Bring in Cassell as HC and JJ as an assistant if he would go for that. You get the guy who has a good rep for player development in Sam plus a guy that clearly will gameplan tirelessly in JJ. Both of those guys are well respected and seem like they can command a locker room. Cassell has deserved a job for a while, and JJ gets his foot in the door and can use that experience to springboard into a HC job later. They don't need one guy who can do all of those things they want. They need a staff who can collectively do all those things.
If the Lakers were catering to Lebron Ty Lue would be the coach and we wouldn’t even be here.
@@DJ-ys9pv bro, Lue is still with the Clippers
@DJ-ys9pv Ty Lue would've been coaching and Kyrie would've been their 3rd star
@@everythinglakers1713 They're saying if the Lakers had "catered" to LeBron in 2019, they'd have hired Lue instead of Vogel and still have Lue.
I like the idea of Cassell and JJ. Two former players that know the game and played in big moments. And both coaching would be great on the same team.
Sam Cassell is the one I’d pick of the 3
Which is dumb bc u don’t know them or their coaching
Yes, experience as an assistant paid his dues. What had jj done nothing no experience at all. If they hire him, there goes the locker room. JJ should not be on the list at all. If they do, I'm done . No mention of Mark Jackson dumb Jennie and Rob would only hire someone with no experience.
@@tkbaku3036 either do you.
I don’t mind Sam Cassell
JJ is LABrons boy he will get hired
@@MaxAndersonn He might just get the assistant role as well
I forgot all about Sam Cassell
@@MaxAndersonn I think its more for the assistant role, stop letting the Bron hate get to u lmao
Same
The Lakers are turning into a joke. It’s time to fire Pelinka. Front office is the problem.
Give LAbron all the power after he fires Pelinka he can be the player GM 😂
@@MaxAndersonnCan’t be worse than Jordan 😂
Agreed I'll give pelinka credit for that 2022 mid season turn around but other than that he's fumbled the bag all kinda ways and so has the Lakers front office for YEARS
@@all4onegaming300Gotta give him credit for 2020 squad and 2022 turn around, other than that, idk
What is it that you recommend they do?
Sam Cassell is a great choice! JJ and Rondo as Assistant coaches! No brainer
Keep Phil handy
Sam Cassell is my guy
SAM Cassell A DARKHORSE PICK and is respected enough and a champ go for it
Ham was respected.
He should be the only pick…
@@whodaboss99until he coached.
@@whodaboss99 Also was a champ as a player and coach, same profile basically
Sam is a good choice because hes a true veteran of the game who is actually older than lebron. All the rookie head coaches are usually about the same age as lebron.
Ham and Vogel are older I know because Im LeBron age
Give Sam a chance. Knows the game and paid his dues.
Whoever LABron wants they will get they will hire Reddick
@@MaxAndersonn And that's why the organization has turned into CRAP!🤦♂️🤯
@@mrc302 Lebron owns the Lakers now now serve him 😂
@@MaxAndersonn Everything that's happening now is the reason I never wanted him on the Lakers.
@@mrc302 go cry with your Kobe photo Lebron the face of the Lakers now
The Lakers have two criteria for selecting a coach: one is cheap, and the other is obedient.
Amen
And accept the scapegoat after they failed
It’s not about cheap it’s about currently they have to pay Darvin ham 5 million a year for the next two years if Darvin ham doesn’t get a job, no matter what when you’re the person out of a successful company or business like the Lakers you accept that role that people tell you that you’re the scapegoat ,
Big facts. Our management can't even get a good coach
@@blind316 What scapegoat
I actually love giving Sam Cassell a shot
Cassell's resume is more diversified & extensive in areas you spoke on, so, between these 3 prospects, Cassell should get the job
if im not mistaken sam cassell was with clippers as assistant coach when jj was a player for clippers so i think they both can work well together no matter which one get the head coach or assistant spot lets bring them both in go lakers!!
Ironically 'Respected' were the same words that were said about Spam Ham.
These fools never learn... deserve to be the laughingstock of the NBA
@@BC-th3mxagreed 100 %
they want a coach that can win now but also win in the future? because there are so many coaches that are free agents that are exactly like that lol
😅😅😅
Sam is way more respected, legit player for years, won 3 championships, all that Ham talk was just smoke
Sam Cassell please.
In 2 years AD will be 33 turning 34 , yeah I’m not on board with building around a 34 yr old AD
Mark Jackson...
