BREAKING NEWS: THE LAKERS HAVE FIRED MIKE BROWN
|
Posted By: DAVID JOHNSON on November 09, 2012 Brown was 42-29 in his short stay with arguably the NBA’s most valuable property, a stay that had been expected to last at least through the team’s six-game home stand starting tonight. Lakers coaching jobs are never without pressure, but Brown’s was unique: He came into the job following the unreal standard set by Phil Jackson, but with a team mired in problems following an ugly playoff exit against Dallas. When he did get his first shot to actually coach, it was in a lockout-shortened season when time was precious to install a new system and develop chemistry with a roster — and after he’d lost one of his best players, Lamar Odom, to a trade. It was a glamorous job but it wasn’t all pretty: even given huge new acquisitions this summer of Dwight Howard and Steve Nash, he had just weeks to install his new Princeton offense to a team dealing with injuries and a thin bench. Instead, he’s out immediately — but his position could be filled very soon. Yahoo’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that Lakers management is comfortable buying out the $11 million left on Brown’s contract.. DO you think Phil Jackson is on his way back to the lakers ??
