Shaq Publicly Questions The Lakers For Hiring JJ Redick Over More Qualified Coaching Candidates 

LA Lakers are now hiring plumbers for head coaches. Kobe Bryant, Jerry West, Jerry Buss, Chick Hearn, Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, and George Mikan are all rolling over in their graves. 😔

That in-season banner is hilarious 😂😂

Finally a Lakers legend speaks out against this circus

The main reason why JJ was hired is because he is the ONLY one that would attempt to put lebron and bronny on the same court for the 1st week of the season.

Lol Rich Paul is a weasel

So Reddick's got a Disrespectful Attitude. He's lied to the Media / the public. As a result he has simultaneously insulted the intelligence of whoever pays attention to this...or takes it seriously.

I’m glad Sam C. Is staying with the Celtics. The Lakers don’t deserve him.

Klutch and LeBron have turned the Lakers into a complete circus! Nobody takes them seriously anymore and nobody wants to play there anymore! The league will be better once that egomaniac is gone

Jeannie Buss is a pushover

Lakers are a joke! Their owner is a joke! She has to go. She leads with her emotions. Allowing one player to tell her who to draft hire and fire. Jeannie buss has to go

It is not a great Idea for J.J. to start off his coaching career with lies and cursing, Lakers take down everyone involved with them, what a mess! LeBron sucks the air out everything.

I wonder how many times his response of “I Don’t Give a F***” will be replayed by the media when there’s a losing streak or his tactics get called into question 😂😂

Shaq is 100% right. Jackson or Cassell should've got the Laker job. JJ was a few hours away from me for weeks begging his connections in North Carolina to help him get the Hornets head coaching job. He was soundly rejected by the Hornets franchise. It's obvious LeBron got JJ the job in LA.

The rest of the Buss children needs to take the whole organization from Jeanie

The picture of Jeannie Buss draping her body across LeEGO's lap, arms around his neck, told me all I need to know. She's getting results alright: everything that LeEGO wants.

JJ hasn’t even started yet and already lying and already trying to spin narratives.

The JJ hiring is worse than the Bronny draft?!? Please

Shaq should probably question JJ Redickkk over those comments that JJ Redickkk made to Halleemah Nash on the Duke Univerisity’s campus. JJ Redickkk and Ryan Garcia have more in-common than we thought, huh? 🤦‍♂️

JJ being hired wasn't "run by" LeBron, he ordered him to be hired.

JJ saying he and LeBron never spoke about him becoming head coach or insinuating LeBron had nothing to do with this is a slick move. JJ is protecting LeBron so that not if but when this goes left LeBron won’t be to blame because nothing is ever his fault. Too bad they aren’t fooling anyone with these boldfaced lies

The Los Angeles Lakers have been nothing but a joke since Jerry Buss passed away. Just 4 winning seasons since 2013 and 1 season with 50 + wins LOL @ LAL

Shaq was simply being intellectually honest concerning the Los Angeles James.[aka, Lakers.]

Reddick should have stuck with that 4th grade girls' team. He might be head coach by now.

I knew the whole time. I wasnt aware until late.

It doesn't matter who they hire as a coach, Lecry is the one running that organization anyway.

The one qualification for the job was…Will you do what LeBron wants…Will you follow the narrative. This means getting Bronny, running whatever sets LeBron wants and play who he wants. Basically LeBron can be the coach without any of the smoke. JJ checks all the boxes

Only a puppet would join a circus run by a clown

Jenny bus is not a billionaire that’s a family run organization so that money is cut several ways within the family

I can't believe they didn't conversate about it...if not how could it been avoided?... Speak it, Shaq!!!

That's a darn good question! Need anwering in my opionin! Waiting on the answers!!! Thanks Shaq!!!

Pyjama boy!

Lakers hang in season tournament banner - Celtics hang REAL NBA Championship Banner Same as comparing fake LeBron to real MJ

Fantastic segment

JJ had kneepads during the podcast 😂

Who else would want the job, seriously? Its a career killer.

The Old Man LeBron James runs that Circus is why JJ was hired to run that Team. LeBron is the HNIC!!!!

