I think this will be the downside of the Mike Brown hiring -- he's gonna give a lot of free agents "pause". Not that he's a bad coach, he's just young (in coaching experience terms) and I could see some of the big name guys the Lakers would have had a great shot at this year waiting to see how things play out next season. If it looks like a couple years of Rudy T style flailing around, the big draw in LA may change from the Lakeshow to the "Blakeshow" in a hurry.