Lol people thinks JJ Reddick will changed the landscape of this team 😂😂. He's just another YES man of Bron and if somehow he managed to turn things around of this team, if they hire him of course, I'll be glad to be wrong for the success of the team but you have an opportunity to hire someone who definitely knows how to not just create plays and stuff but also to command a team is non other than Sam Cassell. Man proved his worth all this years even when he spend most of his coaching stints as an assistant still, compare to Borrego and JJ, Caselle is definitely worth the gamble.
Nobody thinks that lol
@@ca11medeemoney yeah there's some lol especially the fanatics who listens their podcast 😂😂
Hire Sam Cassell he's overdue for head coaching gig😎😎
We need a live show tonight with this news!
I'm definitely going to apply for this job
I’m good with Sam Cassell, his edge would be his time in the NBA. LGL!!
Lakers fan since ‘72
At this point Jeanie buss care about LeBron more than the Lakers brand its suppose to be bigger than a player
yall make everything about LeBron😂 if he was actually running things Ty Lue would be the head coach right now
@@AllBackends real talk !!! These dudes wake up hatin
@@AllBackends cause it is it's about the Lakers not LeBron
@@AllBackends people like u probably a LeBron fan n not a Lakers fan
Stars fill the seats. LBJ fills the seats. It’s a business.
no matter where it ends at.. tough to be lakers fan these days .. its real go guts mode XD
everyone turning into professional coach analysts here😂
For reals lol. No one in this video or even the comment section has any idea what it takes to run an nba franchise.
Why tf does our front office always need to go and consult with people NOT in the organization to tell them who they should hire ? Like we did this already… why tf can’t our front office just handle shit like every other one does… if pelinka needs to go ask someone else who he should hire. Why is he in the position he’s in? Our front office fkn SUCKS
Probably cause yall complain about the ppl in the organization
WooW !! That would great if the Lakers can lure coach K !!
If coach K accepts the coaching job 🤔
Yeah he’s not lmao. Idk why people think this is the most desirable job in the universe, it’s actually insane
Coach K couldn't get up off the Duke bench his latter years because of back ailments. Hubie Brown is in better physical condition.
I would go Cassell but no one cares wtf I think😅
Dear Jeannie Who's running the Lakers..?🤦🏿♂️
I called it. They need to make Coach K an assistant or advisor if JJ is hired, because you need someone to coach the coach.
Coach K has no NBA experience either
@@maurice2245 Yes, but he has coached the biggest stars in the NBA for Team USA.
Ngl, you are talking about Borrego! He fits what Lakers are looking for.
I think you are very correct in the inference of Ham weaknesses based on the requirements. I would have add to keep accountability on him ans his staff as well as players
sam cassell as the head coach and the other 2 as assistants
If the Lakers hire JJ Redick then they must hire very experienced and versatile assistant coaches who know their X's and O's and can help him where he falls short. I'd still hire Adelman if I were the Lakers with Redick as an assistant.
Why do the lakers continue to look for first year guys instead of true vets?? It's gonna be Darvin ham all over again. This team is a joke
Sam Cassell is a veteran coach don’t believe the BS media. Sam has more experience than some current Head coaches
@@icecoldac3for sure dont underrate sam cassell he knows what hes doing
ANYONE is better than Dopey Darvin
Reddick is intelligent unlike Dopey Darvin
Because they are cheap and easy to control
Don't act like you and everyone else wanted coach Ham last time. We know nothing
Sam Cassell should be the guy. If the Lakers have learned from the Brooklyn Nets-Steve Nash situation is don’t hire a coach without any experience.
yes but make him assistant if hes worth it makes sense ,theres no cap on assistants afterall
I like that Sam cassell pick. He has the respect around the league. I feel like he’s the next Ty Lou
Ham “had high respect” 🤷🏽♂️
TBH I want to see Mark Jackson in the conversation for head coaching list I think he can maximize players strength, usage and hopefully a better job on handling timeouts and player rotation. He made the warriors better before Kerr took over. in my opinion Lakers are fine with defense and offense but they didn't make defensive adjustments against Denver. It was mostly close games if they did a better adjustments on the defensive end they could have win all those close games.
hes a heart of lakers and will forever be , guess how shitty it has to be for us bweing aT POINT WITHOUT HIM. shiii...
