Stumbled upon a list of possible coaches for LA , I'm looking at all of em and for some reason theres something missing.

While the article read , Purple and Gold will choose its coach after the draft but its interesting to see a mock list of coaches for LA. I'll add a little snippet from original article.

Not so on these:


Mike Dunleavy - It would be almost impossible for the Lakers to hire a coach more disliked than Mike D'Antoni but Mike Dunleavy would be close as said by one reporter.

George Karl - The next candidate should be rated higher in the group, but the stars just don’t seem to align. George Karl has been a pretty successful coach, but he is simply just a bad fit. InsideSoCal’s Mark Medina has the story:

Both the Lakers and Karl have their reservations about a partnership for various reasons. Karl runs a fast-tempo system after Mike D’Antoni encountered a divided locker room surrounding his up-tempo style.

That included Kobe Bryant, whom Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak has said will be most effective operating from the post entering his 18th season after suffering two major injuries.

A Chance on these - Big Guns:

Derek Fisher - Other than Kobe, there might not be another active player in the league more revered by Laker fans than Derek Fisher.

He happily orbited around the Kobe System and helped the Lakers win five titles with his clutch play and leadership. The latter has earned him what appears to be universal respect around the league and was part of the reason he previously sat as president of the National Basketball Players' Association.

It seems like a foregone conclusion that Fisher would retire as a player once the San Antonio Spurs dispatched his Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, and that makes him a potential candidate should he wish to join the coaching ranks.

Kurt Rambis - Former Minnesota Timberwolves coach Kurt Rambis is one of the most intriguing candidates on the board.

He is part of the Lakers family in more ways than one: He was once upon a time in L.A. a player, assistant coach, interim coach, front-office advisor and assistant manager (not at the same time, just to be clear).

Rambis has a very diverse portfolio, which leads me to believe he could be a valuable asset as a head coach. He played for nine seasons in L.A. and helped the Lakers win four world championships during the 1980s. Thus, Rambis is well-versed on the perspective of players.

Alvin Gentry - Los Angeles Clippers assistant coach Alvin Gentry has generated interest from the Lakers and even interviewed for the job.

Unlike Fisher and Rambis, Gentry has coached for numerous seasons in the league. That technically should be an advantage, but it’s kind of difficult to characterize it as such.

Personal thought ( not for Gentry )

Lionel Hollins - Former Memphis Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins might just be what the Lakers need and want.

During his tenure with the Grizzlies, Memphis became a tough and physical team that feasted on creating turnovers and beating up opponents.

Hollins expertly pulled the strings and got the Grizzlies to the Western Conference Finals last year. He was dismissed after the San Antonio Spurs eliminated Memphis.

Byron Scott - Byron Scott’s ties with the Lakers might give him an advantage over all of the candidates.

As did Rambis, Scott played in Los Angeles during the 1980s and helped the team win three titles alongside Magic Johnson, James Worthy and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Towards the end of his career, Scott bounced around a bit and played with the Indiana Pacers and Vancouver Grizzlies. He then rejoined the Lakers in his final season, where he connected with a rookie named Kobe Bryant.
