After those emails and the group photo with her holding a dog I likened her to a cougar aged Paris Hilton.

For sure when Jim Buss was here and she was sabotaging the team. |

You're right. Even if it's for brief moments, she does have moments of success which Jeannie doesn't; unless you count the Lebron signing.
Even the sibling in-fighting is Cersei-esque. Is Jim her Tyrion?  |

Na Jesse is Tyrion. Controlling things behind the scenes until she took his power. |

nobody here knows anything about Jeanie. whatever you think she is doing, or decisions she is making, how would anyone know? you guys have to eventually admit that there is no public information about these things so to assume this or that and call for the heads of owner management etc is unreasonable to me.
all we know is maybe some reliable journalism from sources that may have first hand knowledge. but unlikely. what's more truthful is the play we see from lebron, its all right there on tv. so if he is so good, why does he play the way he does? cuz he's old? cuz he doesn't have good teammates? stop blaming jeanie or others for this. its right there on the screen you can see it. |

sure, i made an assumption...
i was assuming that spash's complaint about shooters is somehow tied to our majore shooting struggles today. excuse me for such a imporbable assumption. and btw, i already addressed the non-lbj explanation before digging into lbj. im obsessed with lots of things the typical person isnt, so sue me. i am obsessed with basketball, who is good, who is not, etc. i read and watch and study an unhealthy amount. is this a surprise? to anyone?

also, its not obsession really. lbj is the heart of the team. he is the primary ballhandler, like magic and kobe. meaning, he brings the ball up and makes the important decisions. the first place to look for performance problems is the primary guy. he initiates 90% of what the team does on offense. |

The dedication to hating LeBron is impressive but I'm not sure what it has to do with Jeanie  |
