**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[D StaXX]

CRINE

Momo is Jeanie's mouthpiece

& we're supposed to take her seriously? Jesus.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

So what time is the protest again?

 

[trynafeelmink]

dudes are staging a protest because Jeanie in her TWO YEARS since taking over hasn't been able to turn the franchise into a title contender... this fanbase has gotten more delusional then ever

She's making bad decisions man at the most monumental point in our history. The most beloved Laker in history quit on her cause of the shenanigans going on. How are you ignoring this is beyond me.

Well this is promising

Kcp started the season shooting well after training with this guy.. then kcp slumped.. had a session with this guy late in the season and then immediately after ended the season shooting well. Hard to attribute all of KCPs success to this guy but based on the little evidence we have it is encouraging

 

[tatayniDarna]

Magic Johnson was the smartest guy in this situation. He probably saw the writing. The stupidity. The buffoonery from the Buss’ and Rambis’.

I still think rob is the sharpest tool in the shed, unfortunately for him, no one likes him thus making him ineffective for any front office relationships.

 

[Lizakers]

Kidd

 

[nermindee]

Im ok with not throwing 5 years at Lou.. too long... and too much of a risk to be stuck with him that long if he sucked...

but I would have tried to pay him more for the 3 years the lakers offered...

and no to Kidd... this is the same dude who spilled water on the court and tried to get away with it... NO

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Reminds me of when Lakers fired Mike Brown.

Everyone thought the Lakers were going to bring back Phil Jackson, Mitch and Co even had a sit down with Phil.

Less than 24 hours the Lakers hired Mike D'antoni

Watch it be rondo

 

[Lizakers]

Watch it be rondo

Nothing can save that man’s broke *** shot

 

[youngwolf]

This is only year 1 of 4.

Whew.

 

[D_eezus]

This is only year 1 of 3

Whew.

4th year is a player option

[Lizakers]

Had pants jump the shark?

mike D is a brilliant coach. it was just a poor roster fit.

mike D is a brilliant coach. it was just a poor roster fit.

Brilliant but can’t find a way to win a chip yet.

He’s had great teams (Suns/Houston) and can’t figure out how to keep his offensive style from burning out.

 

[youngwolf]

4th year is a player option

He's due over 41M in that final year. No one is going to pay him anywhere near that.

He'd be a fool to opt out.

it's hard to win a title in this game unless you have a legit top 5 player in your team. i can name a few but the ratio doesn't favor them.

his best player to date is probably james harden, but he's been a perennial choker-same with paul- but despite of their shortcomings, no other team has challenged the KD era warriors.


the rockets shot %15 beyond the arc in game 7. 15%!!!...to put things in perspective, had they shot %27. yes, just 27% beyond the arc. they would've won and that's without chris paul.

yeah, i'd say he's brilliant/

MDA is basically a great offensive coordinator. He's lacking as a head coach. Even on offense he lives and dies by not making adjustments to his style.

 

[MVP]

 

[tatayniDarna]

i still think he's brilliant. peoples opinions are going to change once houston dethrones the champs and eventually wins the title...this year.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

At this point I'm not trippin on who the coach is, just want a healthy roster.

 

[sohi 23]

Lets hold on hiring that coach
