Depends who follows Otz to Storrs?
What happened to Reddick?
That's so weird that a Lebron team would have some instability with this kind of thing.

shams put out an article this morning about the hurly thing
probably did it with his tail between his legs
Historically, the Lakers do not give coaches huge contracts. He makes $5.35M from UConn. Will he get more than that? Probably. But he won't get the $13-17M some NBA coaches are getting.
I would guess this is a leverage move to get a raise from and stay at UConn.
I agree with @Dandy that he is using this for a contract raise at UCONN. The Lakers have roster issues that won't be resolved anytime soon. AD is injury prone, Lebron is older and he still tries to be a player/coach/gm. I don't think Hurley's style will go over well with AD and Lebron.
As I understand it part of Dan Hurley's philosophy and probably success is due to the fact that he's hyper intense and demands a ton from his players, I do not see that translating well to the pros.
I'm fascinated by LA specifically because after they won this Natty, he mentioned his wife is 100% thru and thru an East coaster and expects to be near Jersey.
its LA..... and you are THE COACH in town. would be an awesome experience
