Good luck thinking LeBron is going to listen to or respect a college coach. If you think LeBron is cutting and moving without the ball at this stage of his career you are outta your mind.
If anyone thinks the lakers are winning anything with old Lebron they’re crazy. They’ve set themselves back 20 years for Lebron. 1 bubble title and that’s it is pathetic
The Lakers should forget about the idea of winning an NBA title any time soon, not happening. Instead they should stop trying to cater to LeBron and start a major rebuild. Trade both LeBron and AD and just blow it up. The future is now!
The Lakers biggest problem is they DON'T move around on offense. They got all these dudes just standing around looking at LeBron. It's just painful to watch compared to the elite offenses.
That's a Lebron lead team. I hold the ball for 22 seconds, you stand in be corner and be ready to catch for my 10th assist. LeBron offenses have always been stagnant because that's LeSystem
Facts 💯 his only competition is the transfer portal. What he has built in UConn is amazing he needs to finish what he started. Competing for a 3 peat or coach an older LeBron and the Lakers attention
Why would you go to the Lakers if you have success elsewhere......if you don't get babybronbron a ring you are all but guaranteed to be the fall guy no matter what it's Never brons fault. U conn and go for the 3peat is way better....
Unlike previous coaches Dan will and should be given player personnel power. Fingers crossed as Lakers fan. Even not winning a title right away, at minimum we need to build a winning culture for the future after LeBron. He's the best guy for the job in that regard.
The fact they even talked about JJ reddik shows how bad the lakers are. Can’t hire a guy who has never coached off the street. Lakers ain’t winning anything as long as Lebron and AD are there
Hurley is the coach the Lakers need. Experienced and the best available out there. Lakers need to build a culture moving past Lebron. They can't afford to get a JJ and keep changing coaches every two/three years. The franchise has to have consistency over the years and start thinking life post Lebron. I hope it becomes reality. That would be a solid move.
Hurley has a temper. He's a screamer and a yeller. You can do that to 18 and 19 year old kids, but that won't fly against grown men who are millionaires in the NBA. Hurley would have to change his style. Can he?
@philb.1502 As long as he tones it down and doesn't do it in a disrespectful manner. Bron even said he likes a tough coach that can tell him how it is, like Lue and Spolz. AD and team didn't like Ham for different reasons and one would be that he didn't show enough passion and anger on the sidelines. Tough love in showing the team how to play the right way is exactly what this team needs. Ham didn't have the discipline and it translated on the court
@Jayholmes518 It's still a risk for the Lakers. Hurley can coach, but I'm worried about his relationship with the players. The first time, he blows his top against a rotation guy, and the guy goes back at him. How will he handle it?
@@philb.1502 Yeah I hear ya. As long as he doesn't lose the locker room like Ham did. If they'res respect on both sides they should be fine. Both Ham and players were taking shots at each other during post game interviews. They didn't repect him. It's good that a coach shows some fire. Players respect that.
START THE REBUILD! WE'VE PEAKED IN THE BUBBLE! LEBRON ADMIRABLE AS HE'S PLAYED IS DONE! AD INJURY FREE FINALLY & PLAYED ELITE & WERE STILL A PLAY IN TEAM! BLOW IT UP 💣 START OVER! YES WE'LL STRUGGLE FOR SOME TIME! BUT WELL BE BACK ON TOP AT SOME POINT! HELL WE'RE THE FU--ING LAKERS!
If lakers hire this guy cool I get it do some different and risky .. but also understand that you wanna do this with a young team like they had when they Lonzo Hart Clarkson Ingram Randle Nance Kuzma Zubac young squad .. this current team is old and aging by the second .. getting him thinking he’s gonna be able to turn it around with Lebron AD plus let’s say even a Donovan Mitchell won’t be enough to host a 1st round playoff series .. do this if u know Lebrons era is ending sooner than later ..if you wanna draft Bronny in 2nd round or bring him in jus to please lebron and get another 2 1st round exits and make money then don’t even attempt to re start the culture movement cuz it ain’t it
Stop Reggie. There are more minus than good. Dan stay at UConn until a better job comes along. As long as Pelinka and Lebron is there, they are going nowhere.
This could well be a worthwhile gamble for the Lakers. It makes little sense for Hurley. You take over that hot mess of a team with 40 yo LeBron and his no offense son? Good luck firing or trading Bronny . You set Hurley up for failure. I guess if he wants 7 million for a one year or 2 job and goes back to Connecticut it might work.
if they get this guy , I don’t think the lakers would care what Lebron thinks or says at this point. He would be hired for long haul and that doesn’t include Lebron. Bronny will be given a chance but he’s not a Chris Paul clone. Hurley won’t come unless it’s a long term gig.
Lakers are the worst on player development..I think Dan can come in and get the damn other players ..the players off the bench..the other players not named lebron or Anthony.to be successful..Denver..Sac..okc.. ect work on making their other players find a role..not just out there..standing around...
Hey can anyone give this message to the Lakers I know a great coach who has won 6 championships and will win his seventh next week He is a legend his record speaks for him Oh he is a local YMCA head cheerleader coach?
It doesn’t matter who the coach is….Lebron isn’t going to listen to him anyways … the offense isn’t changing because Lebron only knows 1 offense and good luck asking him to defend😂
Hurley should stay where he is. He's a college coach. He just coached UConn to two national championships. He's in charge there. If he goes to the Lakers, he has to kiss Lebron's ass. He can't scream and yell at NBA players like he did all the time in college. He has a temper! That won't fly in the NBA.
Nobody should want to coach the lakers until lebrons gone. Hes 40 and not worth the headace and is often a liability on the floor. You cant win with this roster and you will be the scapegoat when you get knocked out of the first round.
Dan Hurley is a TRUE Coach that likes to play OFF BALL MOVEMENT BASKETBALL. What makes Lebron simps think this is good for LEBRON LOL ITS GREAT FOR LAKERS but for Lebron, it means less time with the ball in his hands and less chances for him to fill in his empty stats. He ain't staying if Dan is hired.
Lebron is already the NBA career points leader. Durant is the only active player in the Top 15 and is 12K+ points behind him. At this point, he’s sticking around to play with Bronny and get more titles. The fact he’s ok with load management nowadays means that he wants to win titles and not just pad stats anymore.
@@SomeBody-ph7rp Of course he is ok with Load management that is his way of CHEATING his way into the "longevity" narrative. LeBron hasn't played a full season since 2018. The whole "Year 20 this" "Oh he is in Year 20" is A LIE
@@SomeBody-ph7rp”Already”? He’s played 20+ seasons as ball dominant calling his own number whenever he wanted to. Why wouldn’t he be the all time leading scorer?
I think you need to realize who you are in life. Honestly you seem more like a hype man than a hater based on this comment, so I suggest you accept your role of being a hype man cuz you're pretty good at it
@@80timager23 First of all dude, I've been watching the NBA for 41 years, so I know WHO can play and WHO CANT! Watching the NBA longer than you've been alive! Secondly, I know you're a weirdo or creep or probably both by the way you new dudes use the "term" casual. And back to my original point - you got a guy making $50 million dollars a year, $50 million!!! And that same guy can't make a 3 when the nearest defender is below the free throw line in the paint!! That ain't got nothing to do with coaching!
every time the Lakers aquire “better shooting” those shooters forget how to shoot.

Great insights Reggie!
NBA players can get a coach fired, NCAA players can't. Especially now. We've seen winning coaches get fired often in the NBA recently.
