Former Lakers assistant coach Brian Shaw has interviewed to become an associate head coach with the Indiana Pacers, though he hasn’t reached a deal, according to several NBA officials with knowledge of the negotiations who were not authorized to speak publicly.

Shaw, 45, interviewed with Pacers President Larry Bird this week and would be the right-hand man for Frank Vogel. Vogel was the Pacers’ interim coach for part of last season and Bird has said Vogel is the front-runner to be head coach for next season.

With NBA stars from veteran Kevin Garnett to Blake Griffin standing behind him, union President Derek Fisher said that players won’t accept a bad deal to avert a work stoppage.

“We’d love to avoid a lockout, but we’re unified in the sense of not being afraid if that’s what we’re faced with,” the Lakers guard said.
