Former Lakers Majority Owner Mark Walter Discussion

I usually do not agree with you on almost anything. This is 100% my thinking.

 

Don’t ever disagree with me again. Look to LT for results. 10 years of it.

 

Go eat an olive

 

LOL there you go again. 10 years of WHAT? You have Mozgov! That's it. And other opinions of yours, not conceded here. We're even though NOW as I claim with my crystal ball a win that Bronny will stick in the NBA ...... somewhere. As to your crystal ball claiming it will never happen.

 

listen, bruv, you know damn well I’ve been right on every dinkus player the lakers have had.

 

So..I wonder if Luka knew the team was getting sold? You know..with how Walter was always, in constant contact with him and all that.(allegedly)

 

Honestly, I have no idea what this all means and doubt anyone who is chiming in too far in one direction or another. Its clear something is up with that fed investigation so Mark decided to make a couple of billion and get out of here. Crazy now, but I think when the dust settles on the investigation things will be a bit clearer. At least I hope.

As far as Iger and Kushner, I truly do not know. A lot of owners aren't exactly great people, so I guess we will see. Iger, for all his faults, does not strike me as bad as the guy running the Trailblazers but time will tell.

 

I don't think even Walter knew the team was getting sold until Sunday or whenever this kicked off.

It takes time to put together ownership groups and get that kind of capital together. I know the story is that they were already looking at a Vegas expansion team but going from that to buying the Lakers with no prior movement before like Sunday or Monday is really hard for me to believe.

 

Ironically..it looks like Walter might be in more hot water than Ballmer.

 

Right. Just no way he sells the team this quickly unless there was some bad stuff brewing IMO

 

Ballmer tried to sell off Kawhi to Toronto again. That was another sign that this s*** is about to go south for them.

Scummy dudes man.

 

you complete me.

 

Must be bad if he was forced to sell.

 

It must be

Tough to sell such a storied franchise like the Lakers

 

It's legitimately a one in a billion and a once in a lifetime opportunity, to have to get out of it within 12 months is terrible.

I thought they were a good fit running the Dodgers so well and was looking forward to the modernisation of the team. Not sure what happens now.

 

Dodgers are next.

 

walter needed the cash to pay off whoever he owed

simple as. you don't buy the lakers to flip them a year later
