    Interested to see how he turns out, seems like he could be a really good coach.

    So how does it work when a coach leaves to another place when he knows the entire system, calls, and plays of his previous team?

    Alvin Gentry went to the Pelicans this year. How did that work out for them?

    Walton's basically a coaching prospect--I give the Lakers credit for trying to unearth a gem rather than just doing the easy thing and grabbing a retread. That's the approach I want us to take, even if it's not Walton. Maybe Ettore Messina, maybe someone else.

    I understand the lore of the Lakers, but the Lakers in their current state?

    I do not know if he made the correct choice at the moment.

    Kevin McHale was a coaching prospect. JB Bickerstaff is a coaching prospect. Morey was trying to unearth a gem...

    McHale was a re-tread. JBB was an interim coach, simply pushed up from the assistants.
