[BKIslandersFan]

it doesnt' sound like JJ was ever a serious option, Shams got misled

change the title

 

[End of Line]

They’re just targeting him right? Nothing has been finalized?

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

Woj had his henchmen feed Shams BS info.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Embarrassing stuff by Shams. It's not like it's a trade or free agent signing where many teams can be involved either.

Why coach in a league that lets its players operate like a pro league but pretends its amateur when you can just go coach in the pro league for a lot more money

Well at least they didn't do the stupid thing and hire a guy just to appease Bron.

Exactly. Instead of having to be both the GM and head coach, he can be just a coach in the NBA and not deal with all the new BS that's come up in college sports.

Plus he and Harbaugh both won titles, missions accomplished.

Good news for Lakers fans. Would have been a terrible hiring most likely.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

They should hire Maverick Carter as the coach since already runs lebron’s life.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Or Lebron should player-coach….

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

I like how they make it sound like they knew anything. 12 hours ago it was “the Lakers are closing in on JJ as their #1 target”. Now, “Dan Hurley has been their #1 target from the beginning”. SMH

absolutely brilliant move by redick and his people making sure to get his name out there to get publicity for his podcast

[VaCaps Fan]

Shams got fed bad info and now he’s been made a fool. Woj probably told him ‘boy, there’s level to this shit’.

Woj pulled outs political card while Sham appears to his social media followers.

lakers FO is very good at not leaking stuff out to the press. i thought shams was pelinka's guy, but i guess even he doesn't have the sources inside the FO that i thought he did

I dont blame him for acting on it tho., anything Lakers related will get you clicks/interactions on social media.

Sham’s I thought was nothing more than a home boy on social media appeasing to NBA fans because he ‘knew’ shit.

Shams isn’t politically connected as we thought.

A bit dramatic. Both Hurley and Harbaugh won titles not sure what the point would be of sticking around. What do you expect Hurley to do?? Of course he’s going to take the Lakers job. Back to back natty’s big time offer to coach a lengendary franchise. It’s a no brainer

It’s actually very low risk/high reward for Hurley. He will get the chance to rebuild them in a post-Bron-Bron world, get paid for it no matter what, and if they have success, or even win a title before LeBron leaves, that’s just so much extra gravy.

He said the same crap before ditching Rhode Island for UCONN. Everything out of him was we're a family, I love it here, the job isn't done, yada yada yada.

And then he bolted
