Hopefully we keep Coby I mean even though he's our last guy off the bench he certainly does not play like it. He's got game, hopefully Lakers keep him around.

The time he had in the Minnesota game, he was just chucking it up there.

I think the Minnesota game brought to light that he needs to see some playing time, no matter where he plays. He was so eager to make some noise that he could barely keep his pants on. He was so desperate to play and prove himself that he played outside of his cool. Kind of like an inmate coming out of the isolation cell after months, only to be thrown straight into a free for all orgy at the playboy mansion...

D-league will do him good. Good outlet for him to give all that energy and ambition some release. We can use him in the playoffs. He's a good player. In a year or two, he might outplay Luke for his minutes. Equally smart guy, but more athletic and a much better shooter.

Almost as if Luke and Sasha had a love child.

Why do we sign these scrubs? I'm pretty sure Bill Walton and George Karl give under the table money to Jerry Buss.

Wow give Coby some time he's just a rookie. Now Luke is a different story.

Coby Karl is turning 25 in 4months, he simply sucks, I don't see him panning out as a decent bench player, he's just a waste of a roster spot.

He's still a rookie. Give it time. He's not a scrub, dj is a scrub.
