But Kobe defended him in the media...

[IGOTGAME]

Poor form from Aldridge.

[SyRyanYang]

Lol lamarcus, stop acting like a analyst, you're a basketball player, not a smartarse.
But yeah of course Kobe is unhappy with losing, doesn't mean he got mike brown fired.

[Shepseskaf]

Truth from Aldridge.

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Lebron made some comments about it to: http://www.cbssports.com/nba/blog/eye-on-basketball/20923708/lebron-james-thinks-mike-brown-didnt-get-a-fair-shake-aldridge-hints-kobe-behind-firing

The thought of LA bringing in Phil Jackson (to replace Mike Brown) not only has opposing fans shitting themselves, but the the teams and players as well. :oldlol:

[KyrieTheFuture]

Anyone with a brain knows that Kobe being unhappy expedited the process from he's got 10-20 games to hes fired.

[AK47DR91]

Poor form from Aldridge.
Not too often that I agree with you but in this case I agree with you 100%.

LMA isn't even on the Lakers, why even comment about another organization's problems? Just tell the stupid reporters, "No comment; I don't know about their situation." Or something along that line.

[Noob Saibot]

If LaMarcus was an ISH user. I would rep him.

[IGotACoolStory]

I actually agree with this tool. ^

[NumberSix]

Truth from Aldridge.
Perhaps. Perhaps not.

[avonbarksdale]

If one of the best/most popular players EVER who has spent his whole career on your tem is unhappy, i don't see anything wrong with trying to fix it...

[NumberSix]

Not that LA would even know, but what's the problem if it is true? I mean, Mike Brown is a joke. Wouldn't Kobe asking the FO to get rid of him be the right thing to do?

*IF* Kobe did do something to get Mike Brown fired, I say good Job Kobe. You made the correct decision.

[ripthekik]

and here's what Odom has to say:

:bowdown: Aldridge speaking the truth. Kobe is just a spoiled brat.

If Kobe did get Mike Brown fired......

Everyone in the world is calling Mike Brown a horrible coach....but let's vilify Kobe for thinking so too:oldlol:

Let's say Kobe did ask for Mike Brown to be fired.....

GOOD!

That was the right thing to do. Mike Brown has no business being an NBA head coach, let alone the Lakers head coach.

LaMarcus Aldridge states the obvious...

Snitch should keep his pie hole shut. Mike Brown is a terrible coach :facepalm
Mike Brown's not a terrible defensive coach, but he is not suited to be a head coach. If he was a defensive assistant it would be 2000000x better for him, and the team. Let him run the defense, let someone else run everything else.

Oh and if you're a Kobe fan talking about snitching is hilarious... you know Kobe snitching on Shaq...

I'm a Laker fan and Kobe is indeed a snitch too. Anyhow, Brown is not a great defensive coach. He had a lot of blue collar players who worked hard on Cleveland but his defensive schemes are average at best.

I don't think the Lakers stint proves how good of a coach he is one way or the other. Simply put he didn't have enough of a shot with LA imo. Was firing him the right move? You'd better believe it, but hiring him was the original mistake. I think Brown would honestly be best in a situation that he could go into at the ground stages of a rebuild so he could instill his defensive plan in the players at an early junction, and it would allow him to have a hand in making roster moves to further his schemes.

I don't know who will hire him, but we will likely see a Mike Brown sighting in the future. He may not be a good in game adjuster, but game to game he was good, and his defense was very good in Cleveland, while his offense was terrible.

Get him into a situation that he can succeed in, and I fully believe he will. Put him into another situation like the Lakers again, and he will fail. For the record I am not blaming the Lakers team for his failure, that is his cross to bear. A great coach can adapt his style to the team, and that is what makes them great. A good coach can adapt the team to his style, and an average coach can only coach a team built for him.

the funny thing is that if you look at the full death stare clip it wasn't even directed at Mike Brown, but everyone is reporting it like that is what happened. Heck by now probably even Mike Brown and Kobe think that's the truth.

[Nash]

Since when did Mike Brown become this shitty coach in peoples minds? Dude coached a shitty team that had nothing to there to the finals and plenty of 60+ seasons.

Was really easy in the eastern conference, but hey he showed his true colors in the FINALS

[Nash]

All the is easy in the eastern conference, but hey showed his his true colors in the FINALS
That's stupid, Lakers players underperformed. They should look at themselves before blaming the coach. If you have Nash, Kobe, Gasol and Howard on one team, you should be able to do much better than 1-12 even with me being the coach.

Gotta love Lebron Stans....on the Cavs Mike Brown is some horrible coach that isn't fit to coach a rec league team. While on the Lakers it's the players that are to blame :lol

Moron, I just said he lead Cavs to finals and plenty of 60+ games.

[KingLeBronJames]

Magic Johnson got Mike Brown fired.

Riiiiiight who do you think you're fooling you're one of the biggest Lebron apologists on this site. I'm sure as hell sure you weren't blaming Lebron for the Cavs failures, everyone else except the King.

[ispin69]

Everyone knows Kobe is two faced. He'll even say today that he was never responsible for Shaq being shipped even though behind closed doors he threatened to not resign unless he was shipped.

The rape case, the snitching. Telling Howard it will be his team when he retires in 2-3 years. Then once they've signed. He had to make it clear that it was HIS team. Talk about not wanting to share the spotlight because if they win, he's gotta be the alpha dog that made them win and not a second option so he can surpass MJ. Howard might even put up better numbers than Kobe.

Now saying giving Brown the death stare and acting like he didn't want him to go via Facebook?

:biggums:

[DixieNourmous]

So Aldrige says "Kobe wasnt Happy" and the haters come in and hate.


Aldrige didnt say he knows Kobe had something to do with it, just that he "wasn`t Happy". Not a homer but, I CAN understand.

[Haymaker]

Makes me wonder if Kobe went straight to Jerry Buss, since both Mitch and Jim reiterated their support for Brown. What a little bitch.

[RoseCity07]

It's not Aldridge's place to speak on that. Probably should say no comment.

[DavisWarriorsFan]

How the hell does LaMarcus know? lol

[Pointguard]

You have to stop saying that. It wasn't like we all didn't tune in to Cavs beating the Lakers on the regular with Brown as the coach. Unless you think the Lakers were in the Eastern Conference. Even when the Lakers had waaaay more talent the Cavs were beating them. Mike Brown was 5 and 2 against Popovich as well in the regular season. So Brown was beating the best in the West without question. No coach can make a one man team beat five so the finals isn't crazy from a coaching perspective. But you can't use that Eastern Conference argument.

we find out:

kobe unhappy with brown

you take it as:

kobe unhappy with brown
wants him fired
goes to owner to plead him to fire brown because everyone liked brown besides him

At the end of the day if the Lakers scuked with Brown then he should have been fired... Whether it has anything to do with kobe is not important... I could coach the Lakers to a better record than 1-12:roll:

You are a shitty coach if you play Darius Morris for extended minutes when your job is depending on wins and loses. Especially when you the sit Meeks who is a better player.
