Who will be the new Lakers head coach?

[CatDawg]

ESPN radio reporting that Rudy will resign tonight due to the team play and health reasons.

So whom will take over.

[4leaf]

I dont know, but if they offer Pitino enough money he'll go anywhere.

[CatDawg]

I didn't even think about Pitino but that wouldn't surprise me. I just can't see him leaving the college game again.

[crazytaxidriver]

I personally don't care who they hire, I just wish that they would send Kobe home. For some reason the boy just get's on my nerves.

[CatDawg]

Maybe they'll make Kobe what he really wants to be. A player / coach.

:lol: :lol:

[crazytaxidriver]

Better throw in a GM also lol..and that might satisfy him lol

[CatDawg]

I don't think anything will satisfy him.

I know basketballer loves him.. But I feel ya taxi.. Great player but his spoiled attitude overshadows him abilities..

[Hip-hop Box]

Who cares long as he teaches Kobe cheese a lession or 2 or 3.

[blackcat]

They just said on ESPN Phil Jackson may take the job again.

[4leaf]

I was just joking about Pitino Catdawg. Just still sour about him selling out at UK.
I dont know if Kobe will let Phil Jackson come back.

[youknowwhoibe]

I doubt Phil Jackson will come back because truthfully Phil doesnt like to coach teams that he knows wont win a championship. People praise him for his nine rings but all he really had to do is play a peace keeper because he always had the talent.

I say Lakers keep an intermin coach till the end of the year then sign Nate McMillan whose contract with the Sonics ends this year.

[Rondo'sTheMan]

Who cares about the lakers head coaching job? the smartest man (but one i also hate) was dukes head coach mike whatever....he turned down the job when it first opened up...why? because without shaq this team sucks...u got a .500 team that has a superstar who is the most selfish player in basketball... as far as a coach, is there really ne big name coaches out there that arent content with their jobs...i say u stick with the interim head coach and get a college guy right after March Madness...

Poor lil Basketballer lol..

I hate the NBA nowadays. It's all gone downhill, taking kids out of high school, and giving them multi-million dollar contracts is bullcrap.. What 18 year old is goin to know what to do with 1,000,000 bucks other than have a good time? Now these guys are nothing but spoiled brats and have given the NBA a bad name IMO. People like Kobe, Lebron, Garnett, and whoever else should have stayed in school, learned some manners, and maybe the NBA wouldn't be having all these problems. I used to like the lakers until they got Kobe. It just makes me sick..

[CatDawg]

Early reports say they want Jim Calhoun and / or Phil Jackson to return.

[BCF4L]

Check this out. This could be the answer to the question.

[CatDawg]

I really hope Phil doesn't comeback to the Lakers.

[go panthers!!!]

well i dunno...they were doin pretty good w/ him for a little while

yea i heard somethin on phil comin back too...

[VonWafer_FSU]

as a big time laker fan its easy to say phil jackson will not come back....look for Flip Saunders to take the coaching job next year

[CatDawg]

I really expected the Lakers to be close to getting someone by now. I'm starting to think they will wait until the end of the season now.

[VonWafer_FSU]

its offical now, Frank hamblem will be coach the rest of the year for the lakers

[CatDawg]

Did you see the assistance coaches?

[VonWafer_FSU]

its pretty much the same assistant coaches, they imporved kurt rambis' position catdawg

[CatDawg]

I thought Kurt and Brian had both left the team and were returning now. Guess I thought wrong.

[VonWafer_FSU]

brian shaw is now an assistant coach

[CatDawg]

But was he already with them or not. I had thought both he and Rambis were alway from the team this year. And were now returning.

[VonWafer_FSU]

theyve always been with the team, just now there recognized as assitant coaches

[CatDawg]

OK I thought they left when Rudy came on board.

Thanks VW

[VonWafer_FSU]

[CatDawg]

I owe you one.

[VonWafer_FSU]

[CatDawg]

No problem.

[VonWafer_FSU]

[CatDawg]

Lets just hope they don't get them.

[VonWafer_FSU]
