I don't think this was much of a surprise. Clearly, the Lakers are looking to win right now; he was never a good fit.

They should have hired Phil Jackson as his replacement not D'Antoni. Ruined the possibility of a championship.

yeah that ruined the possibility of a championship. It has nothing to do with the old & slow roster that they put together. A lineup that plays very little defense and is mediocre at best from beyond the arc

Once the Lakers make the playoffs, then we will see.

You're going to be waiting until at least next year then, and probably not even then, unless the roster has some serious changes...
