Two lottery head coaches should be under pressure to turn things around for their respective teams.
Byron Scott
Scott is truly the most clueless coach in the NBA at the moment, the stuff he says in his press conferences have nearly every basketball fan sitting in utter disbelief at his pure stupidity. He runs the worst offence in the NBA as it is based on jump shooting when the team doesn’t have any good shooters outside of Nick Young and Jordan Clarkson, and the defense is currently good for 28th in the NBA.
The whole point of a rebuilding job is to oversee player development and try to get even your worst players to turn into serviceable role players, but this hasn’t happened under Scott.

The NBA has changed and players don’t just want to play for the famous ‘Purple and Gold’ anymore because of their history. Instead, they go to stable organizations.
