    NBA has Jeannies back. At the end of the day, that's all that matters. They're the real power player in all this nonsense.

    Honestly it's not that bad. What I'm reading is that Jim tried a coup that utterly failed and now he and his lawyer are trying to pretend it didn't happen.

    Jim is an idiot.

    Anschutz is salivating.

    You'd think Jim Buss would go quietly into the night... No. If anything, it makes him look bad.

    Exactly. He's trying to save face and is probably trying to save his own seat at the table.

    I'd like to take the high road on this but I'm just going to come right out and say it without any sugarcoating. Johnny and Jim are losers - read up on their pasts. Neither one of them has much brains. Weak attempt at a coup and another failure for both of them. Dr. Buss knew what he was doing when he put Jeannie in charge of the business.

    Jim needs to step quietly back out of the picture now for good. He should not be doing anything more as he is sabotaging himself now as an owner. He is actually in danger of violating his duties as a Trustee. Dumb move.

    This is getting ugly...and Jim has no shame, he definitely wasnt going to step down this off season with the way he's approaching thing right now. I can understand if the team was good and he felt slighted....but dude probably honestly thought he was doing a good job as vp

    I'm glad this drama de-escalated quickly and in the most sensible way. Jim look like a petulant sore loser for sure.

    Yep, it was disheartening seeing these turn of events first thing yesterday... Agree that it is now non-news although someone will bring it up and try to dissect it further.
