Is Phil Jackson going to coach next year?

I dont remember but I believe he said he would? I hate his rotations/substitutions tho!

Contract is for 3 years.

As long as we make the playoffs, thats a big improvement. So I think Phil could build on it.

Why would you say that Pioneer? Besides his contract being for 3 years, what gave you the indication that he would be one and done?

Ditto.

yes

he has 20 million reasons to stay the next 2 seasons.

What coach would you guys want if Phil decided not to come back?

It is safe to assume that Brian Shaw is next in line for the job.

1) He's old
2) This team ain't going to get him that 10th title unless the Lakers absolutely pilfer some other team this offseason
3) Brian Shaw is being groomed
4) He's old

You might hate his rotations but Phil Jackson again is showing why he is the best coach of all time IMO: gets crappy players to play at the maximum of there ability. Mihm, Parker, even Brown and Odom now. In the past it was guys like Livingston, Longley, Bison Dele, and BJ armstrong
