Lakers’ Q&A: Metta World Peace on his interest in coaching, defending Byron Scott

Below is an edited transcript of part 1 of my Q&A with Lakers veteran forward Metta World Peace, who talked in depth about his interest in coaching during a recent lunch interview with Los Angeles News Group.


How did you get interested in coaching?

World Peace: “It started when I first started playing basketball, I went to five star basketball camp back in 1999. It was fun. I coached Danny Green. He was one of my players. I remember him being the best on the team and I remember him sometimes not shooting.
