Lakers are zeroing in on JJ Redikk to be the next coach of the Lakers (Shams)

[GoldenGlove]

I don’t believe LeBron had much insight into this, but I wouldn’t be surprised out of what was a pretty piss poor pool of options the Lakers assembled, it made sense to go with the one LeBron is connected with

Plot Twist: JJ takes the job and Bron signs elsewhere anyway

 

[Voice of Reason]

JJ literally has interviewed and connected with players from all levels on his podcast. Superstars to high level role players. A joint show with Bron.

Where is this narrative that he won't be able to relate to players? From watching his content with players I don't see there being a communication barrier there that people keep bringing up. If anything I see the opposite

Interviewing is way different than commanding a locker room as the head coach.

I had no idea

Exactly this lol

He might rub certain people the right way because he does come across as obsessed with talking and analyzing basketball… but in this sense it works because one of his players are also obsessed with basketball more than even him

"Bron absolutely, positively, had nothing to do with the hire"

Bron and Rich need to hire me as a PR guy, cause they on some real amateur hour wit they shyt

 

[jdubnyce]

There's no conflict of interest law for this?

Rules don't apply

 

[Voice of Reason]

I know Ham is looking at Bron funny style for starting that podcast now.

 

[NoMorePie]

Who do you guys think will coach the Lakers in 2026?

 

[Emoryal]

So LeGM can literally just do whatever the fukk he wants?

 

[Sccit]

LEBRON TO THE LAKERS IS THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE FRANCHISE

WERE LIKE A CLEVELAND LEVEL FRANCHISE NOW .. SUPER LIMP WRIST ENERGY

AND ITS NOT JUST GUNA BE HIS DECADE STINT HERE…. THE EFFECTS OF HIM BEING IN LA WILL BE FELT LONGGG AFTER HES GONE

I DONT SEE US HAVING A LEGIT TEAM THAT FUNCTIONS AS A UNIT WIT TRUE LAKER PRIDE UNTIL AT LEAST 2034

I HATE THIS WIT A PASSION

You're best player can't be 40

You're second best player can't be 40

This organization isn't serious about winning. They are serious about being relevant.

It’s a circus of an organization, and at least from what I’ve seen in 2000s pieces and from following them a bit more intimately during the mid 2010s, they still are that. Idk why ppl pretend like they wouldn’t be this without Klutch’s interference

Linda and Kurt Rambis basically had the same power as Jeanie at one point in time man

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Might as well complete the trifecta and draft Bronny at this point.

Jeanie, Rob and Jay Mohr are idiots.

Rich Paul is a less angry but significantly more revenant Dame Dash
