**the official la lakers thread**

[[ DUBBZZ ]]

The Los Angeles Lakers are engaged in serious discussions with Mike Brown about the ex-Cleveland Cavaliers coach becoming the franchise’s next coach, league sources told Yahoo! Sports on Tuesday night.

The Lakers are focused on talks with Brown, who was fired in 2010 after five seasons in Cleveland, where he went 272-138.

Los Angeles had considered longtime assistant Brian Shaw, but the focus is now on Brown, who is currently an NBA analyst for ESPN. There could be an agreement in place within the next 24-48 hours, sources say, but nothing has been finalized. Brown expects to reach a resolution one way or another with Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The two sides are working out issues that could be dealbreakers and cause the Lakers to go to another candidate, sources said, but there’s clearly momentum toward Brown becoming the next head coach.


How do you feel about this move Laker fans? Would Mike Brown be a good fit for the Lakers? Who would you prefer, Mike Brown (ex-Cavs coach), Rick Adelman (ex-Rockets head coach), Brian Shaw (current Lakers assistance coach), or someone else? If someone else, then who?

Mike Brown?! Smh...

Wish I had your enthusiasm but the truth is, Kobe is getting older. All the role players are 30 or in 30+.

The bench might be one of the worst in the NBA and the Heat look like they have built one of the greatest teams of all time.

I think LA will have to do some serious maneuvering to make it to the finals again. Kobe has 2 more years tops....

I hear you I'm just talking about this current team. Remember we went 10 years without winning **** after the 80's Lakers got old.

I hope LA gets Dwight Howard, that would put them back in the drivers seat.
