"I really don't give a F#?k. Like honestly, I want to coach the Lakers. I want to coach the team. I don't want to dispel anything, I don't. I want to become a great coach in the NBA and I want to win Championships. And I want my players to maximize their careers. That's all I care about" - COACH JJ. Motha F'n Redick

[poposaynogo]

Why does Rob look like he just came out of the coke room? 🤣

[damianpierre]

Is anyone else just staring at his hair and didn't even hear a word he said... the first guy

[jaymo]

I’m assuming that YELL was the recorder at 23:10 when JJ said had he and LeBron didn’t talk about the Lakers job 😂😂😂

[DJCalimovement]

Rob fired his barber so he can hire Redick

[BMoney_music]

JJ did great! I was excited when he was discussed. I am even more now!

[The_G_Chad]

I seem to be alone in thinking JJ’s gonna kill it… he was like a player coach and mini of his last stops

[VClll]

I think he’s a really smart dude, he understands what’s expected of him and the team, he knows and admits that he has zero experience and he’s open and excited about it and for it. I honestly think he’ll be a good coach. He knows the game so well. He’s been coached by the games best, he’s played along side the games best, and with his podcasts he talks about the game with the best at the highest level. He’s seen it and heard it and broke it all down the passed 3 years while broadcasting, reporting, analyzing, doing pods, I think despite the lack of coaching experience he’s still ready for this job. The biggest, hardest, most important thing of it all will be getting the players on the roster to believe and go all in with him. If he has the players trust and their belief I think they can actually make some noise in the deep deep west.

Reddick coaching the Lakers is probably the closest equivalent to NBA Twitter coaching a basketball team if you guys are aware of how often he is on Twitter.

[jayforza]

To be honest, they haven’t made a good hire since Phil Jackson.

[LEGENDz]

Waiting for the schedule to be posted to watch Reddick Vs Rivers.

[wilso]

Lebron prob in stands looking like a proud father

[cameronniles]

Jj will be the best 3pt shooter on the team hands down.

[kennethstone]

You gotta Admit this press interview with JJ was Better than Darvin Hams years ago, all Ham basically said was he’s happy to be a lakers coach and let lebron be lebron
