Monty was damned either way. If Lopez is in, we get killed in the pick and roll. If Davis is in, Dwight dominates inside.

AD for Anderson swap?

With Gasol on the bench and Howard abusing Lopez, why wasn't the decision made to use Davis to spread the floor, defend the rim and finish with the low post assists, he's great at finishing at the rim, Lopez missed about a good 4 shots at the rim that davis makes? Also why not change the half court defense to defend the perimeter while up by 20 POINTS instead of worrying about Howard getting a dunk or Kobe penetrating? Isn't the 3 more dangerous at that point in the game?

We just didn't make adjustments to the Laker's adjustments. We stayed within the constraints of the "game plan" and didn't stray away from it while up to keep the lead. AWFUL coaching.

This is perhaps a new low for this franchise, forget about draft picks and tanking, this about a total collapse of a team and a reflection of the mental fortitude or lack there of from their head coach. I have been supporting this team as a season ticket holder since they came to New Orleans but I can't waste my money on this garbage anymore and I think there will be a lot of others that are feeling the same way. Pathetic!

Honestly, I was one of the biggest Monty supporters this site had, but I'm really beginning to lose faith.

I hope Monty has tough questions to answer post game. Anyone with a twitter should tweet some of the reporters.

I lost faith awhile ago. He has talent, but his rotations have always been suspect, even in year one where he probably cost us a few games and a higher seed with not playing Aaron Gray or Thornton throughout the season when they were clearly better options at their positions.

Lakers overcome 25-point deficit to beat Hornets, 108-102. @kobebryant scores 42 as LA ends game on 20-0 run.

20-0 run to end the game? seriously?

Outscored 33-9 in the 4th. NINE points?

I don't give a damn who they draft. I want an offensive specialist hired TOMORROW! Sick of this.

Funny...for the fist 15 pages you guys were loving Monty and his rotations...and now you all want him fired.....I certainly don't have the basketball IQ as most of you on this forum but seems to me there were too many mistakes by the players...too many turnovers under the rim...too many bad shots....how many times does Meek have to drain a 3 before the defender relaizes he should stay on his man.....could Monty have done something about tihs ....maybe he tried...but players have to play and make better decisions......oh..and the referees really hurt us bad.....that last block by Howard was no differnet than the foul Lopez got on Kobe a few minutes prior.....

Im down with that. I said to myself our Monday night game was untankable. Somehow we still managed to lose. Fool me once shame on me. Fool me twice shame on you Pelicawns.

I pray Monty is tanking. Because if hes not, we have a coach who sucks at rotations and diagramming plays.

In other words, an incompetent HC.

If the hornets just score 15 points in the 4th they win this game .. We scored 9 points . Our best low post player on offense & defense is on the ****ing bench . Vasquez is running around like a chicken with its head caught off , Aminu the only player who can stick Kobe is on the damn bench, & Gordon couldn't hit a shot to save his life.

Monty please go .. Take Eric Grdon with you . Monty sucks as a in game coach . He flat out sucks . Watching Lopez get abused and make absolutely no adjustments at all

He didn't play the best DEFENSIVE player on the team in the 4th.
He also let the Lakers go on a 14-0 run before calling timeout.

Yeah. The casual fans who came out to watch the Lakers more than the Hornets have got to be like "WTF is this ****...I'm not coming back to watch this team"
