Mike Brown Fired Per ESPN

Re: Mike Brown Fired Per ESPN

The offense wasnt the reason why the Lakers were losing though...

No it wasn't but it was still a big part of the problem. Both ends looked disjointed and the effort just wasn't there.

SMH@ Magic Johnson tonight on ESPN. He's gonna be so annoying.

I doubt Magic will say much, he predicted this after they got eliminated by the Thunder.

Heh.

Some of us hope. While others of us wish.

Magic will be yapping tonight on some I told you so, history of the purple & gold, Laker legacy nonsense.

Only five games in with new players and with serious chemistry issues, you fire your coach... Why would anyone want to be the coach of the Lakers you end up getting hung for problems that you can't fix that quickly?

But I want to hear it from his own mouth and wonder if any LA reporter has the balls to call him out.

That would be the last question he asked as an LA reporter. #DeathStare

A good guess might be money.

Re: Mike Brown Fired Per ESPN

Let me say this for everyone saying 5 games this no chemistry please cut out.This is the Lakers used to winning maybe with the Bobcats they'll accept losing but not the Lakers.

Another thing people seem to realize is every Laker move is calculated.Even Kevin Durant admitted during the Olympics that Kobe was bragging months and months about how we going get Dwight and Steve Nash weeks upon weeks before we even them.Especially Nash it wasn't news to him he was bragging 3 weeks before the trade even went down.

So we wouldn't just fire the coach without consulting Kobe,Dwight etc.They probably had a meeting with Kobe/Dwight and said we going fire Mike Brown and go in this direction.They agreed we pulled the trigger.

Every Laker move is calculated they'll let the media guess and guess who's the next coach(I'm going with Zen Master) and so for.They not new this and this not some new franchise its the Lakers they preach excellence I think they know exactly what there doing I'm not panicking at all.

Re: Mike Brown Fired Per ESPN

Because someone on here acted like Kobe's not in the know.

And besides..Kobe was the one who called out LA fans about panicking..yet that's exactly what his front office did. And since we agree that he's in the know then that makes him phony as hell.

But I want to hear it from his own mouth and wonder if any LA reporter has the balls to call him out.

Kobe was already a huge phony before this. So I'm not surprised. Also it's extremely easy to blame Mike Brown, but the offense wasn't the only problem with this team. The defense was horrible and there was way too many turnovers. Also another thing this team lacked was great leadership. I take a lot from what Dwight said the other night which was..

"Sometimes I think as a team, we ought to be able to not really show our frustrations that much," Dwight Howard said. "A lot of the guys look at me and Kobe (Bryant) and they feed off us, so we have to do a better job of keeping our frustrations on the inside and just playing through it so our teammates won't get down on themselves.

I agree with him 100% when teams are going through these tought situations they have to have better poise and composure. Either way who ever the next coach is they're gonna have a lot on their plate.

Just let Kobe coach the team and play; at the same time.
