Los Angeles Lakers fans are buzzing with excitement after the news broke that the Detroit Pistons have fired head coach Monty Williams. Despite having five years and over $65 million left on his contract, Williams is now on the market, and Lakers fans are eager to see him lead their team next season.
The Lakers recently parted ways with head coach Darvin Ham after a two-year stint, leaving a high-profile coaching vacancy in the organization. Fans have taken to social media to express their support for Williams as the next head coach of the team, with many preferring him over the rumored candidate, JJ Redick.
On Twitter, Lakers fans have been vocal about their desire to see Monty Williams take the helm. Many believe that Williams, who has previous coaching experience, would be a better fit for the team than Redick. Some fans even went as far as to say they would riot if the Lakers chose Redick over Williams.
While the Lakers initially tried to lure Dan Hurley away from UConn to fill the coaching position, he decided to stay put. As a result, the team is now considering interviewing JJ Redick for the role. However, many fans are still hoping that the Lakers will make a move to hire Monty Williams instead.
With the coaching search ongoing, Lakers fans are anxiously waiting to see who will ultimately lead their team next season. Stay tuned for more updates and analysis on this developing story.
