Lakers preparing offer for Hurley

[Bboy Lace]

Lakers haven't kept a coach around for more than 3 years since Phil Jackson. They can definitely be trusted when it comes to loyalty.....smh

Agents like you bro, that’s how, spoon feeding him what they want out there

If agents are leaking to Fanta in the middle of talks huge dollar amounts and being 75% done, gotta think that’s a good sign that this is at least partially for leverage with UConn.

I like the way you think.

Is there a Boneyard record for most posts under one thread? That is the most important question today.

 

[CL82]

You really waited 2 hours for an outdated score update instead of just googling it lmao

What is this "Google" of which you speak?

 

[Horatio]

The chastisement comments up here are the worst. Let people deal with this sudden, traumatic situation in peace. We’re talking the best head coach in the sport leaving, immediate coaching staff instability and immediate roster instability. We’re not dealing with a two week ankle sprain here. And it all flipped in less than a week.

 

[McLovin]

I guess it cuts both ways. A lot of rosters are already set -- I'm sure Liam as a top-10 recruit would still have plenty of options if he decides to change up his team again but fewer than before. Plus he's already at UConn. It's a crappy situation but I don't think it's a given the whole team is just going to transfer out immediately. They'll wait to see who we retain as HC.

Agreed, but it would really put us in a bad spot considering we would have nothing to pivot to in the event people did decide to go. Like we could end up having to bring in a bunch of low level recruits just to have enough bodies.

I hope this ends no later than Monday. Hopefully sooner because let’s be honest this is now going to impact most of our weekends. And most people we interact with will see it and ask what’s wrong and if you give an honest answer they think you are crazy.

So there is that to look forward too this weekend.

My wife has asked me if everything is all right at least 5 times today because I will be blank staring consumed with this situation.

If it is over man that ended too soon. And it was the duck*ng Lakers. Even worse if you are a Celtic fan with all that bad blood. I am a Knicks fan and I never rooted for them.

i cant remeber the last time i watched around the horn, was probably highschool. but i will have espn on all weekend incase there's breaking news. Isola and Torre both just said they think he stays in CT. take that for what it's worth.

And Hurley knows that will happen or could happen. If this decision tanks this season for these kids this late in the process it is going to take some time to recover.

So has the Laker meeting already happened or it hasn’t yet?

 

[UConn Dan]

Is there a Boneyard record for most posts under one thread? That is the most important question today.

I’m sure that title belongs to Non-Key Tweeets at 25k posts and counting followed by Key Tweets at 21k posts and counting, both in the conference realignment board.

After the Cooper Flagg debacle I think I’d rather have Isola just stay quiet

Isola also predicted Flagg was choosing UConn. Really not trying to be a wise a** just it was the first thing that popped in my head when I read your post. No malicious intent.

Well according to Goodman he left LA without signing a contract with them so that’s at least some good news for us, right?

i'd hope so. his agent needs to tell uconn the terms of the lakers offer so we can attempt to close the gap. DB then needs to hand deliver the new contract to hurley at his home in glastonbury

No… he needs to meet him on the damn tarmac with the contract and a pen.

 

[TheChamps990411]

I was responding to the notion that the roster was garbage. They won 47 games in the west with a garbage roster. How many more wins do you think Hurley gives them if he is a better coach than Ham? 2? 5? 10?

Remember they have Bron and Brow and their bringing in Bronny whos the future of the franchise. Theyre loaded and locked in for the future. Seriously i wish it wasnt the Lakers. That being said lets see how this plays out because even if very small there is a chance he stays. I think hes gone but you never know until you know.

 

[NJHusky]

As beloved as Hurley is in these parts now, imagine if you will how beloved he’d be if he ends up staying here for less money and turns the Lakers down.

you mean like he asks his recruits to do?

 

[Rocktheworld]

I’ve spent time in CA. For vacation and work.

I lived in San Diego for 7 years. That’s some time. You haven’t spent any time there and it’s obvious lmao

 

[Dove]

There was a Calhoun quote where he referred to "silly money." What was the reference to? Like, what it would take to take a pro job?

tony kornheiser doesnt think he'll take the job either. i'm ashamed for even posting this. dark times.

Goodman said the plan is for him to leave without signing, but the meeting hasn’t happened yet apparently
