I’m indifferent about Luke. At the least he needs to upgrade his coaching staff.

I just think it’s funny that the LA media (who loves Luke Walton) are so shocked that the FO aren’t bending over backwards to defend him. He should be getting evaluated just like the players. He has a lot to work on.

Luke's problem is he hired his buddies as assistants. Need some x' and O's guys instead of his buddies from Arizona.

We aren't losing him, this was just speculation by Windhorst because he thinks that Lakers not coming out and defending Luke means they must hate him and want to fire him. Ramona Shelburne already reported his job is not even a topic.
This.

Media selectively quotes Lavar, Twitter calls them out, they gotta blow smoke to distract from the fact that the Lakers have a 3-game win streak since they lied about beef.

Luke is safe for a while. Shelburne and the Kamenetzky brothers have a better ear on things than Windhorst.

Not the biggest fan of Luke but he's been better lately

I am liking him cutting Thotson's minutes.

I'd wait until we have a competent roster to see what Luke can do. it's unfair to judge him now

Hold up this elephant cac is covering the Lakers now??:dahell:
Windhorst is a national insider now. He has sources all over the league though he’s obviously more plugged in with the Cavs/Lebron.

There could be an agenda behind these “rumors”. The Lakers job would be a dream for Fiz.

The FO is not doing him any favors keeping Clarkson and Randle around. I don't know if they're trying to "cash in" on them or what, but they should move those two soon and not wait until the deadline or even worse, the offseason.

The Truth
We ain’t loss since Lavar put Luke in that hot seat. That might’ve been the spark the team needed
I said the same shyt to my homeboy last night

And honestly, I don't think he just put Luke in the hotseat. He actually lowkey called the team out and said they ACTING like they don't want to play for him. Kinda woke them up imo
