    Lakers got their podcast co-host.

    **Edit:** ESPN really said they let go of JVG because they were afraid he’d return to coaching only for his 2 replacements to leave for head coaching jobs in less than 1 season.

  2. Literal_Satan

    Discourse is gonna be in the dirt if they sign him and draft bronny

  3. legend023

    Lakers and the Suns fighting for most incompetent franchise in the league

  4. willbill182

    It’s a move that they are technically making.

  5. sleepy416

    Just wait till ESPN replaces him with Perkins in the booth after this becomes official

  6. george_costanza1234

    NBA is the greatest soap opera of all time

  7. Well, good news is that should kill any “is LeBron coming back to the Lakers?” discourse that the media would have loved to milk.

    We need a word opposite the Woj Bomb, something that was super predictable and we saw coming weeks away

  9. ireallydespiseyouall

    God they’re fucking stupid and so is JJ for taking that job

  10. Klarostorix

    Lakers are tantalized by or enamored with JJ.

  11. xguccigarry

    JJ’s going to be doing his fair share of mid-game interviews next season 😂

  12. ImTheBestNerd

    It’s really that point in 2k when all the retired players start taking over the league

  13. The real loser in this potential hire is my commute to work

  14. ChunkyMilkSubstance

    Damn! Can’t wait to see who the new coach they hire in two seasons is gonna be!

  15. Chief_Slowburn

    Man I like JJ but his coaching experience is his 6 year old son’s team. Truly strange move, feel like they just tryna make Lebron happy at this point

  16. I refuse to see how this can end any way but positively (for JJ’s bank account)

  17. Ilikesporks_

    guess i have nothing to look forward to next season

  18. r/nba consensus opinion is usually wrong, so i guess we’ll have to wait and see

  19. terrell_owens

    Man, I gotta give it to the Lakers. They always manage to keep things entertaining!

  20. MandilitoPapito

    Life after LeBron can’t come soon enough for some Laker fans

  21. Makaveli80

    This isn’t a Lakers front office, this is LeBron show.

    What a disgraceful turn of events for a historically great franchise. 

  22. lets_talk_basketball

    Bron’s pod w/ JJ being a public job interview is hilarious… Had to make sure his basketball IQ was high

  23. I-Love-Redditors

    Please God I don’t ask for much but please let this be so fucking funny

  24. rumblegod

    I hope JJ gets it. Doesn’t hurt there’s no risk and has LeBron respect.
    He’s a young guy too. I think he does great

  25. Jonjon428

    Lmfao can’t wait to come back to this thread in a year from now

  26. rowmean77

    Who is waiting for SAS to say the same criticism that Steve Nash got when he got the Brooklyn job?????

    🙌

  27. JesusSinfulHands

    What’s really funny is that part of the reason ESPN canned Van Gundy was because they were wary of all the rumors that he was searching for another coaching job. So they hire Doc who ditches them after 4 months, then replace him with JJ Redick who also ditches them after 4 months in the top spot.

  28. tehpenguinofd000m

    His press conferences are going to be insufferable

  29. EightBlocked

    The Los Angeles Lakers have been eliminated from championship contention!
