Sam Cassell & JJ Redick Present Interesting Options in the Lakers’ Coaching Search | Lakeshow

Kevin Ding joins Chris McGee and Mike Bresnahan and makes the case for JJ Redick despite not having coached in the NBA versus other candidates who have years of NBA coaching on their resumes. Plus, with the NBA Draft Combine being held, will the Lakers find a way to select Bronny James in next month’s Draft?

What about Cassell as head coach and Redick as assistant coach?

[@rickywhite4386]

We don't need first year coach we need a veteran

[@dax8]

Love this show. They tell it like it is, no manipulation.

[@tracyreed6032]

Are you serious? How do they tell it like it is. Has Reddick ever coached? Has Reddick ever worked in a front office? Has Reddick won a Championship as an NBA Player? Has Reddick ever run or attended a coaching clinic? Has Reddick ever been an assistant coach? His ultimate qualifications are that he: Speaks intelligently + Is Charasmatic? Anyone ever heard of Magic Johnson? Winner at every level, Charasmatic, Hall of Famer + Terrible Head Coach. These guys are terrible at this.

HE´S NOT READY!!!!! For a regular NBA team MAYBE, for the Lakers..NO WAY!!!

[@derekchatman2595]

If it's coach K, then the answer is a no-brainer.

[@gilbertruiz1233]

One of yhe main questions should be how will you play against Denver and others

[@robs4491]

I feels that JJ will be the coach to be assisted by Cassell and Borrego.

[@anthonynorris9011]

Mark Jackson for coach or assistant

[@robs4491]

JJ may not have the experience but one thing for sure is that we have a tactical coach who knows basketball and someone who will fight back against other coaches.

[@tracyreed6032]

Tactical Coach? How could you possibly know that? Anyone can talk about strategy in a calm, quiet studio. It's vastly different with a shot clock, and fans, and players, and injuries, etc? What a weak premise.

[@Drangorooq27]

Please get sam

[@collegecoachingnetwork7669]

What about JJ and Frank Vogel assistant coach. Like Frank Vogel and Jason Kid.

[@icecoldac3]

As Udonis Haslem said JJ Redick is an extension of LBJ being the coach. Locker room will be in shambles in no time. Sam Cassell is the better hire as a no nonsense hall of famer.

[@ultralightbeing6080]

Nahhhhh JJ has more of a backbone then that. Not sure you've heard much of jj. He's not a pushover in any sense. Also not sure why you would trust Sam Cassells opinion over lebron's anyway.

[@BSinNYC]

AD is guaranteed chip for the knicks who are so starved for a chip, we can definitely get 2 unprotected first rounders and one of their bigs. The GSW have the most expensive roster and need to deliver; I bet we could get a pick or two for Lebron since you know Dray, Steph, and Kerr think they can win a chip with Lebron and whichever big we get for AD. Hire JJ and let him develop while we rebuild.

[@Crawfish411-Vlog]

LBJ to CLE !!!!

[@gregpollard7158]

Well - Looks like this crew is Ridin’ with Reddick as well. I hope/pray that if We hire JJ that it works out however, I’m concerned by how much control LBJ has over Our Franchise - This will be Our 4th HC under LBJ/We have lost so many Good Rotational Players during the LBJ Era/He intentionally started the Podcast with JJ with the plan of JJ getting the HC Job/We will most likely Draft Bronny @ #55. Magic 🪄 & Kobe 🐍 didn’t have this much control!!! If the JJ Hire doesn’t work, Fans will Fosho ask that Rob be fired!!! The LA 🟣🟡 Show!!!

[@berniealvarez8696]

Ok, the propaganda machine is on board. It's going to happen.
