The knew Kerr was a first time coach and their is no salary cap on coaches so they got the best assistant head coaches to help him reach his peak as a head coach. Not let’s promote Chris Quinn instead of hiring the best assistant coach money can buy. (No idea if Quinn is good etc just using him as an example). This also forces new ideas and personalities not just defense first, middle, last thinking. It won’t cost us any picks or assets other than money, it’s such a simple move that can pay off in dividends.

We've needed an offensive assistant since the big 3. I love Spo but he can't coach an offense. He can come up with plays but he's never had a system that maximizes talent.

He has clearly lost it. Game 4 was one of the worst playiff losses in history and this dude is sounding like he wants to run it back with the same squad.

I swear Spo is allergic to talent. I saw someone post somewhere that he's a basketball masochist and I can't unsee it

That too.. Kobe was Alpha.. Lebron is Beta most of his career looking for scapegoats (coaches he ran off, various good players etc)

That's exactly why LeBron is better, LeBron is 40 he SHOULD be deferring to Luka who's a better player than him at this point. :crazy: Kobe never realized stuff like this.

.

Lebron has deferred too much in his career IMO. He wouldn't have a losing finals record if he wasn't Beta. He was aggressive until it came down to nut cutting time in the 4th and then shrivels up. We saw it time and time again.. Also, Kobe did win 2 titles with teams really weren't all that great.. I'm And Kobe has more than 5 if he has Wade, Bosh, AD, Luka, Allen, Irving, Love and the list goes on.

You can't really ignore the fact considering all the help Lebron has had, why does the dude only have 4 titles at the end of the day. Can you think of one player thats had the supporting he has had? I can't

LeBron is a coward.
LeBron is a opportunist.
He backstabs all his allies.

Kobe only won w Shaq and Pau. Two of the best big men of the era. He wins nothing without them.

Riles needs to step down. Either Spo or Zo needs to take Riles' position. Haslem needs to be in the front office.
