Byron Scott gon’ cry in the car … ’cause Julius Randle is giving 100% credit to new coach Luke Walton for the team’s surprising start … saying the young coach is pressing all the right buttons.
The Lakers are 7-7 this year — not exactly World beaters — but when you consider they only won 21 games ALL OF LAST SEASON … the start is pretty impressive.
So when we got Randle out in L.A. and asked him what was making the Lake show great again … he gave props to the new sheriff in town.
Somewhere Kobe is breathing a sigh of relief his name wasn’t brought into this.
