The teams rank 6th (Lakers) and 13th (Clippers) in total payroll for next season, and both will be mired in mediocrity, at best.

 

 

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.
