What is Byron Scott's personal agenda on Tarik Black?
I had to create a topic on this issue. he has a lot of talent to be sitting on the bench or the doghouse. I'm also curious why Kelly all of a sudden is getting 0 minutes.
Bass although has been Impressive with his timely defense isn't really giving what the Lakers had hoped for.
The Lakers can't afford to sit players on the bench.... Scott is doing his best to destroy this team because he knows he has no chance to survive and will likely result in him getting fired unless the team completely changes there season around which is unlikely....
This is not a good way to handle players it only results in bickering and losing the locker-room.

There are limited minutes. Bass is getting minutes at 5 that Black would otherwise get. Kelly was horrible, when you play poorly, you get benched.
I'm not sure about your idea of Scott destroying the team--there appears to be no logic to it. If anything his hopes would be to win to save his job, right?

The Lakers don't really have that much of a advantage on the FC besides Hibbert and Black brings more to the table then Bass... Hopefully once Bass is traded in Dec... Black gets back to getting minutes.

Black got his minutes and proved to be worse on help defense than Bass. That's why he's in the dog house.

Black provides more for this team then Bass.

Do you have any evidence to support that argument?

Re: What is Byron Scott's personal agenda on Tarik Black?
I understand your frustrations, but Bass, while garbage, he's not utter crap like Black and kelly. Lou Will playing so much is what baffles me.

It's all about fit. That is why there is so much talk about Bass being traded his defense has been solid but we need depth on this team.

I think it's time for full tank mode... Play all the young talent and see what happens...
I agree about playing Lou all these minutes is BS although we did sign him up for the next few years and we should see if he has any trade value.
Kelly stinks
Black should be playing more no doubt..
Bass is probably being showcased like Lou.

There is no talk, you're reading random posts on twitter and think its talk.

I just don't understand what happened to Bass. He played excellent last year.

Bad fit / Playing the C spot / and coaching.
And Slava - I think it's obvious that Bass is not in the Lakers long term plan.

Kelly lost all his minutes to the much better Larry Nance, there's no mystery there.

Wait why though? Maybe I'm not as plugged in as I used to be but who is saying Bass is on his way out?

I'm speaking on my own terms. Bass is a good player but until we get a good coach that uses his strengths we are only gonna see mediocre games from Bass.

I believe every poster on this board is now familiar with your stance on Byron Scott. There's no need to repeat yourself.

So there's no chatter about him being on the block...?

OP just likes posting things without any evidence or substance, I wouldn't be too concerned.
