I don't think he's a very good coach. You have to be on some type of drugs to be playing Bobby Brown over Darren Collison. It looks like he only changed it up after Bower made the call from the top. I remember a game last year where I may have had some, um, points on New Orleans and the other team went on a 22-2 run or something like that and Scott was just standing on the sidelines watching Sean Marks get abused...I've been in the "fire Byron Scott" camp since then.
Their gm isn't to blame either, but when the team gives up on the coach, the coach is to blame. Those 18 loss in a row Boston Celtics clawed their butts off every game. They still had tenacity. A Doc Rivers team is also never out of a game. The reputation on the Hornets is that they shut down with a 15 point deficit.
