Seriously Jim Buss?

Wow @ picking Brown over Shaw simply because he knew the old regime wouldn't be loyal. I mean the Shaw hire was the most obvious lakers head coach hire the last two decades.. even this year everytime the lakers have won a big game (which is few and far between but for example the clippers win) it has been the Lakers core executing the triangle and having a flow on offense. Whenever Brown runs his own "offense" the Lakers get exposed for the 1-dimensional offense that it is. The triangle was beautiful in that it taught the lakers to run it perfectly and to do it self-sufficiently. Anyone who had been around the team would have known this, apparently Jim buss did not, otherwise he would have chosen someone who was well-versed in the system everyone in the core nucleus knows and knows how to win championships with.

Also wow @ Jim not doing Melo for Bynum straight up when everyone around him implored him to.

I would pick Brown over Shaw, too.

He made the right choice

We can't run the triangle forever

The problem is that we still have triangle players

We just need to be patient and let management find players for browns system

I agree. I wouldn't say Shaw was a nobrainer, there were other excellent choices they never bothered to interview. That said hiring Mike Brown was a bad decision, and hiring Shaw over Brown is a nobrainer.

If you get full right's on that math equation, I want 10% for introducing the idea of how the components relate.

I'm assuming the Lakers hired Brown to win now. If they are rebuilding, they might as well trade Kobe and get something for him instead of wasting his only 2-3 good years left.

Only if you agree to take back Walton's contract.

Deal. Only because I don't have a kid yet to take out in the driveway yet and murder in a game of 1 on 1. Luke will fit that role nicely.

Hopefully this doesnt come back and bite us...

Jim Buss is a moron.

You guys cry after a nice win? What a bunch of pathetic losers.
