man i hate when bernie's name is brought up when he was doing his interim duties. dude coached 5 games. And even then, more than half of those games, mda was already seen coaching his practice with crutches

no one is saying MDA is phil or riley or pop
if phil or riley or pop wanted to coach us for a respectable price it would be a no brainer but they dont
mike dantoni was/is one of the best coaches available right now, all the other top coaches are retired or have jobs
if we keep up the losing and draft a great post player that needs to be developed like embiid then we let dantoni go and find a guy who's better at working with a high usage post player
if we get a guard then theres nothing wrong with keeping dantoni going forward.

I don't see how any Lakers fan could complain about D'antoni right now considering what he is getting out of that god-awful roster.

Let's talk about your god Mike Andrew D'Antoni
*drum roll*
An astounding 52.5% much better than Lionel Hollins a massive 1.5% points better.
However, in the playoffs Mike Andrew D'Antoni is disappointing 44.1% having lost his last 8 playoff games.
Lionel Hollins is 51.4% in the playoffs.
Lionel Hollins may not be a championship caliber coach, but i'd take him over D'Antoni any day. I don't have an answer for who the next coach should be, I just know we aren't going anywhere with MDA.

Yes I am, those were his last 8 playoff matches. If you want to talk about the time before that he lost 4-1. So in his last 13 playoff games he's won once.

if there is a better option than mike dantoni then we will go for it
right now there isnt, if you want dantoni gone go knock on phils door and convince him to come out of retirement
lionel hollins got fired after his best season as a coach, there is no logical reason to think he is a better coach than dantoni

Right now, no point in firing him. In the offseason, I look forward to his dismissal. The Lakers did knock on Phil Jackson's door, he got up but was turned away in favor of your current offensive guru.

hiring dantoni on a normal coaches contract > giving phil a coaching job + mitches job a way higher salary and be okay with our head coach skipping every road game
if you think picking dantoni over phil was purely based on coaching ability then you are very misinformed

If you believe that, so be it.
I would rather have Phil Jackson, i'll leave it at that.
Enjoy the rest of the season.
Go Lakers.
