I want to believe him because Riley and Spo coming to the Lakers will mean a lot of winning seasons in the future.
Yeah, just like all those winning seasons Miami has had since Lebron left.
Any team would having losing seasons if the GOAT left the team, just like Jordan, bringing in Riley and Spo will give us more winning formula, unless you are a Luke guy and you love his buddies.
If LeBron is the key to winning, then why bother changing coaches
Riley and Spo winning history >>> Luke winning history

Idiotic. Does everyone forget that Lebron does NOT like Pat Riley.
We’re trading Lebron for Michael Cooper and signing Kareem as a FA. The band is getting back together! _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.
Riley turns 74 this year. League valuations at an all time high with a strong national media contract and potential growth in foreign markets and gambling revenue. Sounds like a good time to divest

Meanwhile, the Heat have determined that Spoelstra will be a long-term fit with the roster as the two sides finalize a contract extension that will keep the coach in place for at least the next three seasons. Spoelstra, 45, was set to enter the final season on his contract but the team had always planned to extend a deal that would grant him a pay raise and increased role in personnel matters, sources said.
Riley's been riding that golden parachute for the last 30 some years... why would he ruin that? why would he do that to himself? _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

Don't do it to yourself man. This rumor is a complete nothing-burger. Your posts are going to end up on some other team's forum in the thread where they quote funny posts from rival fans.

Someone tell me why it is such a horrible thing for Luke to hire his buddies as assistant coaches while it seems fine for Jeanie to hire her buddies to run the team? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

I don't think I could deal with an entire half-season of Spoelstra making that douchey grin every time the refs make a call he doesn't like. Worse than having to watch Mike Brown chew sunflower seeds and spit them into a cup. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Amen VLF!
This cronyism that come with "family owned" businesses is exactly why we've fallen so far from grace!
We don't need Pat Riley, or Byron Scott or Kurt Rambis, or Derek Fisher, or .... I don't need to see Robert Horry or Jamison or former players who have trouble formulating a (bleep) sentence on TV trying to analyze games.
We need a front office and coaches who have evolved along side the NBA and have earned positions based on their individual accomplishments/merits.
Magic would be a bit more hands-off/ ownership type. Riley would make the decisions.
Magic being hands off would be like Kobe playing off ball.
kobe played off ball quite well when he had a real gp for one season in GP. same would happen with magic. not knocking pelinka. he's new. the truth is all leaders are not always hands on. some leaders take that stance if they are not sure that the person under them can do the job without them being hands on early on. but these same types will back off if they have a vet that has been there done that multiple times over. like a pat riley. but i'm just stating yapping because this rumor is not true.

Truth. C level employees are more like visionaries and employ the right staff to execute their vision.
