Me too - if they are willing to wait for me to make a decision.
Also, if there is any truth to this, it would probably have a significant bearing on my decision.

Wonder why the Lakers didn't take a run at Spo? He seems like he might enjoy the bright lights of LA. Probably couldn't get him, but worth a try?

When it comes to the Lakers and their management making coaching decisions, I wonder a lot of things.
Heck, Luke Walton coached over 200 games for that team. My mother wouldn't have been a much worse choice to coach those 200+ games.

Hurley is cocky enough to say "I could go there and win a championship". He definitely has the personality and skill as a coach to do it. Because I don't like him and don't want to lose to Uconn I hope he goes for it.

Exactly what I said (and expected), "Let the Jimmy Buckets rumors begin".
Simple Google search of - Jimmy Butler to LA - comes back with a whole bunch of rumors.
Seems a lot of differing opinions - and Jimmy feeling the need to elaborate.

There was also a viral video of her picking Jimmy as the better player over most of the stars in the league. She's a fan of his game apparently. I'm sure is what inspired him to throw on her jersey and go to the game

Hurley will announce tomorrow his "decision". Maybe he'll do a cool TV special like LeBron?

More attention.

I'd be shocked if he is taking the Lakers job.

Me too (be shocked) but two things make me think he just might.
A. Why bother to talk to them and waste their time and his if there wasn't at least some interest?
B. Why wait to announce? Flying back to Storrs and meeting with his staff in person to tell them - see ya - or I'm bringing you to LA?
