The 2023-2024 NBA Season

Why do you want to run that young man’s career before it gets started?

I don't want him at all. I'd prefer Borrego, Cassell or Wright.

Unfortunately, I don't get to make the hire.

Lue is out of the realm of possible HCs for the Lakers. Cross that one off the list.

Tyronn Lue is officially no longer a coaching option for the Lakers

The Lakers hiring Tyronn Lue to be their next head coach always seemed like an impossible dream.

you have jj Reddick to look forward too.

 

[redskinsfan1963]

Time for LeBron: Player Coach?

can,t do worse.

Ah crap!

 

[redskinsfan1963]

Ah crap!

I don,t understand why competent owners hire such incompetent coaches in la.

 

[Retroram52]

Because the Lakers owner family and the FO in general are a bunch of flippin idiots!

Like the one that won the title? Or are you talking about the one that only got to the conference finals?

You've got the competent and incompetent reversed in your statement. Events planner Jeanie and ex-agent Rob are in over their heads.

The fact that Jerry West was ever allowed to be a GM for another franchise pretty much says it all

It's not even that they make bad hires. It's that they are too impatient.

As I've posted before, since Phil retired, they have changed coaches every 2 years.

After Phil they hired Mike Brown who was fired after 71 games.

Then Mike D'Antoni for 2 years.

Then Byron Scott for 2 years.

Then they hired Luke Walton with the idea that he and the young players they had drafted would learn and grow together. Then they brought in Lebron and fired Luke. He lasted 3 years.

Then they brought in Frank Vogel, won a title and fired him after 3 years because he didn't want to coach Westbrook.

Then they hired Darvin Ham and fired him after 2 years.

You can't build a culture when you're changing coaches that often.

That's what I liked about the Hurley offer...it was for 6 years which shows they were looking at giving him time they hadn't given any previous coaches.

it will be another class in stupidity if they hire Reddick.

Not necessarily.

He has the upside to be a very good coach. Obviously knows the game inside and out. When you play in the NBA as long as he did as a sub par athlete, you have to be a very intelligent player.

How well he can relate to players, communicate with players and make adjustments remains to be seen. But I think he is well worth someone taking a shot on.

He might not work out. But he has the upside to be top notch.

he,s smart obviously being a duke grad.good luck to him.

Always a risk hiring an inexperienced coach.

But I do think he has the chops to be good.

 

[The Q]

and why no one should use "but (pick a player) agrees with me and he actually played" as a basis to "prove" you are right in a discussion.

Or why a story you don’t like from somewhere actually is now the justification
