The not-so-surprise dismissal of coach Ham on the Lakers’ bench has already sparked a series of truly curious rumors. According to what Shams Charania, an insider at The Athletic, reports, the yellow and purple have already put a series of names in their notebook to evaluate extremely carefully. We start from that of Mike Budenholzer, former NBA champion with Antetokounmpo’s Milwaukee Bucks, up to assistant coach of the Golden State Warriors Kenny Atkinson, then passing through that of You Lou if he were to leave the Clippers at the end of the Playoff run in which he is involved.
The idea of JJ Redick on the Lakers bench and the relationship with James
However, also watch out for the big surprise that could be represented by JJ Redick. The former NBA player, an analyst for ESPN for some time and author of a podcast all about him, has a very close relationship with LeBron James with whom he created “Mind the Game Pod”. In the first episode, Redick discusses schemes and tactics with the Akron native, suggesting a certain harmony of intent. And it would be a golden opportunity for him too, to start his career as a head coach.
Of course, it’s too early to point in a real direction, also because Rob Pelinka doesn’t want to make mistakes to give LeBron James his probable last run in the yellow and purple jersey.
