 08:05 PM

Byron Scott is the Frank Haith of NBA coaches.

Sassy Squatch · 07-05-2014, 08:13 PM

Seriously, why do the Lakers hire coaches like they're the Jaguars?

100% spot on.

He's horrendous on a ton of levels. Awful offense with no real identity. He's had Chris Paul, Jason Kidd and Kyrie Irving as his point guards and his offensive gameplans were awful.

If he wasn't a past Laker, he wouldn't even be mentioned.

Kupchak better be working behind the scenes at someone bigger, because Scott is another long list of Laker coach abortions waiting to happen.

Besides Phil, this organization has hired the following over the last 18 years:

Del Harris
Rudy T
Kurt Rambis
Mike Brown
Mike D'Antoni

****.

Excellent point.

I wish I knew. They just can't hire coaches to save their lives.

The D'Antoni hire over Phil is going to set this organization back 10 years.
