Six coaches in 13 years: What's behind this constant churn for the Lakers

More than a decade after he was fired five games into the second year of his Los Angeles Lakers coaching career, Mike Brown admitted he regretted taking the job in the first place. "If I could do it again," Brown said in an interview with Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes on the "All the Smoke" podcast, "I probably wouldn't." NBA Hall of Famer Phil Jackson was just too tough to follow, Brown explained. No one could live up to the standard he had set in L.A. (five NBA titles) and Chicago (six titles).
