It's not a bad move, tbh... I'll give D'Antoni the benefit of the doubt regarding the D since the Suns had no defensive big man (unless you squint and think Marion at PF made sense) and when he did have a good defensive big in Chandler and a capable defensive coordinator in Woodson the Knicks were a top defensive team.
Kobe's wet dream: a coach who doesn't care how often or quickly he shoots.
LOL seven man rotation with NBA senior citizens.
Pringles would be a better fit on the Clips, tbh... all those athletic big men and a PG who wants to push the pace. Plus, their wings are at least decent shooters.
Shame you have VDN.
D'Antoni would be a horrible fit for us, he'd squander the bench and our defensive talent... coaching hasn't been a problem this year tbh...
Lmao.. Jim buds is a piece of ...from what I read jackson I stunned by the decision.
According to ESPN...
Sources told ESPN that Jackson's triangle offense was seen as a benefit to Bryant and Pau Gasol, but not as conducive to the rest of the players on the roster -- namely point guard Steve Nash and center Dwight Howard. Another strike against the triangle was the fact that this Lakers team struggled mightily to pick up the similarly complicated Princeton-style offense being ins uted by Brown.
A league source indicated late Sunday night that Jackson was "stunned" when the Lakers called to inform him they had chosen D'Antoni. He had been prepared to accept the job Monday if negotiations between his agent and the Lakers went well. Jackson's agent Todd Musberger had been scheduled to fly to Los Angeles on Monday.
Jackson and the Lakers had never spoken about a salary, the source said, "but he knew coaches don't make what he used to make anymore." Jackson, the source said, also never intended to miss any more road games than he had in his previous years with the Lakers.
"Phil would come back only to win and skipping games doesn't lead to winning," the source said.

hiring pringles because they want to win now, not later
"the triangle is too complicated and it won't help our overrated offseason moves
Far be it from me to question the grammatical a en of a Lakers fan, but I don't think you know what "predecessor" means. In this case his "predecessor" would be Mike Brown. I think you meant "successor".
A good rule of thumb is never use a word unless you know what it means.
" WE WANT PHIL "
I see you're using Chris Broussard as your source
old ass backcourt..... 70 SOL
LOL Lakers telling media this wasn't about anything except for their beliefs that D'Antoni would be a better coach for this team than Phil.
LOL!!
Well there goes that championship..
Thank you Jim Buss. You are single-handedly making the lakers irrelevant. Irrelevant as far as winning goes.
L.A. Suns...where's Culbear when you would sincerely like to hear his take on this
Jim Buss is the Lakers' version of Jerruh Jones... the only thing that could make this funnier is if Phil takes a job with the Clippers or Celtics
Nash is going to be dead by the All Star game when pringles is playin him 40+ mins/game tbh.
