According to Woj the Suns fired their coach to try and snipe Williams from us.

The coach they just fired is a well respected tactician, so it will be interesting to see what happens with him.


If Monty chooses PHX over the Lakers he wasn't the right man for the job

Perhaps with Monty Williams potentially off the table, our list of HC vacancy candidates will grow.

I don’t know why any coach would pick the Suns over us after what just happened. The Suns didn’t even give the main a PG and fired him after one season despite apparently being happy with him and planning to bring him back initially.

Thoughts on grabbing Igor as a assistant if we hire Ty Lue?

This Monty thing with Phoenix feels like it's planted by his agent to make us speed things up. Monty can't be that desperate.

Lots of Laker fans also saying the same thing on Reddit and Twitter, they think it would be valuable to have Igor being the defensive guru on our coaching staff.

He’s an offense guy.

I like the connection with Snyder as he’s highly regarded for his offense.

I didn’t watch much of the suns this year but I’m imagine Igor could have a field day working with lebron to start.

Suns have a history of making bad decisions, Igor ended up being the scapegoat when in reality the roster construction the Suns created was there main problem...

I don’t know anything about the Suns organization because I don’t follow them like that because who cares. But Woj’s tweets about this firing… It was literally OK they fired the guy followed by “they had planned to give him a two-year extension”. What? So what happened in between there?

JVG and call it good. At least get someone in there who knows what he’s doing.

Lue would just be a lap dog for LeBron.

A Popovich, PJ, Jerry Sloan, Pat Riley ain’t available for us.

We went innovative with Luke and he couldn’t figure a rotation that most of us arm chairs could. At least he fought for his guys I’ll give him that. Barked at the refs seemingly every time down. Wasn’t fit for a HC at least not yet.

Unless we can get Kawhi or KD this summer, steadying the ship is the best course of option, hoping Bi, Zion Williamson, Lonzo turn out to be studs. This is the year to show it.

So basically as the Lakers are doing their "second round" of interviews the suns will swoop in and grab the best candidate the Lakers have interviewed so far before their second interview.

We are constantly harping on the Lakers not doing their due diligence. Now you want to knock them for trying to do things the right way?

Based on my current analysis of Monty Williams, I am not sure he would be a good fit in Phoenix. Maybe they envision him using Ayton like he did Davis.

Between the 3 top candidates the Lakers are looking at which do you think is the best fit for our team? Lue, Juwan, or Monty?

Gonna be interesting to see him get Devin Booker to play defense.

If the Suns grab Williams, it might open the door for the Lakers to look at other candidates... so I won’t be mad if Williams chooses the Suns.

I don’t have a problem with Williams depending on some things, but I don’t really understand why he is in such high demand.
