[:: LAKERS 2014 THREAD | POLL: Who Should Coach Next Year? ::]

[pmatic]

If LeBron isn't there, tank again and roll over the cap space to 2015.

Jalen mentioned Durant getting out and Russ and Love ending up in LA within 2-3 years. Nail this 2014 pick and we'd have somethin brewin.

And as P alluded to, back to back top 5 picks AND cap space.

did they cover up the banners with kanye and kim's faces?

I thought Lakers don't have a 2015 pick

 

[pmatic]

Top five protected in 2015.

Wesley Johnson this pre season continues to be a disappointment

I really think this is his last shot in the NBA and if he does not improve this season with the Lakers he done in the NBA and will be playing the rest of his career in Europe or China.

See we still trying to party like it's 2009. Just missing the Machine now.

Two tank years in a row? My heart.

 

[CP1708]

Two tank years in a row? My heart........ Will be filled with joy when we land 2 19 year old studs to build around the next dozen years and combine with Kevin Love and Rajon Rondo or Russell Westbrook. I will endure.

Well said.

You guys think there's any chance Pringles gets canned this year?

During the season? Unless Phil says to Jimmy he wants back in for 4-5 years, absolutely zero chance.

I hope so. I don't believe the Lakers can win a title with him as head coach. Don't get me wrong, it's possible. And for the benefit of the franchise I hope it will happen. But seriously doubt if will. Besides, I can't stand dude.

 

[pmatic]

Eh, kind of hard to see with the money owed to D'Antoni (and Mike Brown).

Maybe if things go nuclear bad though.

How many can win a head title though. A "championship coach" is something to scoff at most times. There are good coaches, and bad coaches. What many see as bad in MDA, he actually changed the landscape of the league, and saw it changing before everyone else. His problem is rigidity, but let's not act like he didn't alter his coaching as he got more familiar with the personnel on the team.

Phil Jackson
Pat Riley
Eric Spoelstra
Gregg Popovich
Rudy T
Larry Brown
Rick Carlisle
Doc Rivers

Those are the only guys who have won titles in the past 20 years. 8 in 20 years. Two are retired, One is about to retire, One sucked with the Lakers, one can't manage players anymore, one is a terrible coach who is driven by a big 3, and two will not be available in the near future.


Learn to love MDA his sarcasm and douche-baggery are a thing to admire
