Kobe Bryant won’t be getting one his reported approved coaches in LA. According to the LA Times, Derek Fisher has been ruled out as the next Head Coach of the Lakers:
The Lakers have decided they need a coach with previous NBA coaching experience, which means one thing for Derek Fisher: He isn’t a candidate.
He should have never been a candidate to begin with if we are being honest. The Lakers job isn’t one that you learn on the fly even for a respected guy like Fisher. It will be interesting to see if Phil gets his man in New York now.
