Finally Got Our Man! Jun 21, 2024

Show notes

The Lakers named JJ Redick as their new head coach, and Sliwa had it covered from all angles. Sli thinks JJ will be fine as the head coach, but if he isn’t, it wouldn’t be his fault but that of the front office. Sliwa also took calls on the hiring of the Lakers’ new head coach and many had the same concerns that JJ is not that experienced yet for the job. To talk more about this and other potential moves was Lakers Nation’s Trevor Lane. And then “Crunch Time” with Producer Funch and DeAndre.
