00:00Are we going to go down the dirt road again with a crappy assistant coach who's not going
00:07to be a great coach in Los Angeles?
00:09Do you understand the pressure and the level of coach you need?
00:16Let me explain something to you.
00:17They've had two winners, Riley and Jackson.
00:19That's it.
00:20Okay.
00:21You're either Riley or Jackson or at that level, or they're going to make another mistake.
00:25It's obvious to me that Rob Palenka continues to make mistakes with his hires and either
00:31he listens too much to Jeanne Buss or vice versa.
00:35These two making decisions, they just keep making bad decisions.
00:38Darvin Ham is not a good coach and people saying, oh, he's going to get a job immediately.
00:42No, he isn't.
00:43He's not a good coach.
00:45Secondly, this guy Lee they're talking about now, I don't even know his name.
00:49He's so awful.
00:50I don't want to hear it.
00:51You either get a big name coach or you're going to do it again in two years.
00:55The Lakers go through coaches like you go through Turkey and your refrigerator for sandwiches
01:00every week, putting a kid's lunchbox together.
01:03Okay.
01:04So the Lakers front office is a disaster.
01:06No one ever wants to admit it because LeBron James runs the franchise.
01:11So why don't they just let him pick the new GM, the new coach.
01:14They should get rid of Palenka and bring in a new GM and a new coach because Palenka is
01:18doing a terrible job and they give him all this credit for the bubble championship.
01:22Are you kidding me?
01:24They went mad because LeBron James and Anthony Davis and everyone wasn't allowed to breathe
01:29on anyone and there was no one at the games.
