Sports: Lakers Fire Coach Mike Brown After 5 Games
The LA Lakers front office handed coach Mike Brown his walking papers after just 5 games.
The Lakers landed at the bottom of the NBA Western Conference with a dismal 1-4 record after breaking the bank to sign Steve Nash and Dwight Howard.
Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant reportedly expressed frustration with Brown’s coaching strategy in the days leading up to his sacking. Bryant’s angry stare at Brown in the closing seconds of the Lakers’ loss to Utah on Nov. 7 set tongues wagging.
Brown becomes the 3rd Lakers head coach to lose his job due to Kobe’s tantrums.
But Bryant told reporters that he wasn’t looking at anyone in particular and that he was just mad.
From Sports Illustrated:
Brown’s Lakers team added All-Star players in Dwight Howard and Steve Nash over the summer. They, along with Kobe Bryant, were widely predicted to dominate the league, but the team has struggled at both ends of the floor. The last straw for Brown was apparently Wednesday’s 95-86 loss in Salt Lake City, a loss that didn’t sit well with Bryant.
Former Utah Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan has been linked with the position, while former Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni is known to be well respected by both Nash and Bryant. Further, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports in a tweet that D’Antoni has been specifically discussed amongst Lakers management.

I wonder what folks gonna do, if while sitting in the arena watching these sports, black-man Christ appears like a thief-in-the-night?

Brown just wasn’t the right fit with Lakers mgmt. They should just go with Brian Shaw, take a chance like Dallas did with Avery Johnson
When you make a player the face of the team, they control everything. If Kobe don’t like you, best believe you on your way out.
Oh
Kobe is the money maker…he wins games, what do you expect them to do 
not surprised.

I knew Kobe’s bitch ass would have something to with it.
And guess what, they’re still going to end up with more L’s than W’s. Dwight Howard is a BUM, yes I said it…a BUM as well as a cry baby. Him and Miss. Kobe can both go and have SEVERAL seats!!!
I didn’t realize Kobe Bryant had a lazy eye

broan Shaw is an assistantin Indiana now, that would be at least a three part move unless Indy can do without an assistant. LA may need to take notes from the Indy colts and hire an interim coach in name only and let Kobe basically just coach from the floor. Because if they keep letting him run that front office from the bench nobody’s gonna want the job anyway. Folks already call him Unkoachable Bryant.
*wonders how Redeem determines when she’s gonna show up*

like magic johnson said when he walked in a gym to play pickup ball he never picked the other 4 best players in the gym because they had egos he picked the people he could see that could mesh together. lakers would suck right now with any coach
@REDEEMED
That banana is phallic and offensive. You should be ashamed. Also, I’d prefer the color blue or brown. It will make a nice doorstop.
@bubblicious
I’ont know @bubblicious, I kinda like the dancing banana
@redeemed ok, I do want to purchase the complete bible soon. I checked out the site you told me about. Funny thing I came across that site earlier this year. Those brothers are really on it. I also frequent a few other Hebrew sites that are pretty informative and bring forth truth.
@StillB3lieve
I know I’m gonna see you in Heaven!!!! All praises to the Most High!!!
Such a lively bunch