I agree that least thing on ur mind is how nice u r.

More people need to speak out about his allegations of saying racial slurs. At the very least, brothers have lost their jobs for far less. All Jeanie Buss is worried about is cashing out on the fanfare of the father-son on the court. He’s not even gonna help them win a championship 😂

Nah I gotta disagree with ShaqFu on this one. The Lake Show dont care bout chips right now. They care about "making history". About how much theyre being talked about and making sure they get into the limelight and the headlines. Thats it

Lol. They put that in season championship bubble banner up in the rafters with all the real championship banners from real legends is a complete mess.

I feel like the NBA became the WWE of sports

If Shaq hasn't noticed,alot of coaches aren't trying to come for the job.

Should have hired Mark Jackson

I didn't know Shaq had purchased the Los Angeles Lakers. Didn't know he had that kind of money. Now, as the owner, he can decide who to hire as a head coach. Right? 😅

I normally don’t understand what the h$ll Shaq is saying, but on this one, I heard him loud and clear and he actually made sense for a change!

JJ is just another drop in the bucket when it comes to ppl getting jobs with little to no experience. I thought it was crazy that Steve Nash got the job with the nets. Idk how mark jackson hasn’t gotten considered for another job, Sam cassel too.

The difference between Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston built their team from the Management down, while the Lakers are building their team from the player up!!

Hey, the acoustics in this eco chamber are badass, mind lending it to me when you not using it so I can make audio sound bites of caves?

Jeanie Buss is a great example of how people are willing to lose money they didn’t earn. The Vanderbilts when from the wealthiest family in the world losing everything in 5 generations. Nepotism is not fair but not inherently bad either. It becomes bad when the person benefiting is not qualified manage what they have been given.

It was a DEI hired. 😂😂😂😂 4yr Losing season

Always trust everybody to be themselves, but trust in the fact that you can see them well. - DMX

JJ probably was honest about his time table of not speaking to Lebum at that moment. Lebum told JJ in January Hey JJ be ready and JJ said yes master. Come June he did not need to talk to Lebum. Its that dam Lawyer's way of talking they are smarter than us you know. 😂😂

Why they didn't hire Nate McMillan or Scott Brooks as a head coach and made J.J. the assistant coach?

Good day

I always here the term white privlege, yet when it actually happens no one gets called out for it

Reddick doesnt understand how lebron will throw him under the bus. But first is Kobe's guy Pelinka, "didn't get free agents"

Well, if you had watched and listened to the interview with JJ and Rob, you would understand why they picked him over the other coaches. Not even a month has passed, and yet some people are hating as usual.

Lakers need to go in front of Lakers arena hold up signs saying Jeannie what are you doing? What are you doing? This is ridiculous not in a good ridiculous way. In the worst way ever. What a shit hole

JJ “Scapegoat” Redick

JJ bent the knee to King James with all of his praise to a 55th pick in the draft over their first round pick. There is also a huge disparity for the rookie contract offered for a late draft pick. There is going to be an epic Game of Thrones moment in Laker nation.

No, Lebron is managing the Lakers.... He is the owner of the Lakers...

Bron fans sometimes argue that he has never played for a great coach but that is because he has chosen not to. He has often through the course of his career been free to bounce to whatever franchise would have him and the closest he came to it is when he suggested Riley fire/demote Eric Spoelstra and return to coaching which Riley shutdown immediately. Seems Bron only wants coaches that he can control, not a coach with a championship pedigree who would challenge him.

Can someone tell me why mark jackson isn't coaching? But people with ZERO coaching experience is getting jobs. 🤔

Prince James, the worst thing that ever happened to the NBA smh.

Lakers got a message from LeBron and co when they sat courtside the Cavs game to show what happens if they don't do what they want

He was the only one willing to take the job. No qualified coach would coach lefraud and the fakers for any amount of money.

Nate and Scotty the new assistants are overqualified and will help JJ tremendously. This is all a joke though. But man, JJ has 2 top 5 assistants.

The answer to why it's simple, the Lakers hired JJ Reddick because that's what Lebum James wanted. That's it, nothing else.

