The Los Angeles Lakers (http://espn.go.com/nba/team/_/name/lal/los-angeles-lakers) have had to replace two coaching legends in the last 20 years: Phil Jackson and Pat Riley. The only time it's worked out well, the team turned to Mike Dunleavy. They're thinking of doing the same again this time.

Dunleavy was contacted by the team this week and is said to be on the team's current "short list" to succeed Jackson, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.


That list also includes former Houston Rockets (http://espn.go.com/nba/team/_/name/hou/houston-rockets) coach Rick Adelman, who ESPN.com Marc Stein and ESPNLosAngeles.com's Dave McMenamin reported Thursday also would be a candidate for the position.

Adelman will likely be the replacement, but if this happens :lmao

So whatever happened to Brian Shaw becoming the Head Coach? Everybody within the Lakers organization always made it sound like it was a lock that he would be Jackson's successor....

The Lakers got swept in the 2nd round so now they go into full panic mode.
