didnt need magic to step down the fo been getting lit up this whole yr...it was a joke of a hire to begin with. No dam consideration for normal process of interviewing multiple candidates, dumb a** jeanie is as dumb as jimbob
what a great 3yr plan Magic....thanks for nothing, you made as much a difference as you did as a HC...freaking chump
Good riddance. I have a lot of mixed emotions about this Props for quitting and walking away knowing you suck at your job. But couldn't you inform your superiors first? You know a poop storm would come PR wise if you do it in public without informing your superiors and have a plan in place? Magic so selfish and egotistical. Just like how he went about all his dealings this year, its all about him.
Remember how much he used to undermine D'Antoni, Jim Buss and Mitch in public (Not that they were great either). Just the way that Magic goes about things rubs me the wrong way. Stick to being the face of the Dodgers .
Oh man, I'm relieved that Magic is gone. As bad as most of his decisions were, at least he got us Lebron. I'd like to think that we traded Dlo + Randle + Zubac for Lebron LOL
So ... all that happy horse bleep when he and Rob first came, with devoting every day max effort to restore the Lakers to greatness. Every single person. Meh .... too much work.
Don't like the way he did it (ran from it, instead of taking on the haters), but media and fans were out for blood. He didn't deserve it and I think it's fitting that he gave this particular fan base and their collective cynical ire a send off like this. Some fans wanted exactly this (him stepping down) and will still complain about it. So I guess they can now look for a new scapegoat. I appreciate your titles and establishing a line with Klutch (Bron-AD-Simmons) and how it was used to s*** on the cbags. I'm positive we'll be fine moving forward and I hope he knows some fans appreciated his efforts. I do not like the optics of this.. but we do have roughly 3 months to find replacements, devise a game plan and hit free agency with purpose. Also if there are any lingering effects from the AD trade, the clearing out of bball ops from both franchises could actually end up leading to #LAD.
