Former Los Angeles Lakers coach Mike Brown has had three months to ruminate on his former team and its struggles amid the additions of coach Mike D'Antoni, Dwight Howard and Steve Nash, and the departure of Andrew Bynum. Brown says despite a slow first half, he sees a Lakers team that can, with some work, turn its season around. "I think it can be done," Brown said Wednesday in a telephone interview with "The Herd with Colin Cowherd" on ESPN Radio. "Mike has a different philosophy, and it's worked for him the many years he's been coaching in the NBA. And I'm sure he'll figure it out, which he's been doing. "He's been making some adjustments as time's gone on. So I think it's a matter of time before they get it going." Brown noted he was skeptical when D'Antoni, upon his hiring, said the Lakers would implement a run-and-gun style offense and score in the 110-115-point range -- "be the old 'Showtime.'" "I did not feel that was a running team," said Brown, who was fired in November after a 1-4 start to the season.
