🤣🤣🤣🤣 hell non
😂😢😮😅
JJ Redick ain't got nothing to lose by interviewing for the Lakers job or taking the Lakers job. It's not a Career Gamble, it a start to his Coaching Career.
He has everything to lose if they don’t perform well is he a head coach of another team? How many of lebrons ex coaches still head coaches in the league..? Ty lue only one I can think of so if they lose and they need an excuse jj not a good enough coach he outta there then outta the league even quicker but hey
Yea this will be JJ last head coach job and that's facts after 2 years😂😂😂
He get the job while lebron there he got 1 maybe 2 years to win
@@totnomina Mike Brown
@@totnominawhat you talking bout? Ty Lue, Mike Brown, Erik Spolstra, Frank Vogel. There’s plenty of lebrons ex coaches still coaching
It's best Lakers higher rajon rondo as a assistant coach his IQ is on a next level
I love that these guys are retired because we get to hear about all the BTS actions while they were playing. Comical as heck!
True so the same thing is going on now.
No they won't interview you KMart! What are you going to say to the players? "You know what Im saying?"
Lmfaoooooooooooo lmfaoooooo lmfaoooooo
Your content is fresh, keep it going!
Him being a coach period is a gamble, why not the lakers lol
Real Madrid, Dallas Cowboys, NY Yankees, LA Lakers, Manchester United. I would say they are the top 5 biggest clubs in their respected sport.
all mid
@@novelaego2404 Do your top 5 then
Celtics Are bigger than the Lakers.
JJ Redick is similar to Riley: role player, working in media, sharp talker, tight with current players. HOWEVER Riley got peak Kareem, rookie Magic, not high mileage LeBron, who WILL fire him.
Damm yall gotta chill with throwing a bron to the wolves like that. Bron only look the other way if yu not capable of being smarter than him. JJ is a brilliant basketball mind.
Bron not paying these coaches
@icecoldac3 noooo he absolutely gets people fired and has nothing to do with being smarter he gets mad when he don't get his way....if lebron was so smart and was the supposed goat "which he ain't the goat" but that's what people say, and always has a stacked team and if not stacked a good team why don't he win more? Listen the guy is a cancer 😂
@@MakaveliCVWconstantly have his name in your mouth. How’s it taste?
@@MakaveliCVW I can bet if bron got a coach fired it was for a good reason.
Brandon look like someones fresh out Unc with them fingerless handball glove and that Ross under armor shirt 😂
😂
Salute to Kenyan for the “soccer” shout out lol
Personally I think JJ will do a good job
I still think JJ making his podcast empire means he’s trying to be the top guy when NBC takes over for TNT
only candidate... just hire the guy
😂😂
Hire me I can get fired for millions!
We don’t want a pompous know-it-all fake ass Pat Riley white privilege fuckboy duke role-player as a coach
Love the bowling shirt, Gil haha
They made sure to drop the info when SHADSTRADAMUS wasn’t gonna be on Gil’s Arena
Today’s winner of worst fits awards go to Brandon Jennings surprising.
I been a Laker serious fan when Norman Nixion and Silk Wilk was my guys. Just everything about the organization with Jerry West as GM. I've been dedicated to the extent that when they played my hometeam the Bulls for the chip, I wanted my Lakers to win. But now LeBron's fingerprints are too often at scene of the crime. Its unstable. The past greats had class. From Kareem to Worthy,Magic and Kobe. Lebron is great and even though I got past his Jerry Curl dancing shhh. But after Udoka said he was spending nights at Diddy's house and he saying, nobody throws a party like Diddy. Fuuuuk Lebron with his batty boy shhh. I wish he leave the Lakers and give us back our team.
Did you feel that way when he came to the lakers
Kenyon swears hes gangsta😂😂
Gill with the Storm Jersey 🔥🔥🔥
Just checked Forbes LA is number #15 and Golden state is in the top 5
in terms of value about 7 to 8 bil!!!
