Ok, I have a work around for the cap and coach issue: LeBron as the highest paid player coach of ALL TIME!!! Then we can add Reddick, Rondo, and all his buddies to the bench staff! Heck, they can be player coaches, too! JJ has to have a shot or 5 left in him, right? We can bring back JR Rider for laughs! Chris Bosh and D-Wade can play 5 MPG!
This is a joke as player-coaches we’re prohibited in every CBA since 84-85. Happy Friday!
D’Angelo Russell is expected to decline his $18.6M player option and become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
The Laker guard will be in the market for a long-term, lucrative deal after averaging 18.0 points & 6.3 assists on 41.5% 3-point shooting this year.

With Kidd, Lue, & now Bud gone, Redick is looking more like candidate Lakers need. While Micah Nori or David Adleman are excellent assistant coaches, J.J. Redick is the only Lakers' head coaching candidate with the charisma & starpower to be great head coach like Riley or Jackson https://t.co/mU5J69UNXZ

“LeBron James wants to play up until two more NBA seasons. The Lakers want to bring him back, and want to bring in Bronny James in the second round.
They are going to start coaching interviews next week. I would look at names… pic.twitter.com/Om1Iqyvrwg
