would kobe agree to being paced so as to be fresh in games all throughout the season?
The Kobe of old would have probably shunned equal-opportunity / dynamic offense ...... but he looks to have mellowed a bit through the years & would likely welcome it (as long as he gets those last shots, of course) .... moreso now, when rivals OKC, SAN & LAC have a very potent mix of vets and young horses.
Like I said, Rick Adelman was available a year ago - but Buss & Kupchak chose Mike Brown instead ..... Adelman would have made LAL more dynamic offensively with his proven corner/princeton sets.
Mike Brown is a decent coach, works hard ..... is a good defensive coach - after all, he was a disciple of Larry Brown & Greg Popovich ..... he just doesn't have those offensive sets that Brown & Popovich has. It could be that he had Lebron back in CLE and everything flowed from Lebron in offense.
