Sweet. Good timing for both parties.

That was quick too. I guess that "long list" was each letter of Walton's full name.

Damn that was fast. I am happy that they moved fast with this one. Wonder what assistants we end up with.

Good hire.

So much for an extensive search. Wish they put more of a full court press on Ollie, however, can't go wrong with Luke. There's going to be a lot of rookie mistakes and I'm very curious to see what type of O and D he will run.

No! Give Mike Woodson a chance. We need to go through all the Mikes. After we can try Mike Dunleavy!

Props to Steve Kerr for letting him go. Kerr could have played the bad back card to get him to stay.

Lakers are always so tight lipped. Only the LA media guys seemed to know what was going on. Ireland was the first to report the interview today and it looks like Ding was the first to report the hire. Woj and those other guys got no piece of this story.
