Mike D'Antoni has resigned from his position as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, according to a report from ESPN via Ramon Shelburne.
D'Antoni's disastrous season with the Lakers can be blamed on injuries to Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash, and most of the rest of the Lakers, but D'Antoni's style never seemed to work with the healthy players he had and the Lakers' disastrous season was, frankly, embarrassing. No word on who his replacement might be, but it's a safe bet that Kobe will have plenty of input into who gets the job.
