I'm surprised that the Lakers fired Brown this early, considering that there was a realistic chance of the team improving with six straight home games coming up and Nash getting healthier. But not surprised at all that he was fired - it was a matter of time. As Magic Johnson said, Brown wasn't really the right coach for this team. He's not like Erik Spoelstra who was homegrown and knew the Heat organization and system. Si Brown, hugot na, tapos si Phil Jackson pa ang sinundan. Patay talaga tayo diyan. The All-Star Lakers need an All-Star coach. Problema lang, who's capable and willing to take this challenge?
Good thing all this turmoil is happening at this early stage in the season. The Lakers still have lots of time to turn this around.

In other news, the Knicks just released their Winter League jerseys which they will wear beginning their Christmas Day match-up vs. the Lakers and every weekend home game thereafter.
Stabilo orange. Mas mahirap na bantayan si Melo nito.
I understand that other teams will also have similar monochromatic Winter League jerseys.
