Re: 2012-13 Around the NBA thread
Finally i get to talk about my sport!
To everyone worried about the Lakers D: Nate McMillan is a phone call away... true defensive guru, expect him to be hired within the week. We don't have to be a defensive juggernaut, all McMillan has to do is remind the guys to play some D sometimes so we can outscore them.
To some the firing of Mike Brown was a knee jerk reaction, but it was obvious the move had to be made at one point or another. He was never the right hire to begin with and the players simply didn't respect him; he couldn't motivate them. He isn't a championship head coach. The Princeton neutralized Nash, with our personnel he needs to be the focal point - the QB.
Of course Mike O'Antoni's system is going to be tough to make work, but they can do it. Too many great basketball minds not to. Metta is the only guy I'm worried about in this system, but D'Antoni will make Morris, Meeks, Ebanks, Jamison & Hill worth double their salary.
