    Well, like the article points out, this was only formally settled in court for good on April 3rd, so that's fairly recent. Also, most of it does come from Jeanie's camp, but I consider Ramona a much more neural reporter than Ding, and a lot of this is also factual stuff documented because of all the legal stuff that was filed and then them going to court. It's one thing to say stuff about Jim to make him look bad, it's another to detail his evil plot with documentation.

    I hope this is the last we hear of this fiasco. Time to move on.

    I hope this is the last article I ever see about the whole Buss family drama. I want to hear articles about Ingram training with Kobe. Randle, Russell and JC working on their defensive principles. The Jim and Jeanie s***show should be over and done with.

    @LTLakerFan the value of a woman is not in her weight or physical condition or physique, but in the gentleness of her heart, in her warrior spirit, the strength and resolve of her inner Mother Bear, the kind words from her mouth, and in the beauty of her mind.

    How dare you blame me for you so shallowly viewing women as sexual playthings here for nothing but our pleasure. Women are supposed to be....

    You like really really big women. OKaay. I get it. But meant your ability to have people first react like :ShaqOh2: maybe even :Shaqsurprised2: but in the end ... hopefully ....:Shaqlaughing 2: .... while the Lakers turn in a 27-55 stinker of a season. Tough act to follow though. :DNO2:

    Why would Jerry want to leave his cushy consultant's job with the juggler's knot Warriors (assuming they would want to re-sign him) to return to the Lakers? Apparently not happening per Jeanie's choice, and there are in fact a number of smart basketball people putting their heads together to get the Lakers hopefully back on track. Just wondering if these stories are true?

    I'm just not sure I buy the story. First of all, the Lakers aren't allowed to talk to Jerry about business until the end of the season when Jerry's contract is up. Second of all, bringing Jerry back seems like the kind of move this FO would love to make. Bring back a legend to help the rebuild? Isn't that what this FO is all about?

    But say it is true, the Lakers may feel like they've got enough voices in the decision making process. Or hey maybe they feel like they'd like to give the younger West more of an opportunity to excel and having his father around would just be undermining him?

    Something about this story doesn't smell right to me, but even if it is true I'm willing to give this FO a chance first.

    f***ing idiot.

    EDIT:

    I tried to edit the post, to make some kind of peaceful comment....

    Nope. He is a f***ing moron.

    I think we are doomed.

    Why? I think it's great that he's sending a very clear message. Either come back to camp with 7-8% body fat or less, or you won't see playing time.

    Clear and Concise.

    Also I like that he specified that he and Jenie expect to see championships a few years down the road. Glad they are at least a bit realistic about the jump we'd have to make
