Re: Nori, I'm still concerned about simplistic "Minnesota defense good, Micah Nori is defensive coordinator => Nori is a great candidate" philosophy. As mentioned I'd be worried about the offense under Nori, but ultimately I suppose it'd depend on who the assistants are
Micah Nori: (Defense)
Alvin Gentry, Mike D'Antoni: (Offense)
Lebron would stop listening to Nori at the first sign of trouble. AD would just side with Bron. It would be over before it started. I’m 100% convinced the next coach is going to be JJ or some other Bron guy to see him get his farewell tour. That’s all that matters to ownership. Staying relevant. Staying in the spotlight. Desperately at that.
A name not mentioned in the coaching convo's is Kendrick Perkins. Listening to his analyst he knows X's and O's. I don't know how he'd relate to players. He impresses me as a man who would get their respect. I think Bron and AD would listen to him thus would the team.
Bron isnt listening to anyone. Just because a guy can discuss x/os after the fact doesnt mean much. Plus Bron doesnt want him im sure after perk said bron doesnt want to be coached. _________________ Kobe.

Actually, Cuban did the smart thing. He sold the Mavs to major real estate tycoons. He knows where sports ownership is and where it is headed.

Read something that he sees where sports is heading and he decided to sell. He still is in charge of operations.
The funny thing is Cuban is richer than Jeanie…so if he is forward thinking like that, major yikes for us and our poor owner.
I think he didn’t want to deal with the business side. He’s 65 ya know. People get tired. Either way Cuban is worth 5.5B. Jeanie is 600M. Cuban is way richer than Jeanie and he didn’t want to deal with that noise. Either way it’s not about net worth. It’s about cash flow. I would imagine Lakers have higher cash flow than the Mavs.

Yeah he did. The main point is the Mavs now are set up with even more $$.

Cuban says the model is changing from media driven revenue to real estate driven revenue (owning your own building, etc.). Cuban knows nothing about commercial real estate and, at his age, figured it was smarter to partner with real estate moguls than to try to learn a new business.
I started a thread a few seasons ago suggesting that the Lakers build their own building rather than re-upping with Crypto. My guess is that the family didn't want to have to mortgage the team to finance a build, but the Warriors are comfortably paying the Chase Center mortgage just with non-Warriors events.
Ballmer isn't building his arena to get away from the Lakers. He's building it because he's going to make a boatload of money off of it. _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".

For a young team maybe. Jeanie has empowered Bron to have more say than coaches. Just like his mouthpiece ShayShay said: if bron wanted Frank he would still be here. If bron wanted Hamm he would still be here. Any coach we hire will be because of bron. _________________ Kobe.

The speculation is that he thinks team valuations are peaking, that while this next TV deal will be big, the one after that might not be as big. Audiences are becoming increasingly fragmented and the younger generation is more likely to consume basketball via social media than watching a game, and that’s a monumental difference in terms of advertising for the future.
The real estate aspect someone pointed out is significant as well.

You could make this exact same argument with ANY COACH if that's the case, and it would make it an even worse idea to hire a rookie Coach that exists only for LeBron to not really have to be coached. How'd that work out in Brooklyn with Steve Nash?
So no, go with the best Coach, and forget about if LeBron gets in his feelings about it. If he has a problem we can ship his butt to Phoenix for KD and then he can play all the point guard he wants with the two "stars" Booker and Beal. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

If the owner/FO don't have a plan for where they want to go, I'm not surprised that they keep going around in circles. After all the changes to the roster and coaches, the trend is still not going in the right direction. Maybe that says something about the things that haven't changed.
