In the early morning of May 15, Beijing time, NBA Hall of Fame Shams wrote an article reporting that after Budenholzer signed the Suns and Kidd renewed his contract with the Mavericks, there were only the following 6 head coach candidates for the Lakers: James Borrego, Sam Cassel, JJ Redick, David Adelman, McCa Norrie and Chris Quinn.
According to Lakers reporter Jovan Buha, Redick is in the lead among coaching candidates. As soon as the news came out, Lakers fans sighed: It's not dawn yet, it's dark again! Because Redick is not as good as the original coach Hamm. After all, Ham has been an assistant coach for 14 years and is still a member of the Bucks' championship, while Redick has never been a coach at all.
Redick retired as an ESPN commentator and analyst and started podcasting with James this year, and he doesn't even have NBA assistant coaching experience. Haslem, the Heat's vice president of development and NBA commentator, said: "Once Redick becomes the Lakers coach, it raises locker room questions, and players will question whether this is Redick's idea or James' idea? ”
If you want to appease James, you can choose Redick, but the Lakers have several requirements for the new coach: 1. Be able to use James well; 2. Be able to build a team around the then 33-year-old thick eyebrows in two years; 3. Develop players for the future of the Lakers; 4. Earn the respect of players in the locker room; 4. Tirelessly develop a game plan.
They want the horses to run, and they want the horses not to graze. The Lakers demanded so much that they were reluctant to give their coaches a high salary. Buden asked for an annual salary of tens of millions, but the Lakers couldn't afford it, so he turned around and went to the Suns and signed a big contract of more than $50 million for five years. Looking at the Lakers' 6 coach candidates, except for Borrego, no one else has coach experience.
Borrego was born on November 12, 1977, and served as an assistant coach with the Pelicans this season. Borrego served as interim head coach for the Magic in 2015 with a 10-20 record. From 2018 to 2022, he served as the head coach of the Hornets, with a coaching record of 138 wins and 163 losses, and did not make the playoffs. This coaching resume doesn't look good......
Sam Cassel should be familiar to everyone, and has played for many teams such as the Rockets, Mavericks, Timberwolves, Clippers, and Celtics in his playing career. Born on November 18, 1969, he officially retired in 2009 and has served as an assistant coach with the Wizards, Clippers, 76ers and Celtics, with Kassel having 15 years of experience as an assistant coach!
Next, let's talk about the other three, David Adelman is an assistant coach for the Nuggets, not the familiar Rick Adelman (former Kings and Rockets coach). David Adelman was born on August 15, 1981, and began working as an assistant coach in the NBA in 2011, becoming an assistant coach for the Nuggets in 2017 and winning a championship with the Nuggets in 2023.
Born April 8, 1974, Maika Norrie has nearly 20 years of experience as an assistant coach, having previously served as an assistant coach with the Raptors, Kings and Nuggets, and is currently the Timberwolves' chief assistant coach. Chris Quinn was born on September 27, 1983, ended his playing career in 2013 and became an assistant coach of the Heat in 2014, and it has been 10 years now.
Many fans are curious, will Vogel, who was fired by the Suns, return to the Lakers? The answer is no, because the Lakers have stated that they are not interested in Vogel. Vogel probably doesn't want to return to the Lakers, and even if he is idle at home, he can take $6 million a year from the Suns. And the Lakers' annual salary to the new coach is only five or six million dollars.
Welcome to discuss: Of these 6 head coach candidates, who is the best fit for the Lakers?
