Lakers should interview these 3 coaches

| | Comments (0) |

Just a suggestion, but here are three names who should receive interviews to replace Phil Jackson as the Lakers' coach next season: Brian Shaw, Rick Adelman and Mike Dunleavy. Shaw served for many years as one of Jackson's assistants. He also played for him early in the 2000s and knows the ins-and-outs of the triangle offense. Adelman has ties to Southern California and has the NBA coaching experience Shaw lacks. Dunleavy has coached the Lakers and the Clippers, among other stops in his career. He also has experience running the triangle. He is the rare coach who helped to guide the Clippers to the playoffs, when they reached the second round in 2005-06.