What if JJ is successful who gets credit? It appears that many believe he will fail. Why so much negativity?

Rob Pelinka is on the Hot seat if this..... wait when this doesn't work. As long as LeBron is playing JJ job is safe

Wait wait wait does Shaq have qualifications professionally like schooling for broadcasting and journalism? How manu NBA players get those tv gigs just because of charisma and no baclground in the field besides being a player? So why cant jj?

I still dont know what that in season tournament was for.

So I guess the Lakers are hiring plumber's and toilet cleaner's

Come on shaq just responded about people's getting on bonny. HE said yall stay of his nephew. Let's just see what the lakers will do. JJ has assiant coaches now experienced coaches. One of them is Scott brooks the coach of Atlanta hawks. JJ will be fine.yall really hating on lebron that much.

This should have been a Jerry Krause moment RIP

The whole time or late?? Can’t be both!!

By the way, Pat Riley > Phil Jackson

Jim Boyln is more qualified and that ain't saying much

Look I think the hiring of JJ Redick is a bit silly but why does Sam Cassell have to be in the running as well? If the Lakers didn't want to hire him why does that have to be questioned? I just hate this thing that's been happening the last few years, pretty much always based on race, but some people think there is an obligation to hire certain people. A team should be able to hire whoever the hell they want, and if it ends up being a bad decision so be it.

1.25 speed or unwatchable 😂

It's doesn't take rocket scientist to reckonise the clown show the Lakers got going..And they propped up JJ Reddick as the smartest when he doesn't even have any NBA coaching experience.SMH

Shaq is nice. He could have just said Lakers is just a circus Le freak

Unfortunately the lakers are no longer looking for a title . Right now they just content with selling selling tickets and playing along with Lebron circus . Been a laker fan since 1989 . Even tho my presence won’t be missed im no longer supporting this fiasco. Will be rooting for Dallas going forward until the bron is gone

Jeannie has probably already ordered the LeBron WITH Bronny statue ...... PATHETIC

Why one word LEBRON

Looking Sharp dawg, looking like problem child. Get that bowtie going homie 💪💪

So...he brought up Pat Riley. What was Pat's experience level as a coach before he was brought in to coach the Lakers? No need to answer. Lol...not saying JJ will be that, nobody knows, but the logic and examples make no sense, per usual. Smh lol

Well, he can ask them, but the answer is easy... any respectable coach wants nothing to do with the Lakers and their circus. So the Lakers don't really have many other options...

Not just Sam...what about Mark Jackson?!!!!....this is a lrflop James doing. JJ will just br the one to hold the position as head coach, but leflop James will actually be doing the coaching so he can have his way

Jeannie Buss is acting like a lovestruck teenager...giving LeBron everything he wants!

Talent Talent Lakers just stop it 😮

I think the Lakers are on a down hill slide with no chance of coming up for a while!

Mark Jackson,Sam Cassell,Sam Mitchell, Phil Handy, and a host of others.Jeannie needs to sale her majority part.She has trashed the Lakers legacy!

if u saw that pic with Jennie buss leaning her head on the shoulders of lebum James you already know they are doing something behind close doors!!!

Shut up shaq! Say something bout bronny!

HOWLING with laughter. "Something doesn't seem right." Oh, my. The new Lakers slogan!🥸 Charles, THIS podcast alone is why you are #1 among all the others.

Hired JJ. Then draft Bronny. Maybe its time to rename the team Los Angeles James Family

Not saying Shaq is wrong, because I for one was hoping for Sam Cassell when the initial list of candidates came out ( less the pipe dreams of Ty Lue , & J Kidd) for My Lakers…but this is not something new : Bill Russell, Lenny Wilkins , Doc Rivers , Mark Jackson, Jason Kidd, Steve Kerr, Derek Fisher, & Steve Nash to different degrees of success all got their first NBA head coaching jobs without ever being a assistant coach

I know you read a lot of articles and watch a lot of videos. Please keep a log of those things when you read or watch them. So when you bring it up you can site it. So, some of us could go and check it out too. I notice you forget a lot of the articles and videos. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The same reason the Lakers drafted Bronny - Lebron
