Head Coach Search: 3rd Times A Charm - Vogel Agrees To Be Lakers Head Coach

Yep...watch the Clippers steal him from us

 

haven't been "great" for some time now....and thats what you call a "spin job" (like saying Magic quitting was good for us as he can now do the job he was meant to do) lol

 

A little info on Tim Harris...thought it was cool.

 

Maybe this is all part of what's preceded Magic leaving. Doubt it but what if the plan is to make Monty President and Coach. Could be a reason or possibility for Magic's cryptic The truth's going to come out tweet yesterday. Tin Foilin'. Nice that he has gotten some chops in working in well run front offices to boot. Did not know this.

Believe when I see it I guess. But could be a good thing if he's a real talent waiting to blossom.

 

I don't think they'll give him a dual role, but I absolutely love the fact that he's worked under R.C. Buford and has some experience with Presti in OKC.

He's also use to the circus; He was apart of 2-3 (don't remember the exact number) different ownership regimes in NO. He'll do well here (amidst this circus...LOL)...and I'll give Jeanie and company credit if we hire him; he's a step in the right direction. IMO

 

The Buss kids ain't their father, yet Ryan West will be.

We been sucking, yet Jeanie (who went to school for marketing) and her bff Linda get no credit for keeping the brand alive.

The clips are one star away, yet the Lakers aren't.

There's just too much contradiction with some of y'all and I ain't spending my energy talkin cLips on a Lakers board. Y'all should know better than that.

Weez, as for the Rambis's being there, Kurt was alright as an assistant for Phil. Maybe it's part of a feel out for Monty. If that's part of the reason the Rambis's are there and if Linda is a voice that Jeanie listens to, I'm sorry I personally have no problem with that.

I ain't burying Jeanie till Rambis gains an official title. Till then, he's an advisor and this is what advisors do.

 

name me one guy who has been successful at the job when they had both BPO/Coach titles?...Riley was the best/closes case but he alleviated most of his BPO duties when he came down to coach that Heat team

 

Me personally and I think it's valid is just worried about losing him. He has so much of his old man's handed down knowledge from their years on the road scouting, Jerry teaching and certainly Jerry would remain amongst his very most valued council and further on the job tutoring after hours if need be. Director of Player Personnel to me seems like not enough to keep him from leaving if gets a better offer.

 

Yeah I don’t think he should have both roles, but his front office experience is a positive. Might make me a little more comfortable with Pelinka’s presence if Monty had a large say in things as well.

 

Easy! I was just wondering with the new-to-me fact that he had worked around Buford and Presti and Magic's weird actions and tweets, trying to make sense of stuff that's been happening.

 

just saying bro, history has shown us dual roles dont lead to success, thinking Monty could be the exception could doom us. If you dont learn from history, you're doomed to repeat it

 

I'm not being optimistic...I'm tired of the contradictory reporting.

Doc had his kid play for him, yet we suffer from nepotism. cLips did s*** with 3 (current or previous) allstars, yet they own LA now. They swindled Blake and then tried to do it again with Tobias in an extension (but he was the wiser so they cut bait on him), yet Kawhi's a lock there and other FAs are rumored to look at it favorably. They were rumored to laugh about our Zu deal and it sure looks like Zu is sure exploiting that fatcatitis the dubs are suffering from, with his recent DNPs and losing his 9mins per starting gig. Come'n man...the narratives have been wild. But some of y'all don't want to see that.

Our current FO (with Jeanie in the know of bball ops) has been at it for 2 years. Meanwhile Ballmz has been at it for almost 5.

It's true West has had some success in turning it around, but there were exec openings and neither he nor his son were made candidates. Why? In a way, West is getting too much credit for the recent cLip turnaround from some of you...but the basketball world is saying otherwise.

Again bringing up cLippers to bury Jeanie is a trash take. And it will be resisted hard here, on a Lakers board, by yours truly. I'm not against reasonable discussion, but big upping the cLips, while trashing us is imo a trash take.

But like I said, y'all can trash her...I just won't do it till it's officially official that she made the wrong decision in handing out the Prez title.

So far, y'all just guessing that Linda/Kurt are the de facto Prez and the ultimate decision makers, but that hasn't been proven yet. As for Rob, I need to see his title change as well before I can criticize Jeanie's decision on the matter.

So far there's been conflicting reports: we stay as is and elevate from within or we are in cahoots with someone that is currently employed by a playoff team. Let all the info come out first before we start burying her...at least that's what I feel is the appropriate thing to do.

 

dont worry about Ingram, Zo, etc. Weez...they'll trade em off for pennies on the dollar and cont. swinging those cap plans

 

Looks like we've made an offer to Monty Williams...
