Lakers: "Yeah, this new coach we have we really didn't want, but here he is..."

Bron might as well be a player coach cause it is crazy that no one is breaking down the Lakers door for their HC position
It is a shitty short and long term job
I am surprised Sam Cassell is still not a HC in the league and if I am the Lakers I would be calling him

The Lakers' job can't be an attractive one for a head coaching candidate.
- You're on the chopping block the moment you get hired - this will be their fourth head coach in six seasons since LeBron James arrived in Los Angeles.
- You have no say in personnel decisions - those are seemingly made by LeBron and his cronies.
- You have to play "will he or won't he" with your 39-year-old star - he's constantly toying with the idea of retirement and the moment he's unhappy, he'll threaten to go elsewhere.
- You have zero future to build on - all your future assets have been traded to placate LeBron, and your best young player on the roster - Austin Reaves - is going to be a trade candidate this off-season.
- You're essentially going to be forced to use a draft pick - and playing time - on LeBron's son, a nepo baby who wouldn't even be considered a UDFA if he had a different last name.

Jeanie Buss and Rob Pelinka need to go and after that the new front office can trade Lebron away for draft picks and start rebuilding. This once proud franchise is just spinning it's wheels in mediocrity and it's time for change.

Amazing player and amazing executive. He's still the only player to win Finals MVP on a losing team.
RIP Logo.

you'll never find a more influential figure in NBA history, not only do you have his career but the GSW dynasty doesn't happen without him which led to the game changing to this day.
getting him on the Clippers made me feel like we'd actually behave like a real franchise for once. RIP.

Amazing player and amazing executive. He's still the only player to win Finals MVP on a losing team. RIP Logo. Who has the highest scoring average in a playoff series? Not MJ, not Durant, not Wilt, not Kobe or his longtime teammate, Elgin Baylor(Who's numbers are also nuts) but it's Jerry West. His average? 46.3 PPG. Without a 3 point line. And he's still the only dude to average 40+PPG in multiple playoff rounds. Arguably the best player to not win an MVP award, one of best 2 way guards ever and his only mark "against" him was the fact he played in the same era as Russell's Celtics. But dude played hard every chance he got.

You need to look at Logomans stats, I think people forget how much of an epic scorer he was.
Never won a league MVP but came in second 4 times and top five 9 times.
Probably a top ten player in both the 60s and 70s?

RIP
It's been reported that Jerry West has passed away at 86 years old. The Logo, his career as an executive would have made him a hall of famer.

KP officially out for game 3 I'm taking Celtics minus like 5 in Game 3 just for the odds, but I expect ref shenanigans. NBA always gotta make it interesting. And by interesting, I mean infuriating.

RIP. I still think in a perfect world, this is how the 2019-20 season goes down without Covid. Raptors vs. Clippers NBA Finals. Kawhi goes back to Toronto and wins another one there. Doc Rivers held that team back and we all know his history there.
