To think, arguably the greatest Laker and FO executive ever, knocked on the door TWICE, and both times Jeannie slammed the door on him. All because he didn't approve of her crush. This girl has some serious trust issues. Feels like there isn't a single adult in the room running this franchise.

Pretty tough crowd responding to her tweet. She may go back into hiding.


The first reply is right on:

"You don’t post or say anything to the public except a damn puppy pic?!"



Yeah, we'd expect her to describe her FA plans in detail.


Yeah, some people on here are as smart as Jeanie! lol


I'm sure they understand if Jeanie doesn't post their FA plans, but they do want some kind of response to all the allegations levied at the FO and its incompetence. The silence regarding these matters are making Laker fans nervous especially when it is not addressed. Now we have hopes of signing a max FA and speculations of incompetence arises again. So it's understandable that people are irritated at her first tweet.



Yep, perfect time just before FA to wash some dirty laundry in public; sounds like
a plan.

She could say something simple that won't hurt the franchise like; "I totally screwed
up the day I took over. Then I hired Magic, Rob, the Rambis, the Phil, etc..
Now I'm asking for you all to support those clowns until after FA has passed so
that we don't affect that process"

Jeanie take note, some fans need you to confess...now.




Airing dirty laundry prior to FA is Jeanie’s specialty

All drama and dysfunction aside, I've never understood fans clamoring for her or Rob to hold a press conference to spill the beans on what is really happening behind the scenes. They are not politicians and don't have to appeal to the masses. Coming out defensive would be losing battle and serves absolutely no benefit except to fuel the flames of all the talking heads and pundits. I prefer them laying low and keeping things quiet until after moves our made, then they can come out and introduce AD and whoever else we add.

I think more for transparency IMO. I don’t like our Politicians or anyone lying to the people is ok. We’re so accustomed to it now a days. I do see your point not owing anyone anything but what’s happening with Magic stepping down and some bad moves they should let us know what’s happening at least for their prospective

Rob did shed a little light during the Vogel press conference, but really what would be the benefit? The only possible benefit would be to win the optics game, and that's not gonna happen with the barrage of pundits and gossip columns trashing us every day. I just don't see getting into a media battle being very fruitful.

He always said he's not interested in returning. People need to let that one go.

I do think we should have made offers at Bob Meyers, Buford, etc though.

It's her team, and her mouth. She has the right to do whatever she wants with both. I don't see the point in being so reactive to everything she does.


No kidding -- & she's right. The Lakers are on the right track and they're not done

You either control the narrative or the media controls it. The Lakers could use John Black right now.

West wanted to come here before he went to the Clippers.

the thin line between criticism/hate. sorry trolls we got bron&AD.

Now maybe they go for a third... not because it's overkill, but because bron is damn old. But you all can hate on that foresight too.

"a third star is too much"
"they traded too much"
"kobe.. ahh forget it.. you wouldn't understand.

if the hate is cuz Jeanie pwnd you, your acquaintances, ruined your schemes or is just an ex-playboy bunny; Maybe kobe ruined most of your nba fandom life... don't worry!!! she's not finished yet, PnG is back and your worst nightmare hasn't even arrived yet.

That's when Kobe gets a piece too


Sorry for the fanboy post all, but 6 years ago when kobe hit those free throws on the verge of tears i never imagined we'd have a duo like this so soon and everyone would pile on the FO the worst when it happened.

(especially not here on LG, but that's just Kudos to everyone for creating such a great laker troll magnet)

Jeanie Buss addresses Lakers Fans:

Quote:
”I have 100 percent confidence in Rob Pelinka running our basketball operations.”

“I’ve always had confidence in Rob. Whatever the speculation is out there, we don’t neee the outside media to validate what we do. I’m very happy. I think we’re on the right path but there’s still more work to do.”

“There will be a lot of changes. Lakers fans, be patient. We’re going to get there. We’re not going to stop until we’re all proud.”

Controlling the narrative does what for us exactly?

Here's the full interview with Jeanie at the NBA Awards. She done good IMO and said the right things.

Among other things... she asked for patience among fans acknowledging that there is work to be done and is being done... said she has full confidence in Rob and we don't need the media to validate the work being done... pointed out that a lot of media speculation is unfounded especially with regard to The Rambii... didn't use the opportunity to take a deserved shot at Magic and chose to be classy.

Have to agree with Daman. I’m not confident and somewhat apprehensive about Buss vs. Ballmer for the next decade or two.

Is there anyone that thinks this is a contest?

I saw the tides starting to shift last season and a lot of people around here called me crazy because "lol they're the clippers". If you removed the owners names and teams and only looked at the actions he's taking, they look very similar to the moves the Lakers under Dr. Buss used to make. Hire smart basketball minds and let them do their jobs. Not to mention his bottomless bank account. My 12 year old nephew and his friends are Clipper fans. They've never known a competitive Laker team. Ballmer is playing it right with the long game. He's cultivating a new generation of fans.
