To most fan’s surprise, the Los Angeles Lakers and Tyronn Lue – their presumed head coaching hire following the Phoenix Suns’ signing of Monty Williams – have reach an impasse that has ended all negotiations.
Whatever the reason is, it is a further sign of the Lakers’ dysfunction and vulnerability.
Two reasons that should make Phoenix Suns fans feel great about their own franchise’s situation.
To be fair to the Lakers (a statement which just made me throw up in my mouth), it has seemed like LA management was not fond of Lue (one of LeBron James‘ buddies) and they were probably hoping that a sticking point would come up that would prevent he and James from teaming up again, which would seemingly give James that much more power.
