Late to see this; we're a joke right now, but it can be fixed. She has all the resources she needs; IDK why this is so f****** difficult.
Yeah. The pieces are there but I don’t trust her to execute. We can only pray a guy like Myers really is ready to make a move.
Agreed. I like the addition of Rob when he was hired; I thought it was good, if I'm being honest. However, that was in conjunction with working with Magic, and that apparently didn't work out. Time to clean up, but chances are she won't. My expectations are very low at this point with respect to how she handles this situation...
Ah, he was the one who wrote that ESPN article about Jim/Mitch and how Kobe negatively impacted the franchise. Ironic how Kobe and now Lebron are being painted as the superstar that no other superstar wants to join. As for why Bob Myers would jump ship to join us....he gives a very good potential reason: I like the point that he makes at the very end:
I think I heard it on the Locked on Lakers podcast... The Laker franchise used to be gold, bow they’re just gold plated, and its starting to get chipped off.
So Abbott's sauces are Jimmy/Mitch and possibly their cronies. Good to know. So Magic, Jeanie and even Kobe proxy, Rob, are all fair game. Jeanie needs to go out the house and hire legit made names. If media went this hard at Bron and still would do it to the likes of Myers/Buford, then you know the national anti-Laker sentiment is all the way real. Still like TrueHoops tho. But seriously f*** these anonymous sources. If you don't like the Lakers, put your name next to it and either get fired from the franchise you want to be apart from or be in position where you wont ever be considered a plausible Laker hire to be a part of. Instead we get these hit pieces from cowards hiding in the shadows, possibly still collecting a check or looking to get a check from the Lakers. It's hilarious that some of these NBA sources are present execs in the game and out of 30 teams how many franchises are legit failures in the game now and historically? Yet you put an anonymous tag on em and all of a sudden they get credibility. Wild.
Ramona said this 2 days ago on the Jump, maybe she said it in more detail on like 710 or something, but please, PLEASE let it be true. Jeanie needs to be outside of the Rambis, Pelinka, Luke bubble and really get a feel for how we are looked at right now and how she needs to fix it.
Honestly me too. It was my first thought when Magic left. Prove me wrong Jeannie. Just once, prove me wrong.
Hahaha #Palpatinka If he's in charge of the coaching search, then it doesn't look like he's going anywhere anytime soon. We don't know the whole story yet, but it sure looks like Jeanie sided with Rob over Magic on something and it really f***ed with Magic's head.
