Summary

The Lakers shocked the NBA world Thursday when the news broke (via Woj) that the Lakers are pursing UConn head coach Dan Hurley for their open head coaching gig. They are, reportedly, ready and willing to pay through the wazoo and commit to a lengthy deal in order to entice Hurley to leave Storrs. They're intrigued by Hurley's ability to develop young players and build a program in response to changing eras in the NBA... in addition to his well-earned reputation for offensive innovation (and a high intensity demeanor). So is Hurley an inspired choice? Or is he another version of the Lakers getting caught up chasing the big shiny object? Much more the former. Particularly when the other options are themselves wild cards. You can question whether Hurley will translate, should the Lakers get him, but there's a lot more known there about what kind of coach you're getting than there is with JJ Redick. The reward is still high, but the risk is actually much lower (aside from the extra $ they'll have to put out to make it happen). And how does this path show the Lakers are re-thinking how they operate? HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: Dan Hurley! Where things stand. SEGMENT 2: Is this a good idea? Is Hurley destined to fail like so many other college coaches? SEGMENT 3: What this says about how the Lakers are potentially changing their approach to winning titles.
