    Mike Brown's firing is the equivalent of firing an NFL head coach with 1:28 left in Week 1.

    Not only has it only been five games, but Kobe, Pau, Dwight, and Nash have been on the floor together for all of 45 minutes this season.

    The coach's fate was probably sealed when Kobe and LeBron spent some time comparing Mike Brown notes on Olympic bus rides.

    Former Magic coach Stan Van Gundy called the Lakers' firing of Mike Brown, "the most ridiculous firing in the history of the NBA."
