      Yeah I'm pretty sure that's gonna show how easily he will unhinge. imagine in January when the lakers are below .500 and he's on the hot seat. How will he be like then? Season hasn't even started yet and he's already dropping the F bombs on his first press conference.

    I'm want to be optimistic when it comes to JJ as a coach. Since he retired as a player I've had a chance to listen and see his basketball IQ and knowledge. And he appears to have the character and qualities for a coaching job. So I'm hopeful and looking forward to upcoming season. And to be honest as a Lakers fan looking at the all the teams in West, if we just make the playoffs, It'll be a successful season in my eyes.

  • @Eric-zk2hu
    @Eric-zk2hu 23 дні тому +2

    JJ can't afford to make any mistakes in strategy decisions in crucial situations. One or two missteps and Lebron will check out, he may not take over the huddle and shove JJ aside but he will not listen and will be visible to all the other players and dissension will boil up among the team. Especially any defensive adjustments that don't work out. JJ may have absorbed defensive concepts from his long NBA career but he was an offensive specialist and could not play much defense.

    The way I'd handle Lebron is to bring him into the coaches huddle during timeouts. He's one of the smartest basketball minds in the league, has a pulse on the players , the opposition, and the flow of the game. Why wouldn't you want his opinion? In the end, JJ should make the final decisions and learn where and when to rely on the experience and knowledge of Lebron and his other coaches.

    When the Lakers start next season 0-13 JJ will be cussing out everyone not names LeBron, or, Bronny. And yes LeBron WILL BE the only voice in the huddle and when things go belly up JJ will be the one to take the heat.

    As a Laker fan I’m not big on the JJ hire. I think it hurt us in free agency. We keep hearing how no one is going to out work JJ. Yet he won’t take the opportunity to get some coaching experience by coaching summer league. Lakers may have made a big mistake here.

    Act like JJ didn’t spend 15 yrs living in the NBA, seeing how various coaches and franchises handled all of these things.
