Jeanie is the type to still think the Lakers are the favorites to land KD Kawhi Klay and Kyrie this summer bc it’s “the Lakers!!”
Don’t think reality will set in for her until we strike out on EVERYONE and the clippers land 1 or 2 of those superstars. I think only then will she realize what she has done.

Not gonna lie tho if Pelinka didn’t get any help prior to this conference he did a hell of a job. Shout out to whoever advised prior because he pretty much took that conference knowing he was gonna get grilled.

Basically told Vogel he was plan R lol
I just wanna know, is this the worst of it? Are we done? Dirty laundry dryin, can we go back to work and keep people the **** quiet, please?
Our one chance to get out of all this is acquire real talent and give us real chances to compete. They keep this **** up, we'll have NO chance. Shut your mouths, get to work, and MAYBE you cantrick convince someone to sign on.

NBA players don't give two ****s about Rob Pelinka emailing about magic or Jeanie Buss being advised by Kurt Rambis.. all of this is blown out of proportion.

Magic and Rob were basically brought in to be 2 sides of the same coin. They already knew Magic wasn't gonna be in the office 40 hours a week. He's Magic f'n Johnson, he's a mogul. He doesn't have that time and he told that to Jeanie. That's what Rob was for. Magic was there basically for recruitment. Remember that's what Magic's whole point was when he first took the job. He wanted to get 2 superstars. He never talked like this was a long term job. He always talked like he would be there for 3 years max.
Right. I don't know what Rob was thinking. Magic is the bawse in LA. He got people everywhere.
Didn’t Magic actually say the opposite? They asked him about his outside endeavors interfering and he said this will be his main, sole priority. It was all BS.
lol u been in here talking about every report fake
Legit, some Laker fans are sounding like Trump supporters (obviously sports aren’t close to the importance of running the USA). Every report they disagree with, they call it fake. Every report they like they're like see everything is fine.
Jeanie’s bum self even used the term fake news. What an idiot

Lol are you high? The perception of the dysfunctional front office was why wer kept striking out on free agents before Magic came in, why in the world would you think that WOULDN'T be the case right now?

We struck out on FA's because we didn't have **** on the basketball side of things & no way to improve that going forward. Nobody was trying to team up with Lamarcus Aldridge or Carmelo in FA. From a basketball standpoint we have young players who have proven they at the very least they can be productive NBA players, We now have a top 5 player in the league in Lebron, and we have cap space & flexibility going forward.
Two of the best FA's on the market are being heavily predicted to go to the Knicks... The James Dolan Knicks...
The Clippers saw their biggest success as a team come while they were under the leadership of a KNOWN bigot & Cheap guy in Sterling.
Dan Gilbert basically disrespected Lebron publicly, failed miserably the years he was gone & still put together a team with three All Stars the very second Lebron came back.
If we can make good basketball moves players will follow, as of right now we're in a great space BASKETBALL wise. Our FO has had disputes for awhile Lebron still signed... we were in the midst of the season going bad & AD and his representatives still decided to try & force a trade here..
The status of the FO surely isn't a positive but Rob Pelinka talking **** about Magic behind closed doors isn't gonna make or break our FA.

you living in the matrix. The guy running **** literally has the worst reputation in the league right now and that was BEFORE all this drama with Magic. Wake up G. I guess we'll have to strike out on everybody this summer before you believe.

and Again that same guy was in charge when Lebron signed here... that same guy was in charge when AD demanded a trade here a few months ago.

Magic got Lebron to sign off on coming here, Rob didn't even meet with him last summer. He's gone. And the AD trade didn't exactly go smoothly if he was the one in charge.

I liked what Vogel had to say, it was refreshing.
Hopefully him and Lebron can convince Kawhi or Klay or Kyrie to come here, we draft someone good with the 4th pick and then when we start winning all this **** will be forgotten, hopefully!

This question had me
I mean apparently coaches were turned off by the state of the front office. Why wouldn't players be? And what makes you think they aren't?
