    ^Three-a-days? That's manic bordering on obsession. Reminds me of you-know-who.

    Lolz. Mothertrucker was trying to hide it like a mug when talking about FA when the reporter asked , "Are you confident this roster will look different after FA"...Obviously part of the answer is no s*** lol.

    Jeannie and Kurt's wife are still Bffs I think. I'm sure Magic has fond memories of Kurt too./

    Bringing Kurt Rambis back again...

    [​IMG]

    I mean I don't know what kind of big difference he made when he was with us under Phil or when he was with the Knicks these last few years. I don't hate this but just seems like a lateral move, not improving the coaching staff necessarily.

    I wouldn’t even describe it as a “move.” It’s the Lakers and they found one of their guys a job. It’s only newsworthy to crazies like us that check a message board all day.

    He wont be in a position to make decisions if he's a coach, so I see no problem there. If it's something in the FO, it's likely a lead scout role or something. No harm done.

    Regardless of Kurt's track record as a coach, he is a likable guy. It'd be nice to get him back.

    What's this negativity about Rambis? he was an excellent defensive coach under Phil. PJ let him run the defense.

    I feel like Kurt Rambis has been a part of me in the past for some reason.

    He took a clothesline for the team against the punk C Bags. That’s got to count for something. Throw him an assist Mag.

    He isn't a good fit with the modern basketball world. He feels like a dinosaur.

    I love him but I think he isn't dynamic enough for today's NBA and how the game evolves...

    Care to elaborate? Seems more like a polar opposite from afar. But then I never know how far the way you jump around the globe.
