The Lakers met with Byron Scott twice this week, sources said, to discuss last year and philosophical issues going forward before making the decision not to pick up their option on him Sunday - Ramona Shelburne
Phil wanting him is what boost his stockYea but you could literally say the same thing of Kerr when he was highly sought after with 0 experience as well. All teams wanted him. Literally same as Walton. Wins a championship right out the gate.
Its one thing to be old school as a coach its a whole different thing to be stubborn not willing to adapt to your personnel and not connecting to young talent..And I'm an older dude saying this..Byron wasn't a bad couch he just lacked talent and coached an awful team.
@ComptonPrince
has a legit point, @LiCeNseD To BaLL
. I know it's a not a popular take, but 'unpopular' doesn't mean 'incorrect'.
And you're approaching this with absolute thinking, btw. All or nothing. Some or none. "Sam Mitchell. Alvin Gentry. lolololololol"
Head coaching in sports is extremely... vanilla.
The fact that Walton is so highly regarded with literally ZERO head coaching experience (being a sub for Kerr is NOT head coaching; he didn't build that roster, implement anything he wanted to implement, talk about who to draft/trade for, etc) is exactly what the point is.
Just because there is Mitchell and Gentry doesn't mean it's the argument is debunked; it means that head coaching gigs aren't LITERALLY 100% white no matter how often it seems like it.
If so, my bad then.Nah I'm not being absolute, I agree there is a racial component to a lot of head coaching vacancies across all sports.@ComptonPrince has a legit point, @LiCeNseD To BaLL. I know it's a not a popular take, but 'unpopular' doesn't mean 'incorrect'.

Why does he get praise for being this "great" assistant with potential but Jarron Collins don't?Compton is comedy
@ him saying Luke's only being hired because he's a famous white person
Disagree but ok....Because Luke's been more visible. That doesn't necessarily mean he's the better coaching prospect, but it's the reason why he has more hype. It's not a case of two coaches and one being a white guy with a famous last name.
In the end it's all just taking small examples and jumping to conclusions about their coaching ability... But in this case, Luke's given us more visible examples than Collins.
because his own team (the people who know both their coaching abilities the best) chose luke to replace kerr for half the season over jarronWhy does he get praise for being this "great" assistant with potential but Jarron Collins don't?Compton is comedy
