Rob Pelinka, the Lakers’ vice president of basketball operations and general manager, responded by saying that “NBA head coaching experience and NBA experience aren’t mutually exclusive things,” and praised the former shooting guard as someone who can be innovative not only on the sidelines, but throughout the organization. “I think in industry in general, and in sports in particular, it’s easy to get caught up in patterns of being in a sea of sameness and doing the same thing that everyone else is doing,” said Pelinka, who sat next to Redick during the press conference. “But, when we began this investigation, it was incredibly critical for us to see if We could try something a little different. And it was clear from our interactions with JJ that he had a unique viewpoint and philosophy on basketball and how it should be taught.”
According to ABC News, JJ Redick of the Los Angeles Lakers has ended his podcasting career and stated that his main ambition is to win By Dave McMenamin. June 25, 2024 at 12:59 AM El Segundo, Calif. — JJ Redick was announced as the Los Angeles Lakers’ coach on Monday, and the recent podcast host and NBA television analyst was quick to highlight the most obvious gap from his record. “I have never coached in the NBA before,” Redick remarked. “I don’t know if you guys have heard that.” Redick, whose first day on the job coincided with his 40th birthday, will retire after a 15-year playing career in 2021. After playing at Duke University and making the 20th most 3-pointers in NBA history, he stayed linked to basketball through various media channels, including co-hosting a podcast with LeBron James called “Mind
Rob Pelinka, the Lakers’ vice president of basketball operations and general manager, argued that “NBA head coaching experience and NBA experience aren’t mutually exclusive things,” and praised the former shooting guard for his ability to innovate not only on the sidelines but also in shaping the organization. “I think in industry in general, and in sports in particular, it’s easy to get caught up in patterns of being in a sea of sameness and doing the same thing that everyone else is doing,” said Pelinka, who sat next to Redick during the press conference. “But, when we began this investigation, it was incredibly critical for us to see if We could try something a little different. And it was clear from our interactions with JJ that he had a unique viewpoint and philosophy on basketball and how it should be taught.” Redick signed a four-year contract last week, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Between Games 2 and 3 of the Finals, University of Connecticut men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley turned down a six-year, $70 million offer from the Lakers, according to Wojnarowski, after Redick had previously discussed the position with Pelinka. “During that whole [courtship of Hurley], at no point was my ego or feelings hurt or bruised in any way,” Redick recalled. “Dan Hurley is a two-time national champion for UConn.

Redick, whose production company signed a multi-million dollar distribution deal with Wondery and Amazon Music for his “Old Man and the Three” podcast in 2022, said his former coach with the Dallas Mavericks, Rick Carlisle, “planted the seed” to consider coaching, and he became completely committed to the idea after interviewing with the Toronto Raptors seek a coaching vacancy in May 2023. “It was really after I interviewed for the Toronto job last year that I knew that I wanted to be a head coach in the NBA,” Redick said. “And so the last year, I spent a lot of time talking to coaches, talking with GMs, picking their brains. … I just felt like this is what I’m supposed to be doing.” His podcast with James, which began in late March, will be discontinued. “For the time being being, and hopefully it’s a very, very long time, I am excommunicated from the content space,” Redick informed reporters. “So there will be no podcast. … I’m done with podcasting for now.”
