The JJ Redick era in Los Angeles is about to enter year two. His inaugural season as Lakers head coach started really strong... then got a little dicey... then got strong again... then ended unceremoniously with a first-round exit at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves. The team won 50 games in the regular season — pretty good! — but that was quickly washed away by how outclassed the Lakers were in the postseason.
Now with a full season of Luka Donu010diu0107 approaching and a (potentially) more reliable center position with Deandre Ayton in the lineup, Redick must learn from his mistakes as a rookie.