There’s not really any better options other than JJ
There are no better options that would take the job. The Lakers organization is not respected because of ownership and the expectations are unrealistic. This is not as championship caliber roster but has championship expectations every year which is crazy. If they had maybe Trae Young or Paul George ina addition to LeBron and AD they'd maybe have a chance in the west but they don't have the star power or depth to compete with the wolves, thunder, nuggets, mavericks let alone the Celtics.
Where's Rashad
It don't matter who they hire. Bron been there 6 years and had 3 coaches now to be on his 4th. Unless you win the chip back to back years you are gone after year 2
Does not matter who is the HC of the Lakers. They will never go deep in the Playoffs. Expect the West to be so stacked next season
but they went to wcf in last yr
@@LoopRoadRecords Bro, the West is so different now compared to that year
@@LoopRoadRecordsand got swept what’s your point
It's simple if he takes the job and they are successful it would be worth it if he takes it and they aren't successful then it would be bad for the lakers but he probably still would get a chance to get on another team as a assistant it would be a definite spotlight on him being the lakers coach and they would want a quick turnaround for success
It'll work out great for JJ if they can win a ship. If not you will be sacrified. That is the Bron effect.
Try telling that to Frank Vogel
@@silewis9396 Bron it’s what have you done for me lately. Frank was just overdue.
You can get fired if you win a championship
Real Madrid, Man Utd, Barcelona FC, Man City...
Bro why in the hell is Gil wearing a bowling jersey???
Get J.Will on Gil’s Arena!!!
What’s with the glove Brandon ts slick spicy asl
A lot of former Lakers like Shaq are rooted for the Celtics because if the Celtics win I believe there are the tide or they surpass the Lakers in total championships. That rivalry is still there. I think what the Lakers plan on doing something disruptive if (when) the Celtics win by announcing their next head coach. Now I know this not gonna happen but let's say the Lakers announce their next head coach the same day the Celtics win the chip, Stephen A Smith would be pulling whatever hair he has left out as to what segment they will start First take with. That's how big the Lakers lure is.
Congrats Gil u were 1 pick in 2027 2 k24 draft by Orlando Magic, Jennings to Vegas Vipers, McCants in Boston, Kenyon or n Sacramento
I just realized Gil is wearing a storm jersey, Do you bowl Gil?
He’d be a fool to wanna play for Bron smh
He trying to coach you dummy 😂
Imo just put bron on coach/player role for a moment n hire jj as assistent coach insteed of head coach. Let the head coach spot blank until lebron either out or retire.
dont disrespect jj like that smh he has one of the highest iqs in basketball
That FO blew up that 2020 core team for big names. They haven’t been good since …
Kobe as a player-coach in them Smush Parker years would have run 1 vs 5 almost every game, on god he would have done that
Doesn’t matter it’s an opportunity, that’s like passing a job with skip bayliss. Regardless it’s an opportunity.
Perfect example why Kenyon is viewed the way he is and why his “legacy” is what it is lol
Kenyon it was a preseason game
The hate is crazy
I wish they would be more serious to many jokes
Great player often make bad coaches and vice versa... So seeing them dismiss him is interesting.
Coaches should be part of the salary cap
Coaching wise LeBron only wins when the coach is focused on the defensive end. I've never seen a coach that had a style or system of offense win with him.
Lakers
This should of happened when he first got there but either he has to choose to be the PG and be a play maker or pf and be a scorer. He can't do both without being in someone's way. To me you can't get the best out of guys
If he still plays like he 26 and you have 26 yr olds on the team that can't develop as scores or play makers because you won't get out there way so they can get use to impacting the game.
A coaching job should be graded based on the totality of the situation the franchise is in and how much they’re paying v. opportunity cost
The Lakers are an organization that is among the top of the league in terms of profitability for their owners, Jeanie and the Buss family.
They always make money as a franchise because they’re a historic franchise.
