Column: He might be a long shot, but Doc Rivers still Lakers best shot for coach
You might not like him, maybe you revile him, but Doc Rivers is the right coach to replace Frank Vogel, writes L.A. Times columnist Bill Plaschke.
“I just think he’s a great coach,” Morey said. “I love working with him. I feel like I’m learning from him … and we’re gonna see where this journey takes us … but we feel very good about where it’s gonna take us, and it’s gonna be where we have a very good chance to win the title.” If both sides really want this to happen, it should happen. Though it seems like a long shot, it still could happen, because here’s guessing Rivers wants it to happen.
They’re not built to win a championship, not so long as the aging James is paired with the brittle Davis, so they need a coach who can simply keep this tempestuous group calm and competitive and relevant until the next era begins.They need someone who can keep the path smooth for James as he breaks Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring record next season and perhaps retires the following year.
