Deja Vu all over again: Mike D'Antoni hired as head coach for the Lakers


I can't really say too much about this cause a legendary Laker by the name of Magic Johnson (ya may have heard of him) said it best to ESPNLA.COM. But to sum up , this is the main quote that matters:

"I don’t feel Mike D’Antoni is the right coach for the Lakers. Especially when you have Phil Jackson sitting out there, who wanted to be the Laker coach." ~ Magic Johnson


The Lakers danced with Phil Jackson for a few days & by most reports it seemed that "the Lakers organization had concluded Jackson was the best -- and perhaps only -- choice to take over the star-laden roster with the hope it will fulfill its championship potential." 
However, 11 championship rings, including 5 with the Lakers, were not enough for L.A. Lakers owner Jerry Buss as apparently wanted "SHOWTIME" back---or something closely resembling it !




Phil Jackson hasn't made a formal statement , however I'm confident it looks like this
