I’m indifferent to that. Wouldn’t hate it but wouldn’t necessarily love it.MVP mentioned it a few weeks ago, and now I see it. Doc Rivers will be the next Lakers head coach.

If doc is available that means he flopped in Philly with an MVP caliber center. Don't think many teams would have interest at that point

He’d be our best coach since Phil.

Or Morey just may want MDA back at the behest of Harden

Doc is Magics guy. Magic is in the ear (and a couple other crevices and holes) of Jeanie. Henceforth he will be the lakers coach

I think LeBron is wedded to LA for the next two years and the last couple days is just Bron putting the Lakers on notice that Pelinka is done after this season. 
And frankly, I would probably side with Bron/Klutch than Pelinka/Rambis/Jeanie.

I would cry.
Actually, nope. Coaches don't matter. It's pure coincidence that he has blown as many 3-1 leads as he has with prime talent on his rosters. That was just... bad fortune. Coincidence.

Bron don't do anything by accident, he's done it at every stop he's been at. Finally getting told no and he reacts like this. He ain't trying to compete for a chip anymore we already mortgaged the future for this 'era'. Can already see some of the Lakers media calling it out for what it is though. Klutch ain't going to win this tug if war for better or worse.

If you put it that way…I guess so.I think LeBron is wedded to LA for the next two years and the last couple days is just Bron putting the Lakers on notice that Pelinka is done after this season.

I just wanna know who initiated the Russ to LA talk. That move alone will determine who I side with

Pelinka sitting behind Lil Baby and Weezy at the dunk contest tells you everything you need to know.

This is my primary question. Is Bronny viewed as a can't miss, one-and-1 type prospect? Even viewed as an NBA prospect? LeBron's plan won't really work out if his son is a 3-4 year college player or has to spend multiple years in the G League getting ready.
Or is this LeBron messaging to teams that " If you draft my son, you get me as well?"
Most teams in the league would give up the last spot on the bench. If they get LeBron, who will likely still be an All-Star level player for the next couple of years.
It would be a smart move for a team to draft Bronny If they knew LeBron would come too.

I’m not sure Lebron will be that desirable of a free agent next summer. Not too many team want to bring him in and all the circus that comes with it.

He's going to be a very desirable free agent. He's going to be an all NBA player, still the most recognizable player in the league and he might be willing to play for less than the max If that team signs his son.
I do agree that as LeBron moves towards 40 years old, teams aren't going to be willing to mortgage their future to build a team around him.

I guess we’ll see. Signing Lebron and the farewell tour hoopla, the scrutiny, the media storm of playing with his son, not many organizations want that. That’s a total Hollywood thing that’s why I think it’ll all happen here.
