It's early. Ideally he learns on the job somewhere else. He's gonna have some issues with rabbit ears early in his career, IMO - ESPECIALLY in LA. And he's gonna need to get that figured out.
I'd prefer he get that figured out in Orlando before the Lakers snipe him.
But this hire has some upside to it. He might be good. He might be Luke Walton. It's just hard to know.

I have no idea. I barely remember the guy when he was a player. He was decent, as I recall. If I had a take, it would be that his lack of experience is going to prevent him from winning a Ring in LA. But who knows? The NBA at this point is much more about the players and their individual talent than it is about team chemistry/scheme/coaching so maybe he'll just ride a good team to the Finals.
