Not that he was every really in play, but Ty Lue, the Lakers aspirational coach (who, of course, could/should have been hired a few years ago) finally came to an agreement with the Clippers that will keep him on their sidelines for the next five years. Maybe Rob Pelinka was secretly holding out hope that somehow Lue would become available. Well, now that's not a thing. Meanwhile, the reporting is sending out all sorts of signals. That JJ Redick is poking around for potential assistant coaches. That the Lakers are interviewing James Borrego for the gig, and are doing so in earnest. That more guys are coming! That the Lakers are interviewing Borrego, but really it's with the assistant job in mind. In fact, most of the people on the list are really interviewing for second place. What the truth is central to whether or not the Lakers are undertaking a good process to get to the next coach. It's especially important for whether or not they'll be able to put a good staff around Redick, should that be the direction they want to go. There's a lot to sort through, and because you tend to hear absolutely nothing from the team itself, we're all left reading the tea leaves, or interpreting the leaks that emerge. FUN TIMES!
