After the Lakers fired head coach Frank Vogel on Monday, it didn’t take long for sources to leak details on LeBron James’ next coach pick. According to Sam Amick of The Athletic, LeBron wants Mark Jackson to coach his team. “Sources say James would be enthused by the prospect of Mark Jackson landing the job,” said Amick.<\/p>\n

“But as history tells us, that doesn’t mean it will actually happen.” Let’s not forget, both James and Anthony Davis wanted the organization to pursue Russell Westbrook last offseason as well. The four-time MVP needs to be careful what he wishes for.<\/p>\n
