    Magic tried to find his successor, but Riles was like uh uh.

    Riles hasn't done much in recent years there, but the man can certainly construct a star team-up team.

    This is so f***ing easy.

    Fire Pelinka
    Hire Jerry West as consultant
    Bring a real PBO and offer the brink trucks to Bob Myers.
    Hire Sam Prestli as GM
    Hire Monty Williams
    Steal the sun's training staff $$$$
    Hire Magic as your Twitter handle

    David Griffin is out there, make him GM. Move Ryan West to PBO, the guy has been a stallworth with picking talent and have pops consultant him until Jerry wants to really retire. Boom. Done.

    David Griffin got hired by the Pelicans yesterday. If we’re smart we’d go after the cream of the crop guys, Bob Meyers, RC Buford, Sam Presti, Masai Ujiri, that bastard Kevin Pritchard, etc.

    Oh, wow. Didn't know that. I don't think it matters. Looks like Rob Lowe will continue those duties.

    It does, the incompetence at the top is truly stunning at this point.

    If Pelinka ends up staying there, then it means he gets promoted and they will have Ryan West or Jesse Buss as the understudy/ GM. Some win there. Both those guys are great. But do they have the courage to stand up to Pelinka when he's wrong?

    Doesn't mean much when you are probably just less terrible.

    Ya that's what I'm talking about. I do think he understands basketball, certainly much better than the Lakers FO.

    The thing we do NOT need right now is another PR nightmare. Thats why I also do not think Colangelo should get any consideration.

    But at the end of the day...it seems like Lakers will roll with their lame duck GM in charge...Snitch Devil.
