Dan Hurley makes good decisions — including his choice not to take the Lakers job
FILE – UConn head coach Dan Hurley hugs forward Alex Karaban during the second half of the NCAA college Final Four championship basketball game against Purdue, Monday, April 8, 2024, in Glendale, Ariz. Dan Hurley said in a radio appearance Thursday, June 13, that his rejection of a six-year, $70 million offer to coach the Los Angeles Lakers wasn’t a “leverage play” because he had already agreed to new contract with UConn. In this case, men first.
First of all, I don’t believe John Wooden, Red Auerbach, Phil Jackson — or a combination of all three — could coach the Lakers to a title anytime soon. They simply aren’t good enough. Think about it. Monty Williams makes $13 million per year coaching Detroit, the worst team in the league. USA Basketball has left her off the women’s Olympic team, and on talent alone — plus, she was at Iowa and unable to attend tryouts — she didn’t deserve to make it. Now with Indiana in the WNBA, she is far from being the best female player in the world.
They didn’t belong on that team, either, but at the time, basketball needed their fame. And although they blasted and gave autographs to every team they played, the Dreamers gave birth to international basketball. You have to go back to James Harden in 2018 to find an NBA MVP who was born in this country.. One of the greatest basketball players, the No. 1 clutch shooter, and the best general manager in the history of sports. Any sport. …hooked up 1-on-1, man, it was magic.
