My take is that the Lakers had planned to offer Coach K the job hoping that he would quickly accept. However, I think coach K told them "no" "but I'll play the advisor for your search."
Reddick/Sam Cassell are your coaches, they know the game of basketball better than most of the other candidates that are still available, they are both long term coach's that will not cost you initially, they are players coach's and will manage the locker room along with LeBron and AD's input. We must get two real bigs next to AD. (ie 2020 chip), Valanciunas, Drumond, Dwight etc, we need a six man (Bobby Portes, Dramond, for additional support etc.) We need a two way guard to contend with Jamal Murry and Anthony Edwards..... Demar/Caruso/Donovan/Keli Ubrea/Marcus Smart/JaMonte Murray/ Brogden etc. We have more than enough assets and picks to make this happen. Doc Rivers, Ty Lue, Chauncy Billups, etc none of which had ever coached prior to there position with the exception of being one assistant amongst many. There are enough picks, contracts, mid level and minimum money to make it happen.
speaking as a lifetime Laker fan on JJ being our head coach... HELLLLLLLLLL NAWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!! He will get zero respect...from us or veteran players!! lmfao
I’m not a Lakers fan but I fucks wit Bron Bron. I’m life time Spurs fan. I do respect JJ knowledge but he won’t get the respect from everyone. He’s damn near there Peers 🤣
They can still get a young guy or 2 from lebum they wait another year and they may not get anything for him take the lost now instead of a bigger lost if they wait..
JJ Reddick has been trying to get coaching jobs for 2 years now... If Toronto amd Charlotte, two of the worst teams in the league, don't want you.... What are the Lakers even thinking about him for??? He has never led men. Who is he going to motivate beyond Lebron?? What's his defensive philosophy? He never uses his little whiteboard to write defensive concepts. He barely talks during nba telecasts. But, y'all call him a genius. GTFOH We all have friends who are really funny, but they could never be comedians. JJ Reddick can keep writing his basic pick and roll sets on his podcast, he's not an NBA head coach. Period....
