…a moment we’ve all been waiting for: two of the league’s biggest pus buckets - Ben Simmons and James Harden - are finally on the same team. Good times.

Jeannie and Rob are insulting their fans' intelligence. This team is going nowhere. Lebron is ready to hang them up. The constant coaching carousel is a joke, as is most of the roster. The organization knows it and doesn't care, as long as they put bodies in the seats and make their cable tv contract money. Freaking pathetic.

Give them places to live and teach them to grow food which will help pay for the whole thing. It may not work for all of them but maybe it would help 35% or so of them? That's a shitload more than we seem able to help now.

This is all obviously Reddick's fault, just like it was Ham's fault before him, and Vogel's before that. Place your bets folks - who will be Jeannie and Rob's next scapegoat??

Stan Van Gundy left nothing but a smoking crater in his wake after a disastrous 4 years running that franchise. They havent won a playoff game since 2008. Has Tom Gores gone senile?

So, the Lakers still have a coaching vacancy. But, who would want this ridiculous game of musical chairs?

First of all, you have a meddling, incompetent ownership group to deal with who will probably get you on the cheap because they like to spend/blow all their money on aging superstars. Next, is kowtowing, accommodating and acquiescing to the whims and ego of that aging superstar or find yourself gone before your tenure is up. Then, there’s the flawed lineup: no, established backup center, a weak bench and no third reliable scoring option in your starting five. Finally, you can forget about developing young, promising talent because they’ll be gone before you know it.

Um … sounds like a “great“ Job opportunity.

....along with Kurt Rambis if not already done. Laker management messed up when they broke up the bubble roster and the team has never recovered. The coaching carousel is likely to continue until Lebron retires and likely beyond.

Maybe not such a shitpost but the mere existence of things like Lemmy and kBin is comforting, especially after living through the enshittification of Reddit.
