Glad to see it happen.

Whether you think he deserved all, most, or just some of the blame, hard to argue he was the best person for the job going forward.

Tyronn Lue probably heads there if Balmer gives him permission

Just cause the team feels the coach is one of the problems and that it’s something they can try solve doesn’t mean the team thinks he’s the only problem.

The Lakers will hire Lebron top HC in Ty Lue and will make him the highest paid NBA coach. If they don't, Lebron will not resign with them and will move on to play with Bronny.

Ham now gets to play all day with his collection of challenges he’s taken home.

Budenholzer or Atkinson, not Lue, Lakers will have the same issues if it is Lue.

Silver should name the In-Season Championship Trophy after him for his sacrifice.

He had some really questionable lineups. Though the Lakers overachieved still.

This man saw Denver go on a 14-0 run late in the game and did nothing other than stick his hands in his pockets. The Lakers have many problems, some fixable, some not so fixable, but coaching was definitely one of them. Some of the rotations this man ran should get you a ticket to an asylum. He had to go.

So who's the next sacrificial lamb to coach the Lakers.
