How Will JJ Redick Handle The Scrutiny That Comes As Lakers Head Coach? | 7/8/24

Dan Patrick wonders what type of impact the Los Angeles Lakers new head coach JJ Redick can bring to the franchise as well as how the former player will handle all the scrutiny that comes with being the head coach of the Lakers

[@TXMadeTXMade]

3 years from now….They’ll have Lebron other son on the team!!!🤣🤣

[@shahidmufti795]

Why would anyone want to call up Bronny???? For what???? bench warming????

Cheerleader? 😅

I was so glad to see you guys back. I'm sick with covid and it was great to have you guys back during my sufferfest

[@skatedurr]

get well soon !

[@shake6429]

LeBron and Bronny should go to the Miami Heat🔥

[@nolongerblocked6210]

I've got a feeling JJ might not even make it through the year. Once the Lakers start struggling to be in playoff contention, LeGM won't be happy & he'll look for a scapegoat to blame to absolve him of responsibility. So JJ could be pushed aside for one of those experienced assistant coaches they hired

[@PCGamer13HD]

anyone that says LeGM clearly doesn't pay attention to what the Lakers do lol. they'd have Kyrie, Ty Lue, and probably Derozan if they actually did what he wanted them to do lmfao

[@PCGamer13HD]

also why wasn't Ham fired at any point last season when it was evident LeBron was fed up with him prior to the halfway point? "LeGM" would of had him fired even earlier since the players knew he was an awful coach

[@MrMytube60]

The Lakers are a reality TV show!

Keeping Up With The Brondashians

[@mnanji4]

“Detroit is a better job than the Lakers” is an insane take. Does Dan know that front office is more dysfunctional than the lakers

[@Vic-Vega]

That's arguable.

[@Bask3tChase]

He'll handle the criticism the same way he handled the criticism of modern day players, by disingenuously twisting numbers to spin a false narrative like he's a business analyst for a soulless corporation.

[@user-sm7qu3pu2u]

If you coach the Lakers and LeBron or his son aren't winning right away or even playing well, you have just become the Steve Bartman for the franchise. I don't think LeBron or Anthony Davis have enough in the tank to make any type of serious run this year.

[@Mr.Zen_73]

Not even Phil Jackson could save these Lakers. They'll be lucky to make the play-in gonna be a wild ride for JJ good chance he'll get chewed up and spat out

[@danjacques77]

Love the Expos cap!

One n done.. like a Kentucky Wildcat from a decade ago lmao

Who are you referring to?

[@lewisinnorthcarolina2204]

Fritzy..any guest interviews?

[@amandswright2040]

I think Jj and LeBron will be all smiles for a few months. Around trade deadline it all starts to crack and fall apart

[@jerryren4076]

What if they actually have a good record?

[@jwk4567]

I hope you’re right Dan, but I give it no more than two years. But it’s going to be fun!!! 🎉😊

Bout time you came back to work 😆

[@shane1899]

They haven't done anything this off-season? Ummm, Bronny James.... hello!

[@williegarforth7961]

JJ went to Duke.He's smart enough to say ask LeBron it's his team.

[@facts351]

I mean I believe jj attitude going to rub players the wrong way I think he the first player that retired and got a head coaching job maybe 3 years out the league... so the players going to look at him like he still a player and not a coach ijs one of them players mite try him when he try to talk crazy ....

[@SomeChink]

Jason Kidd got a head coaching job basically as soon as he retired from playing Difference being Kidd had way more accolades as a player

[@bbthompson05]

Wrong, J Kidd got a coaching gig, basically before he retired.

[@cjokerp]

Redick and Bronny do have some things in common, starting with "Not deserving their current positions"

[@Horndogthehorneddog]

Like a pro who understands and is excited about an opportunity

[@razkable]

Yankees have a lot of pressure

[@javierdelgado1554]

Scrutiny? I would think that at this point, Laker fans would have already given up caring.

[@razkable]

2 years

[@miamivice1149]

The Laker problem is 'Loner LeBron.'

[@blackcat4859]

JJ might not be coaching the Lakers in 3 years but I'm sure another team will give him a shot

[@Vincent-um9pi]

Players don't want to play for JJ

[@marknatanael6915]

JJ is padding up his portfolio for a Hall of Fame case.

[@laylowstaylow]

NBA is there for entertaining, if JJ could do that, to entertain people, maybe he could stay for more than 1 yr...

[@nikky8000]

There are 200+ players in the NCAA right now that are averaging less than 5 points per game just like Bronny...none of them will get drafted because there dad is not LeBron.

Nepotism at its absolute worst!

[@box3y]

JJ will be paid handsomely to go down with the ship. The Lakers have no great assets, an old Lebron, his son, and a broken AD. JJ will be paid well to keep his hands on the wheel right now. But the beauty days are over.

JJ doesn’t give a fk so why wonder……

[@brendandrunasky1240]

The Lakers are not going to win anything soon. Why couldn't Jordan get any of his kids to the Wizards?

[@jacks5183]

JJ Redick is gone in a year, good riddance, be his own man, how is that going too happen when LeBron is on his back, telling him what too do, the Laker’s have gone from the Laker’s too the Sucker’s, they Suck

Why not let JJ worry about it.

[@dreamsoflorien8237]

I love the hate for a 55th pick, some team waived their pick for cash, stop

[@ChocolateAfterDark]

Yeah it’s easy for Bronny to not care. His dad’s worth a billion dollars. C’mon LBJ, just stop talking bro…….

[@janski1982]

Has LeBron James jr officially changed his name to Bronny? I hate the name Bronny! Why can’t he just be LeBron jr??
