    He clearly tweets that she is getting rid of him one way or another and that she is getting a lawyer to fire and then sue him.

    I’m personally confused as to why Pelinka is enemy number one, maybe I’ve missed something.

    someone posted that it was Rob who got caught tampering but Magic took the PR hit and took the blame, also that Rob is the one back stabbing Magic

    It’s been announced that Jeanie, Rob and Luke will not be speaking to the press today after the exit interviews. Jeanie needs to get it together. The Lakers need a leader right now and if she wants to be it, she needs to start acting like it. She needs to make some kind of statement to the press. It can be the standard “we will explore all candidates, we believe in our team” yadda yadda but hiding out is not an option. We are already seen as weak and disorganized. Leaders step up in times of need. If she can’t do that, then she the wrong person for the job.

    so exciting I just had to come back ... oh my cod!

    I did say in my state of the Lakers comment that the FO had to take a hard look at the training staff. Did I call that or what? Now Jeanie needs to have someone with experience to help find Nunez's successor and a staff to go with that. Of course if she hires a new PBO soon, he can do that.

    At this point, everything is just "alleged" with Pelinka's less than stellar conduct. I'd prefer him gone too, but that contract he won't let go of gives me pause. Have to remember the Buss family doesn't have any money makers outside of the team. So if Jeanie wants Pelinka out, she's gotta get started with the "alleged" lawsuits.

    Get Griffin. He's the best available and he is on good terms with Lebron. Promote Ryan West to assistant GM and let Griffin mentor him. Done.

    I still want Luke fired too. If he stays, it had better be on the condition that he gets rid of his buddies and hires some real coaches with experience. He may be the kind of people person that everyone wants around, but technically he isn't very good at anything other than defense and that needs to change as soon as possible. Lebron's short window demands it.

    The buck stops at Jeanie's desk.

    Rob will probably be promoted to PBO and hire Peter Popoff as our next head of medical staff.

    LMFAO



    Sorry Jeanie, your Jim shield is gone and the guy who was taking all the heat for you just quit. You don’t hire the right person next and you’re the next target.

    Best thing Jeanie has done was get rid of her brother. She knows business, but not basketball. She can't keep the franchise positions in house/in the family. Doesn't work these days. Time to get with the times or let someone else who knows how this works to have control of the team. This is too prestigious of an organization for it to be the current punchline, revolving door, dumpster that it is today.

    Neither of her brothers, biological or self-claimed, could fix it. Time to look outside of Staples (unless you're bringing the Logo home) for help. Kurt Rambis isn't the answer. More power to Rob Lowe isn't the answer. Letting Bron's crew run it isn't the answer. No time to continue to get these type of decisions wrong. There is too much at stake this summer.

    Also, (read a tweet saying this and couldn't agree more) it is simply inexcusable that Greg Oden's brother--Bonga has spoken more about Magic Johnson leaving than Jeanie has. This is her team. Woman the F up and at least trick people into thinking you have some clue as to what you are doing and that the building isn't on fire.
