  1. How can it be Tatum's playoffs when he hasn't even played well this postseason? And why does Broussard keep saying Tatum is the Celtics best player? Cuz this postseason he's been their 3rd best player &Jaylen Brown is All-NBA too; Tatum is better than Derek White regardless but Boston wins because they have the best five in the league. Tatum is doing nothing special not at all that's why it seems debatable in terms of who the Celtics best player is

  2. Problem with the Lakers the HC isn't really the HC. He can't do what he wants he has to do what LeBaby wants. They get fired so fast they never get a chance to even get their feet wet. Had LeBaby had his way the guy in Miami would have been fired and probably wouldn't even be a coach today. The guy in Miami is one of the better HC too. Why would a guy want to coach the Lakers. If you win you had nothing to do with it. If you lose, it was your fault. It's a lose, lose for a HC. There's really no future there to grow as a coach.

  3. I think the Lakers MUST hire a coach with some age discrepancy to LeBron. If it's JJ it will look that JJ is the coach of the team and that LeBron is the coach of JJ.

  4. Looks like the lakers success as of late has just been luck rather than skill in the GM department. Lebron came gift wrapped cause he wanted to be in LA. That then attracted Anthony Davis who wanted to play with Lebron. Fast forward to now, a good coach for LA might be rajon rondo. I heard Paul Pierce say Rondo has a very high basketball IQ. Bring in playoff Rondo. In fact never mind. I want Pop to retire and bring in Rondo to coach the Spurs.

  5. Let's be completely clear: reddick is only being considered because this is the way bron can actually be the coach without having to accept any blame for any coach-perceived failure.

  6. Lebron went back to Miami because Kyrie signed a max extension and they had the number 1 pick to trade for kevin love in his prime, let's be real. Lebron was jumping ship to the better team, like he always does when the going gets tough.

  7. I'm so glad that the league is pushing back on the predatory behavior of LeBron and the Lakers. LeBron is gonna retire with 4 and the Lakers are gonna go on a 10-20 year drought. It's beautiful for basketball

  8. Rob Pelinka wasnt even a good agent NOBODY liked him he was considered a snake he juss happened to land KOBE BEAN BRYANT so they had to work with him…he had NO FUTURE in nba basketball after kobe unfortunately passed away… Jeanie out of FEELINGS nd love for kobe SAVED pelinka nd gave him a job nd is ONLY keeping him there because of the blind loyalty for Kobe… our franchise is in
    SHAMBLES smfh its sad to say but we will most likely need NEW OWNERSHIP if she does not get it together

  9. Pat RIley wasn't "Pat Riley" when he began his coaching career (As an co-assistant coach for the Lakers) before becoming the fail-safe/fall back/plan B choice as head coach (Look up the story, its definitely 1980s wildness). If JJ Redick has "cred", a good grasp of how to lead men, and a style that is unique to his own self, then he probably could be good and has a chance to be "Pat Riley".

  10. Nick honestly thinks we believe Lebron has got nothing to do with this coaching hire 😂😂😂😂

    Wow the Lebron payroll isn’t even that smart is it
