First, Mike Brown was fired by the Lakers, and Mike D'Antoni's name came up.

Just because the lakers have Steve Nash does not mean Dantonio is the wave. y'all gonna force the team to score 120+ every game just to win

Lakers want Phil or Dantonio? In other words it's Dantonio if PJ say no

Then, this morning, D'Antoni was hired.

If the Lakers hit another rough patch , do you think Players will have Dantonio back?#hellnaw