Mark Jackson as Lakers new head coach
Thats a true candidate in Sam as Coach
Bring in JJ as the offensive system
Boreggo as the asst HC
3 headed creation to achieve those checkmarks
I go with JJ.. he played, he’s younger, and can relate to the players to make sure he drops the hammer when guys aren’t performing. We saw how he crushed Stephen A smith on his own show.. we need that
I like the Sam option. Watched him in college and the NBA. But Mark Jackson is a proven leader. Built the warriors dynasty. Give him a chance.
and idea about redick as assistant of sam... brilliant
Coach K is the coach LeBron needs
Haven't we been through this before? Luke Walton, Darvin Ham, Mike Brown, Byron Scott, Magic Johnson, Kurt Rambis - all with no head coaching experience. Only one who worked out was Pat Riley, but he was a fluke.
I told yah about coach k! I knew this from the jump !!
Why not give mark Jackson at least an interview?
He is black balled by the league … for the 10 millionth time just give it up it’s coming off as extremely pathetic
@@bigballer6666I just want the league to acknowledge it or a reporters to ask the question. Im not constantly bringing it up or picketing the league offices. My team needs a coach and I want one with some experience, knowledgeable and a successful track record and one the players will respond to he seems to fit that mold 🤷🏾♂️
Nope. Lakers won't spend a second thinking of Mark Jackson as an option.... It's been 10 yrs since he coached.... That's too long... And nobody wanted him.... So why Lakers, why now????
@@Murali_bala13 not like hes been away from the game. Besides lve heard a lot about guys with no coaching experience like jj redick so 🤷🏾♂️.. im not saying he should be hired just that he fits the criteria
@@Theinsideoutsider ok I'm not disagreeing with you.... I'm just telling you the Lakers won't even consider interviewing Mark Jackson
It’s whoever Coach K likes. He’s masterminding behind the scenes
I’d go with Sam out of these 3. Maybe try JJ as an assistant if he’s open to it.
it seems most of us are thinking same way. hope they make it right
Sam Cassell is my pick. That guy doesn’t care who you are, do what he says, is the attitude I see from him.
Sam Cassel is a 2X NBA Champion in 94 & 95, plus he’s been in Boston winning, at least this guy knows what it takes to win
Sam Cassell is the coach I want. Defensive coach with tenacity and charisma. Must be a defensive coach
David Adelman 🤞🏻
Coach K, JJ and LeBron? I saw that poscast 😂
Sam Cassell would be great with JJ as assistant.
One thing you like about Sam Cassell is that he is out to prove himself like many of the effective new Lakers past. About doing all those other items mentioned, I’m not sure about all of those.
what i like about cassell, he actually has good story as assistant. heads praise him afterall. and remembering his spirit as a player , i sense awesome motivator which btw ham never was as a player. ham was a dog in good sense,never leader tho. cassell is both. redick needs to be assistant 5 years forward hopefully under sam. id adore that combo of crazy basketball knowledge near bron
Watching the Denver and Minny game, the level they are playing is just light years better than the Lakers. Like night and day. I'm a huge Lakers fan, but no way they can beat Minny or Denver with their play. And Denver and Minny only getting better along with OKC.
then again, knowing lakers traditions... sam could end like byron did. which is not encouraging to say the least. yet i beleave he has way better leader skills than pork ups ham i mean
I like Sam Cassel he has been paying his dues over the years.
Those criteria sound like SHAQ!
JJ is the way to go. He just seems like a straight up competitor and has super high IQ. Something Vogel and Darvin Ham were both lacking. I think he'll do well with the lakers.
no xp would kill him,i double that as assistant tho . and cassell has guts and experience to be main guy.
Cassell could be a good one.
LBJ to CLE!!!!
LBJ owns the Lakers he ain’t going anywhere
@@MaxAndersonnno he don’t! He don’t have no power or control there
@@jaylenstone7589 oh yes he does he called LABron for a reason 😂
@@MaxAndersonn You on drugs! If he had control and power they would’ve signed Kyrie like he wanted and hired Ty Lue
@@jaylenstone7589 that’s why pelinka will get fired and LABron will have full power
It doesn't matter what you say, the goal is the same for both players and that is to win the next championship. Keep the focus on the team, not the players.
If the Lakers hire JJ as HC they deserve everything they get next year. Whether that be a championship (which I highly doubt) or missing the playoffs entirely (which is what I would expect). Someone mentioned hire Sam Cassell as HC and have JJ and Rondo as assistants. Now that I'm 110% onboard with. I like them reaching out to Coach "K" as an advisor. Hopefully the Duke connection to JJ doesn't become a focal point. Just because someone played for Coach "K" doesn't mean they themselves can coach LOL.
dad was right saying never wish u son to live at interesting times
Coach K would be a great hire.
