Why not Kurt Rambis, he did an incredible job when he was coaching Minny!

Yeah, if you're into losing records.

Here's a thought, why not make Kobe "player-coach"?

It worked for Bill Russell!

Has everyone forgot about that high-powered Phoenix offense they had just a few years ago? It was something to watch and impossible to stop. That's what D'Antoni would bring. He just needs to get a Jerry Sloan to come in and take care of the defense.

Kobe is not a coach, players like Kobe rarely are good coaching material.

Sloan says he won't coach. Jackson only wants limited coaching on road games, that doesn't show commitment, but the Lakers believe the only way to win is Jackson. D'Antoni is a different type of coach, I'm not sure if LA is built for his offense but it would be interesting.

Jackson is the legend every Laker coach will be compared to, that is a lot of pressure. Mike Dunleavy has been mentioned. The key is managing Kobe, if you get Kobe to buy in, then you have a shot.

The could make Kobe a "player-coach" and problem solved.

The first thing Mike D'Antoni should do, is hire Jerry Sloan to coach the defense.

If he does, you can start making room for another championship banner right now.

In fact, you can maker room for two.

I fully expect the Lakers to win it all this year. There too big and talented not to.

They are too old and slow.

Did Phil Jackson turn the Lakers down?

Did Phil Jackson turn the Lakers down?

I don't think it got to that point.

If things really deteriorate in Gaza, we can send in the Clippers to restore order.

Did you see what they did to the Heat last night?

I have to admit, they're getting scary!

The Lakers are a huge joke.

Cowherd said it best, three things you can count on with old people.

They like hard candy, they love to watch westerns, and they can't defend the perimeter.

No way in hell, Kobe would make a horrible coach.
