Come on.

Dan Hurley is not the Los Angeles Lakers head coach.

Where did the purple and gold go next plus what the

Madives need to do better to keep up in this series and who is the early leader for

NBA finals MVP will get to it all today on locked on

MBA let's go. You are locked on NBA, your daily NBA podcast, part of the locked on

Podcast network, your team every day. What up y'all? Happy Tuesday and welcome into another edition of Lockdown

MBA where we break down the latest and greatest from around the Association

including today news on the updates on the head coaching front in LA the more. Usually you get Matt more today. You get me. I'm Tony East. I host lockdown

pasters. He's David Rommel. He's here every Tuesday and is one of the hosts to

lockdown heat and David the big non-finals news of the day.

Dan Hurley made his decision.

He's not the Lakers coach.

He's staying at Yukon,

Chasin the third title in a row.

The Lakers coaching search goes elsewhere.

Plus, we'll get to finals talk on the Mabs and what Dallas needs to

needs to do better and who the current leader is for finals MVP. I have a hot take according

to the masses but we must start in Lala Land because surprise I thought he was

gonna take the job given the momentum Dan Hurley not the Lakers coach were you surprised

also and what do you feel like the Lakers do now because sounds like he was their top candidate and they didn't get him.

I was a little and a middle in terms of my surprise level because I think that the prevailing thought and it kind of seems much more likely now that it's played out the way that it has was that Hurley was using the Lakers for some sort of leverage and that the idea was that he really just wanted to stay with Yukon in the first place.