The Lakers want Phil Jackson but have a YMCA Coach budget. 😂
He’s not good bro
JJ is intriguing though , with his league experience as a player , being a career 41% 3pt shooter , he might be able to help our shooters improve , and the fact that he seems to know what works and doesn't as far as X's and O's go. ( strictly based on mind the game PC , so just a sample size ) and he seems to be liked around the league by the players. My concern would be his staff , because they would need to be top tier to make up for his lack of experience.
FIRE PELINKA! Skinny Jeans hasn't sign players that jell together for the past 3 years. He failed to resign , McGee/Howard worked, Caruso worked, so did Malik Monk, Rondo, Schroeder, Brook Lopez. After he didn't resign those players, he did a patch up job that failed big time, players didn't jell.
Sam Cassell would be okay. But James Borrego would be a terrible fit for the Lakers. The Lakers should go after more well rounded coaches like David Adelman, Chris Quinn, Micah Nori, or Sean Sweeney. Adelman is my favorite.
I like Sam Cassell as HC
Lakers need to take a look at IME UDOKA. Toughness and his teams respect him. LBJ needs to be on board with it obviously but if he’s really not going to intervene like it’s reported, go try and get IME and don’t look back.
JJ for coach!! He's young and have a good relationship with Bron and AD...sam for assisten and borrego!!!
Damn y not Mark Jackson, what's the fucking problem
Players old and young say he is more than capable but he wants to do things his way and we all know Rob doesn't want that I am sure there are others who want to micromanage him as well. Smdh.
JJ Reddick is the biggest gamble. But James Barrageo is also a HUGE gamble. Last year, we brought in an assistant coach and look what happened.
If AD isn't going to have frontcourt help there will be no AD to build around. That's why they need someone like Lauri Markkanen now
*TWO* Years!!? This should be Lebron last year. I love the Lakers' loyalty to its stars, but paying Lebron max at 39 is asinine. Also JJ is a conflict of interest with LBJ & too green to develop young talent
Coach k is the great coach of all time
while sam proved it by years as assistant and leader . hes deserved that chance,lets see if he got guts for la
never been mentioned, I'll go with rondo as HC, then top assistant either stotts, James B or the Minnesota & nuggets assistant
JJ has the best relationship with LeBron. It has to be him.
It all seems like Groundhog Day. This is exactly what they were saying two years ago when they hired Ham. This is what they said when they passed on Lue by not offering him a solid contract and hired Vogel. They don't know what they want.
I’d go for cassell as hc, jj and maybe rondo as assistance
++++ we forgot rondos brilliant mind. id love this trio )
Aye …. Sam Cassell ❤❤❤❤ he can do it! And will make our point guards better!!!!!!
JJ Smart AF but more importantly versatile and not stubborn , next Steve Kerr please not Cassell
From what the lakers are asking it seems Sam cassel will be the next head coach for the Los Angeles lakers.
Yes
The most important thing here is PLAYER DEVELOPMENT…….. that needs to be priority
lol literally atm espn forums began this topic too... wat have we done >.
SAM for president
1st choice
T. Lue is the optimal candidate. Lakers have to strategize to somewhat put a lil pressure on Lue if he wants the Laker job & another opportunity to coach LeBron. How does one do that? Well you publicize that you're moving forward. Now Lue knows if i want this opportunity, i have to make a decision.
2nd choice
JJ Red. Mainly because his Lebron ties & attention to detail which could translate to player development. Remember, any coach that loses the star player attention, it's a wrap.
3rd choice
Sam Cassell. I like Sam. He was a point guard. A cerebral point guard who commanded the team & ran offense. He played a role in Houston winning those 2 championships. He wasn't just going along for the ride. He definitely will have player respect. Knows X's O's. Only reason i have him at 3 is because of the LeBron card that JJ holds. Like it or not, LeBron still have a ton of influence lol
Lakers should consider Monte Williams as their next coach.
We like to hear Sam Cassell, he’s got that dog in him 🐶 lol It’ll help build some culture around here
Im taking Sam!!
Out of those three, I'd take Sam Cassell every time.
Stop hiring guys because they are good motivators.
Great comment
Agreed. How can the Lakers not find a good coach lol. Our org is managed by noobs
Sam worked with Ty Lue
Don't get too fired up on rumors. Nothing is set in stone yet.
