Luke Walton to coach the Lakers...

[The Giant]

I don't really get it, but maybe he'll be a good choice in developing youngsters.

He isn't much older than them.

[t-wizzle]

Seems like a good hire.

[The Giant]

Seems like a good hire.

Based on?

[pavyracer]

He did great with young Warriors. Wouldn't surprised be if Curry moves to Lakers to take over Kobe's salary.

[WalkingLuckCharm]

Based on?

knowing how goldenstate was done

[The Giant]

knowing how goldenstate was done

He might be a great coach, who knows, but it's hard to suggest he is based on what happened in Golden State.

JJ could coach that team while combing his hair.

[jjgold]

20–62

[lakerboy]

30-52.

[The Giant]

40-42.

[gauchojake]

50-32

[King Mayan]

I ate crabs and lobsters next to him once(captain kidds redondo beach)...

The way he cracked his crabs, I'm predicting 2-80.

I am honestly shocked that the Lakers pulled this off. Giant the reason you hire Luke Walton has nothing to do with his coaching, it's his ability to attract young premier players. He will do that.

[gauchojake]

Mayan isn't it a leg day? Why are you posting?

[jjgold]

Players make coaches and Mr. Walton is going to find out very quickly he's not an NBA coach

[CWD]

never seen such a mediocre player at college and pro level get as much out of the game as he has. lets see how high basketball IQ he really has now ?

What makes you think he will attract free agents?

[CWD]

i thought kobe didnt speak to teammates

[Ghenghis Kahn]

he'll get fired after the first season.

Good to hear that the hammies are pumped. Yoga tomorrow?

[gauchojake]

Because basketball players are dumb and think that he will be a good coach?

[The Giant]

I would have gone with:

Because basketball players are dumb and think he will share some weed with them.

How about, he will tell them where the best dispensaries are?

[pboozer57]

I mean lets face it, the lakers suck balls. The players always make the coaches look good. When the players suck the coach sucks. Luke should of just sat his ass back down as an assistant and waited for a better spot. His triangle bs he learned from phil might win him 20 games.

Hey G, both grow it out as much as possible and mousse it up to the max w/Paul Mitchell's best products: who ends up with the most hair covering their chrome domes?... Dr. Phil or jj?

Or... is it just a lost cause completely and both their noggins would just look like a baby's bottom that wasn't wiped properly on the sides during their last nappy change?

Enquiring & Inquiring minds want to know.



As for Walton: GOOD HIRE

Bump this thread 10yrs from now when he's still the coach so I can brag about how prescient I was in 2016.

This is the easiest answer ever. It's Dr. Phil. It's always Dr. Phil. Just check the parameter of his head, the hair is flowing and it's luxurious.

JJ has nothing.

Just like his bankroll. It's barren. Not a single hair follicle.

Walton privilege

[jjgold]

typical over reaction

we love to make stars out of people

He is no coach..lol he coached all stars

He will be fired real quick

[gauchojake]

Premier free agents do not want to play for retreads and brow beaters. They want young guys who have a nose for the game and can relate to the millenials. Lakers will land at least one big name this year. Who cares if he can coach?

[lakerboy]

Jake who will we land?

[gauchojake]

Good question. We could use a small forward. Maybe LeBron brings a championship back to c town and decided to bring his talents to LA? Is say the likely answer is KD

[pavyracer]

When Luke Walton retires from coaching he will be the coach with the most wins in NBA history. He knows how to coach young players something the old coaches don't know.
