Phil For COY

[ShowtymeCA2NC]

Whats good Laker land,this is my first thread so I want yall to go easy on me...what do you guys think of Phil getting coach of the year if we finish first in the west...I think he deserves a lot more credit than he is getting for where we are as a team right now.what do u guys think

Kobe for MVP
Pjax for COY
Kobe for Finals MVP
2007-2008 NBA champions

thats alot of hardware!

If Kobe doesn't win what should be his 3rd MVP this year, I'm protesting the league.

For me, I just want the Lakers to win a championship. Whatever comes with that is just fine... but the title is what the Lakers legacy is all about!

Phil for COY never the dude never gets up out of his seat to coach.

here's why he should and for this reason only...
last spring kobe fouled up stuff pretty good as we all know.
training camp did not go smooth with kobe pouting and dr.buss's remarks...
phil tried to install a new offense that kobe wanted nothing to do with (before sasha became the machine, kobe was on his way to being the turnover machine) so he installed a new system for the bench and massaged the starters system to take advantage of fisher.

preseason games were rocky at best and yet somehow through all this when the bell rang the lakers came out gunning and haven't really loked back all year long

phils job of management of the turmoil and egos in the lockeroom, the front office and HIS own deserves some serious credit..

that being said..byron scott has done an incredible job in new orleans with that team, getting the max out of his guys and keeping that team playing top level ball all season

Byron Scott...our future coach

Phil is the best coach of his era simply because he can handle todays egos. Player management has become more important than x's and o's in todays sports world.

Its going to be a tough race between Byron and Phil for this one. Im thinking that its leaning a little more toward Scott because they were a totally unexpected team contending for #1 in the west. I also think a lot of people will factor in Gasol as a bigger reason for their success, even though they had success before him. They are both derserving candidates. All i know is Kobe will most likly win the MVP
