Ex- Lakers coach Byron Scott: Given he makes coaching and player decisions anyway, just make LeBron the head coach
Byron appears on Spectrum so he’s employed by the Lakers. It won’t be a stretch to assume this is probably what the FO thinks as well or something close to it.
You think LeBron is going to be able to out coach Michael Malone in a playoff series while he’s also playing? PLEASE.
He’s a talented player, but he’s not a god.

LeBron wanted Westbrook lol.
HeyVeddy
He spoke as a frustrated coach.
I think coaches don’t like seeing coaches get fired, so there is logic to make LeBron the coach until you find the right fit, instead of having someone crash and fail and get shit on while roster is weak
When Kareem did it I’m pretty sure they had like max three coaches. Coach teams now are like 10+, think it’s way harder/impossible to be a player coach now tbh

CBA hasn’t allowed it since the 1980s.
That would be an absolute disaster.
