Will Phil return to the Lakers?
I just can't imagine why on earth Phil would want to go backwards. It kills me that anything Buss does has to have Kobe's seal of approval. How weak is that?

It's simply not a good idea.

I think if Phil returns to coaching it will be anywhere BUT LA. I still think Portland is a good option for him.