NOW the business side of things doesn’t necessarily always bleed into the basketball operations, management, coaching, and scouting
Although the Lakers are a profitable team, they are and have been poorly operated and managed since at least their last regular title in 2010 so 14 years of poor management. I know they won the bubble title but under any other circumstances I don’t believe they would have won. Bron had them so locked in in the bubble and they got hot and made their run. The won irrespective of the overall management.
This is evident because they’ve been hanging by a thread since that bubble title.
They have few assets, they’ve bungled many opportunities to get better as a team over the past decade.
The only major move that has worked out was the trade for AD.
Look at all the young guys that are all stars or key rotation guys they traded away who have had success else where
That is what JJ is walking into. Except you have an aging star to coach and a bad roster with little flexibility.
I guess if the money is good it’s a great job just for the fact that it’s LOS ANGELES
Who doesn’t wanna be in LA with tens of millions in the bank 😂
That organization has declined and is only getting worse with 90yr old lebum calling the shots
He is not calling the shots stop going by what ESPN says and social media
The Lakers job is a tryout for when they eventually get Glen out of Milwaukee
Lakers are #7 in the top 10 of sports teams!!!!
Kenyon was un-coachable. One of the reasons the teams he was on never won anything and he had a so-so career.
LeBron WAS ON THE TEAM WHEN THEY MISSED THE PLAY IN
When did they ever missed the play in?
@@BossQuismfs say anything 😂
David Blatt does not have a championship that’s completely wrong.
Gil’s a better player and better mind than JJ no disrespect
nobody has gone to finals as many as lakers: that is staggering 33 times and one win before merger is not included. all in all every 2.5 year s they are in finals. What about conference finals? it is like 40 times!!! you cant win every other day. bubble team was superb. and they could have easily gone back to back but for AD's injury!!! injury decides your fate. celetics are fresh while whole east is injured.
dallas had tough road compared to celtics: the toll of west coast.
What happened in the 90s
Man why Gil acting like he can’t turn this lakers squad around
It’s Real Madrid not Barcelona
Barcelona are huge too, 127m instagram followers, lakers have 25m, nba has 88m.
Annual revenue is $1 billion, twice as much as the lakers
I am a big fan of JJ Redick. I enjoy his Old man and the Three pod. I absolutely enjoy the Mind the Game pod with LeBron. I just don't think he's a good fit for the Lakers head coaching job. I hope he proves us all wrong but, I think Mark Jackson and Sam Cassell are much better options.
And that's why it will suck when Lakers don't win the championship and everything JJ has built and worked hard for will come crumbling down because if you fail LeBron as a player or coach you get all the blame and he doesn't show no love or support towards you anymore
Marc Jackson Marc Jackson Marc Jackson give that man a chanceeeee
Let Lebron be player coach
He basically has been ever since he left Miami
Cowboys, Yankees, Lakers and then Man U? Globally????😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And these folks get man at Noah Lyles😂😂😂😂
Man if it wasn’t for the bubble championship Celtics would be 2 rings ahead of the Lakers !! let that sink in SMH 😂😂
The Lakers could hire a reanimated Red Auerbach and still wouldn't improve the team unless you don't make changes to the roster. There are too many good teams in the Western conference better than the Lakers.
Jared Dudley would be good
His playing career is over. This is no gamble. This is at worst an experiment, and won't be held against him.
Gil you bowl? Play me league style best of 3!
Rondo would be a great coach for LA 💯
Good for JJ.. tired of these same old coaches getting tossed around .. bring Phil handy rondo Kyle korver and Scott brooks with you
Phil handy just got let go by the Lakers he was on DHam staff
@@JavierLopez-mx6bmPhil was here he d ham no wrong with Phil
How tf you fire your coach before finding a new one smfh.Thats not normal
It is when LeBron is on your team
They need rondo has bball iq and would be the ONLY CANDIDATE the players will respect ... jj a joke and his time on tv had made him.a low key enemy to a portion of the league
No most players would not disrespect coach. Rondo wouldn't get any more respect simply because he had a better NBA career. That's not how you get respect and JJ is behind the scenes friends with lots of NBA players off court. Some of us are privy to these things that happen behind the scenes.
