PostPosted: Mon Mar 04, 2019 9:43 pm    Post subject: News: Magic Steps Down

I think he’s more interested in building his celebrity status and doing publicity than actually fixing the team. He is the worst mistake Jeanie Buss has made. I mean what kind of moron says no to Jerry West when he asks to come back. Magic Johnson that’s who.

His ego is way too big for this team he is not knowledgeable enough nor smart enough to run a basketball franchise and he simply needs to take a hike. Thank you magic for the 5 championships but please leave the lakers and we should pray to get Jerry West back in purple n gold because watching lakers lose to the clippers piss me the (bleep) off.

The Magic Show only lasted three months... where are the network executives when you need them?

Jeanie isn’t gonna fire Magic, if someone in the FO gets fired it’s gonna be Pelinka.

Fire Jeanie, axe Magic, vaporize Rob, and ship Luke to Siberia. Give the team to Jesse Buss and let him bring in someone with a brain to run the team's operations.

Jesse is fine where he is. He's good at analysing college students...but GMs? This team needs a non nepotistic hire in a position of power.

I remember when someone here said Magic wasn't smart enough to tamper properly.

>Tampering charges this season...

Yikes

It starts at the top. Get rid of everything, from Jeanie on down. This is an embarrassment. This team was constructed horribly. It’s coached horribly, it’s run horribly. One year later with the addition of Lebron James and were worse. The only thing I hope now is if we luck into the first pick but Magic will just trade Zion for some magic beans

MadTV would make fun of Magic for how stupid he is... Im sure whoever was a part of the LA scene back then knew that Magic was all smiles

You can't coach Lebron. He has never played in a system and never will. The way you win with Lebron is get a closer for him and 3 & D players. That's why Davis won't work. Lebron sucks with bigs. It's Kawhi or bust. Maybe Kyrie if he actually decides to take basketball seriously.

I think Jeanie wants to win. Her heart is in the right place unfortunately she can not control people like how her father can. But magic can and That’s why she is letting magic go full moron on this team

Coaching plays a part for sure but take Lebron out and this squad is probably one of the worst in the league.

I think you might be right. Unfortunately for us, PG would've fit the bill nicely.
