LeBron James has garnered somewhat of a reputation during his Hall of Fame career as a ‘coach killer.’
Despite the Los Angeles Lakers being James’ fourth team, head coach Frank Vogel will be his eighth one. James most notably gained this reputation when then-Cleveland Cavaliers head coach David Blatt was replaced by assistant coach Tyronn Lue during his second stint.
While James never vocalized any issues he had with head coach Luke Walton in his first season with the Lakers, it’s unlikely that he approved of the game plan. As is the case with one of the greatest players of all time, it’s probable that James was at the least informed of these head coaching changes before they happened.
