Is Mike Brown a good or bad coach?
-
10-31-12 09:22 AM #2
Among the bottom 3 in the league.
-

Totally agree. I cannot figure out why they hired that fool over Brian Shaw.

horrible. he'll be gone when the Lakers are 12-24.

Mike is an excellent defensive coach but no way does he have the charisma and people skills required to manage the ego's on the lakers roster. Sometimes at practice Kobe just completely takes over & Mike doesnt have the balls to do anything about it.

Mike brown is a bad coach for a good team and a good coach for a bad team if that makes any sense

Is Nash capable of running this triangle offense? Or are they even running it anymore? Nash and Kobe... damn... hate to say it... bring out the wheelchairs.
-

How can they run this half court slow down crap with Nash. I know it's early but they have not won or covered (0-8) this year.
-

it is a travesty that mike brown has won a coach of the year award. he absolutely has no clue on how to coach offense. hes won his games having his best player (lebron or kobe) do more coaching and directing on offense then he does. he is an above average defensive coach. I predict there will be a mutiny against mike brown this year and he will not be the head coach after this year.

terrible. He's a joke and should not even be in the NBA, nevermind coach a team with a top 5 player.

Great guy bad coach the Romeo Crennel of the NBA!
-

I'll have to defend him...
Now I agree he is a horrible in-game coach. He doesn't know how to make adjustments and create matchup problems effectively. His offense is slow and predictable.
But he's a good defensive guy that will teach his guys how to think for themselves and perform at a high level. He's a Popovich disciple that is heavy on fundamentals. Once his guys can learn the system and act without thinking they will be fine. LA still doesn't have the right pieces in place. I didn't like the Howard acquisition and I'm not sure it's going to work but eventually, they will be a tough out in the West because of Brown.

I'm not going to blame the coach for Nash letting Collison score at will, Howard missing free throws, Artest jacking up bad shot after bad shot, Nash having less assists than Pau, that's the players not doing their jobs. Maybe the coach didn't do a good enough job of preparing them for the game but he wasn't responsible for their terrible play on the court. Kobe had a very efficient game, incidentally. Artest is the biggest problem on that team from what I watched last night, Howard's free throw shooting is next. Coaching isn't in the top 5 of the problems to me.

Was a decent coach until he took the most favorable yet least skillfull coaching job in the league...coaching Lebron

Will make for good TV to see the Lakers keep losing.....ESPN will be all over it all the talk shows this team just looks bad.

Mike Brown is only a well known coach because of Lebron. If Lebron was not on the Cavs, Mike brown would of been there a year or 2 then been fired and now be an assistant somewhere or out of the league. Anyone could of filled the coaching position and looked half way decent. If I was the coach of the Cavs during the Lebron years its very likely I could be coaching the Lakers right now

This needs to be looked in the context of replacing Phil Jackson. Even if the Lakers got rid of Brown, their options would be few. Talk Jackson out of retirement or talk Coach K out of college basketball. The Lakers might just be better off with some affable guy like Brown who has no pretensions of being an elite super-coach. If somebody else comes in who doesn't have super-coach credentials, and they start trying to boss Kobe around, that probably won't work out any better than Brown.

You raise a good point, you either need to bring in someone that everyone respects and will listen to, or a guy that will accept being walked on by Kobe (like Mike Brown). A guy like Scott Skiles who pushes hard, even at the wrong times, would be disastrous. Originally Posted by pip2

Following the Lakers, living in the area, I like Mike Brown as the coach and think he's somewhat underrated. I think post #16 explains it very well. To add to that post, people forget how good the Cavs defense was when he coached there. That's one of the main reasons the Lakers brought him on. He had nobody there and they still had a lockdown D. His offensive coaching skills lack but Nash should help there over time. The offense, from the local I interviews I've heard, seem to be a fusion of the triangle Tex Winter used. This is a complicated offense so it will take some time to become efficient. I see the Lakers being a defensive staple with Howard and Gasol down low very soon. Just give this team some time guys, they'll be fine.

Watched the game close. Brown has no clue on offense, never has. Nash did not have the ball in his hands enuff. Once they allow Nash to be Nash, his assist totals will be unreal. Kobe will have to make that decision to let Nash distribute. Once that is done (if it doesnt happen they don't get past OKC) they have to stop letting that moron Meta fool shooting from distance. he should be inside rebounding and scoring junk baskets. If he doesnt accept that role he needs to be traded. Gasol will ultimately be camped out at the freethrow circle as a distibutor. with proper spacing, he will kill u with free throw line jumpers or be able to dump inside to howard for dunks. By the way, how many dunks did howard miss last night? unreal

The dude never played ball simple as that

uhhh no. its the players not being in the right system. as chuck said last night...you don't just have the most dynamic big man in the league in dwight howard and the best pure passing PG in the league in steve nash and slowly walk the ball up the court and drag out a slow half court offense. you push the pace and get out and run. with Nash's passing ability and Dwight streaking down the floor they could get any easy 10-15 points per game on the REGULAR from fast break points, on easy dunks/lobs.

how many times did you see kobe bringing the ball up the court last night with nash walking next to him like "hey um, thats my role pal wtf is going on" than they get to the half court and nash still doesn't have the ball and hes streaking the base line, trying to get open. its a complete mess the shit they are running.

It was obvious Mike Brown got out coached yesterday. Rick Carlile (probably spelled that wrong). Went into that game with one big (by the name of Eddy Curry) and came away with a dominating win. Princeton Offense = Nonsense in the NBA. I know people are saying its still early, but with Mike Brown, I dont see this team going very far (they will probably make the playoffs), but I dont see them competing with OKC for the West Crown.