Rondo wouldn't work because LeBron wants a puppet coach that will let him run all the plays which isn't necessarily a bad thing considering everyone says LeBron has highest basketball IQ of all time
I couldn't stand dudes who didn't want to practice but bitching in game when we losing.
So all this time it was JJ's job to lose and he never even had an interview?
Ever since JJ and LeBron started a podcast that was JJ's audition for the Lakers coaching job. It was a scheme to show everyone that he could draw up plays that LeBron approves of
Mentioning the best sports team without REAL MADRID Hurrh
jus last week yall all had a different opinion 🤨
1:26 JJ never been a coach he should feel great
no it ain't
Jj Gilbert rondo on the staff 😂
Mccants is a seer!
And Kenyon never gone be a Hof’er
A lot of people in the hall of very good.
Greatest power 🔋 💪 forward ever!
I know Kobe like Lebron wth u doing to my team bro 😂
*Ken* To Damn *Tough* 😒
They bet not hire JJ 😂😅
i dont like jjs face 😮
He's perfect no diddy
JJ Redick isn't a Head Coach a horrible move.... next⁉️
How do you know? How do you know until somebody gets an opportunity? Seriously. How does anybody know until opportunity comes?
Boston is beatable
JJ's going to get hired, to get fired, so all we're going to see is JJ, not have a clue what he's doing, while the countdown clock determines how much times left on his coaching career because once LAL fires him, that will be the end of his career as a head coach, just like Steve Nash, who also had no clue what he was doing, in the most embarrassing fashion = this season should be very entertaining
And JJ will get all the blame for not winning a championship in LA and also for not developing Bronny into the rookie of the year all star talent that LeBron has always told people Bronny was before he even finished his freshman year at USC
TAKE THEM DAM FITNESS GLOVES OFF... BROTHER'S GET MONEY AND DRESS FUNNY...
modern coach
I’d say have him become lakers coach just to take him off nba finals broadcasts. Now if they can only find a way to remove Doris Burke. This guy’s commentary is like oh he’s an ethical scorer. Please stfu
For it to be a gamble there has to be something for JJ to lose by taking the job. No one will miss his mediocre podcast and espn takes. He'd be a fool to not take the Lakers' money.
GayGay ain't got nothing to loseTHE LAKERS HAVE BECOME A SHIT SHOW
JASON KIDD
Mark Jackson is the only answer
if he was other teams over the last decade since he was fired would've hired him. His offense doesn't translate to todays NBA
Hey Gilbert hey I just want to say what's up and ask you why don't you get those girls that were put on the USA Olympic basketball team women and put them on your podcast and ask them these questions instead of these dumb girls that don't really mean nothing just want to cause trouble and stuff let's find out what the real stars have to say let's find out and hear it from there not from anybody else from them that would be an awesome podcast you know how much views you would get
NO NO ONE WANTS TO PLAY WITH LEBRON...BIG FACTS
Big loss of brain cells. All the best.
I love when Americans say shit like 'Lakers is the in the top 5 fan popularity across all sports' LOL
Shit is hilarious to hear
Lebron is the perfect coach for the Lakers
Didn’t Lebron post something about white coaches with no experience being hired over black coaches with yrs of experience in the NFL? Pepperidge farm remembers.😂
Nepotism always has been LeBron's modus operandi
If they sign jj Reddick, it shows that bron is the gm coach and player
The NBA has shown this ever since LeBron left Miami after trying to get Spo fire and then getting David Blatt fired after making it to the NBA finals in Cleveland. Shit Frank Vogel won a championship with LeBron and the Lakers and still got fired
👍
