    I heard it was Coach K, with Phil, Nate, and Mike D as assistants.

    Rumors are Dwight Howard wants Phil to come back to coach the Lakers.

    How did Mike Brown last even this long in the NBA coaching Hall of Famers?

    Does he have naughty videos of owners?

    Help me out here.

    I don't want Mike D to go to the Lakers

    I still hold out hope he comes to Portland in a few years.

    He'd make Lillard a superstar.

    There's only a handful of coaches that meet that criteria

    D'Anotni is an offensive genius. His strengths and Lillard's strengths match beautifully.

    I still want it to happen.

    I've heard Mike Dunleavy might be going to LaLa Land.

    D'Antoni, IMO, was the perfect coach for Lillard and Leonard.

    D'Antoni is the perfect coach for every player. He doesn't hold them accountable for defense.

    His P&R system would have put their development, offensively, on the fast track.

    Lakers win first game under Bernie Bickerstaff!

    When we had him I said he wasn't a bad coach, and that Kaleb Canales replaced McMillan just because of his looks, but would anyone listen to the jlprk? Noooo, you all said Bernie was too old so he had to go. So we lost the next Laker Head Coach!

    Next time, listen up!

    What's also sad in this article is the lack of interest under Phil Jackson's previous assistant coaches that aren't even mentioned.

    If Phil Jackson is burned out on coaching then he is. He won't take the job again. Leave him be Laker fans. What's sad is that Laker fans suspect to having a winning season every year. Well, its not reality if there isn't the coach, or the players, to have it every year. Get over it.

    Bickerstaff has been quoted as saying he won't be the Lakers Head Coach because thats not what he wants to do and its not why he went to coach in LA.

    I was just exaggerating that we booted out the next (acting) Laker Head Coach.

    Anyway, I don't get why they signed Steve Nash, if they aren't going to institute a Suns-type offense, which makes him look like the best PG in the league. He can accelerate everything, but not in the Triangle.
