wasn't magic's first move as an exec trading lou williams for a late 1st? wonder why he's not crowing about that during interviews.
Magic is becoming Donald Trump. He's blameless in everything. It's everyone else. He's looking more and more like a phony every time he does an interview.
“Tragic Johnson” so it’s Jeanie’s fault now because he couldn’t fire Luke, or are we still going with Rob the Backstabber? am I going to have to change my avi?
You just ruined my morning cappuccino with this reminder abeer3. I tried to watch the slippers game last night, but couldn’t because Sweet Lou was killing it, and Zubac looked like Marc Gasol. I mean WTF. I need a championship to make this all go away. No bull-s***.
Uh trading Lou enabled us to tank for the #2 pick and got us the 28th pick from Houston...what’s the problem? ADd that s*** up! Look at how we put up our coaching staff together. That’s how we set up our FO. I love Jeanie, but hire (or try to hire) the best people at their position and get out the way. I’m not saying Magic is the best candidate for a Prez position, but once you decide who is, let them get at it and figure out the bball ops side of the Lakers. Don’t try to Jkidd dude. Get a guy/gal that can pick their crew and allow them to operate. Don’t try to force things...let the queen of dragons be an example to you.
I know the chain reaction, but don’t act like getting the #2 pick was set in stone when the trade was made. We lucked out, like we have for multiple years, including last year. Thanks Adam.
Yeah...exactly! So don’t act like the #4 pick for us and the #1 pick for them wasn’t part of that luck to get AD either. Bottomline: Lou wasn’t going to make us a title contender by himself. But a high lottery pick and and another 1st rounder may net us a difference maker.
point flies by. i never wanted the cap space route, ever. had we just managed our assets, kawhi and PG might have been here with a solid supporting cast instead of across the hall. many of the same exact parts even! anyway, the major point is that magic was a bad executive, and his yammering on isn't changing that fact.
I give him credit for securing Lebron, maybe Lebron does come here regardless but Magic probably helped some. We wouldn’t be here without Lebron. But, we wouldnt be 24-4 if Magic was still in charge.
