More than a bit of negativity following JJ Redick’s hiring as Lakers coach. Folks forget that JJ played for Coach K and has that same kind of hard bark to him. Another narrative going forward is that the Lakers just hired their next great coach. It will be interesting. – 11:13 AM

Roland Lazenby @lazenby
A story I did on Redick in college. Folks questioning him now don’t weigh that he played for the absolutely fierce Coach K and has his own similar bark. This story appears to be an early pre-edit online version.

I think the only sensible answer to “will JJ Redick be a good coach” is “we have no idea he’s never done it before.” You can’t gleam this stuff from a podcast. Being a head coach is like a dozen different full-time jobs. We have no clue how equipped he is to juggle all of them. – 4:10 PM

The Ringer @ringernba
The very same magnetic pull that made JJ Redick one of the most hated college basketball players of all time is what makes him an archetypal Lakers head coach to project onto—both glory and downfall.

My issue with the Lakers isn’t really JJ Redick specifically – but with a team that has maybe a 1-2 year window until LeBron retires picking a coach that will likely need at least that amount of time to learn how to do the job they just hired him to do.
