Even though the Los Angeles Lakers have not had the best year, finishing only 26-56 for the season, their team spirit must be very high. While most talk about the organization has been about the second pick they have in the 2017 NBA Draft and the fact that they will most probably select Lonzo Ball with that pick, their young talent has taken to Twitter to roast their coach, Luke Walton.
The second pick of 2016 NBA Draft, Brandon Ingram and the young big-man Larry Nance Jr. found an old picture of their coach and decided to roast him for it.
Ooooooo baby 😂😂💪🏽 https://t.co/Mt4r6TBz3C

While these things might not be acceptable for old-school coaches like Gregg Popovich, with a young coach like Luke Walton, these things are more than acceptable and probably just good fun between teammates and their young coach.
This might increase the chemistry inside the team, that has been severely damaged in the past, especially under coach Byron Scott. However, we can definitely see that things are done differently since the young Walton has been introduced as a coach.
While results might lack, there is definitely something good brewing in Los Angeles. Results will come, especially when we consider the whole appeal of Los Angeles and the Lakers franchise, but it is definitely nice to see that everything is out in the open and nothing, even your coach's embarrassing old pictures, are off limits.
