It’s official: Mike Brown is your new Lakers coach

his game plan will be: give "kobe the ball and clear space for kobe", while kobe is happy that he doesn't have to play in the triangle. brian shaw is pissed that he has to coach at golden state....
 
I'm interested to see how this works out. I don't know why, but he seems like a weird fit for the Lakers.
 
Jim Buss, Los Angeles Lakers executive and son of owner Dr. Jerry Buss, says he regrets not talking to Kobe Bryant about the decision to hire Mike Brown as Phil Jackson's successor.
"Looking back on it, we should have contacted Kobe," Jim Buss said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times that ran Saturday night. "Kobe said it was management's job to pick a coach. He just said, 'Defense first.' That's what we were doing, but we should have reached out to him."

Bryant had previously endorsed longtime Jackson assistant Brian Shaw to be promoted to the head-coaching job. The Lakers struck an agreement with Brown on Wednesday, and sources told ESPNLosAngeles.com's Dave McMenamin that Bryant has great respect for Brown and is on board with the hiring, despite not being consulted about the choice.
