    It's a 4 year deal as well.

    I don't know. I kind of like this for the Lakers.

    Holy crap Lakers are about to be one of the worst defensive teams in the league.

    Source confirms the same to me RT @Mike_Bresnahan: Source: Mike D'Antoni will be the next coach of the Lakers. Not Phil Jackson
    Lakers won't have D'Antoni in place till later in the week; he's awaiting medical clearance post-knee surgery.
    Kobe made it clear he wanted Phil, but said after game tonight that he let Lakers know he was fine with D'Antoni.

    @ESPNSteinLine
    Says one source of LA Times report that Mike D'Antoni will coach Lakers: "Yes ... just happened."

    Honestly, I love the move for the Lakers. I realize its not Phil but its a great second option if true. If they can pick up on the defensive end they'll be right back where they were projected.

    Kobe today said that Dantoni would be a great coach for them. Understandable if Phil was asking for increased control + travel restrictions.

    The travel restrictions are probably what killed it. If he isn't on the road consistently, and say he does go on the road and gets tired (like we saw in his final year), it does indeed affect his coaching... still better than Dantoni by a large margin, but Dantoni >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Brown

    Phil asking "for the moon" is what killed it.
