Not the same title yes, but the owner I’m sure does have final say in all or most transactions.

Tried to make it a three team trade, but virtually impossible because the Suns are over the second apron. Lakers get a big scorer/rebounder, Bulls tank to keep their top 10 pick-get additional FRP, Suns get something for Nurkic.
AD/Vucevic
Bron/Wood
DFS/Vando/Reddish/Phillips
Christie/Knecht/Bronny
AR/Vincent/Shake
Yes, Magic as part owner (in a whole *** group) of the Dodgers and Commanders clearly doesn't make up for trading Zubac.........when he was angling for cap space to add Kawhi to AD and Bron. (Whom HE brought to the Lakers)
Yes, they're the same thing. It is quite funny.....the lengths we go to protect Jeanie and Rob.

Magic has stated we didn’t draft Tatum because we had Ingram and Nance
Same reason POR didn’t draft Jordan because they had Clyde

Last week you seem to have been confused between the words “contender” and “competitive”… this week you seem to be confused with me pointing out the fallacy in these replace the owner posts as actually defending Jeanie and Rob.
Basically here’s how these interactions go…
You: Man Jeanie and Rob suck, we need to replace them with SpongeBob and Squidward.
Me: You do know Spongebob hasn’t been good since I was a kid.
You: Jeanie loves you
If you can go back and reread all these back and forths, there’s no actual case being made in favor of Jeanie/Rob… it’s pointing out how some of these arguments are.
Has ownership been cheap at times? Absolutely
Are there other owners out there who also cheap? Absolutely
Is Rob a good GM? Probably not.
Would I fire him and hire a dude who’s never put together a team that got past the second round of the playoffs? Probably not.
Bottom line is do better with your silly arguments… or don’t get mad at me if I point out the flawed logic behind them.

Shams: “How do you get back to that model [2019-2020 ]?
I’ve been asking this same question on this thread since 2021-2022.
And the Lakers are barely realizing it.
What an embarrassment it’s taking the Laker organization 3 years to figure this out
Yea, no. I'm not confused at all by you defending Rob and Jeanie this entire time. Stop acting dumb.
Trying to counter logic or whatever for some things is fine, saying Magic wasn't perfect because he traded Zubac, but he pulled LeBron, that's a fair point of info to point out. I'm sure there's more as well.
But you been in here FOR YEARS trying to counter every single detail regarding Jeanie and Rob like we're all crazy for pointing out the mounting evidence of they aren't cutting it. And it's A LOT MORE than Magic trading Zubac.
Are there other owners out there who also cheap? Absolutely..........and who in here is asking to get THOSE OWNERS??????
The Dodgers payroll is approaching 400 million for ONE YEAR. Asking to get that group in play to do the things the Laker brand should be doing is nothing but the right thought process. Doesn't even have to be the Magic group. ANY GROUP that will flex their financial might is who we want, not these penny pinching *****es employing all their God damn "Laker family" friends in Rambis, and Kobe's agent etc. But no, you won't wanna get with that logic, because this one time, Rob quoted the bible, and Jeanie gave you a free t-shirt so they are just fine. Let's keep doin what we're doin blah blah blah.
But now I just realized you're babbling about the wrong stuff anyways, "Would I fire him and hire a dude who's never put together a team that got past the second round of the playoffs????"
What?!?!?!?!?!!?
Do you think Magic is going to sit at Rob's desk?????? He'd be part of the ownership GROUP. He wouldn't be doing contracts and taking phone calls from agents man.
Do you believe he signed Otani??? That he drafted Jayden Daniels? It's an investment group. We aren't asking for Rob to get fired and Magic does his job. We want Magic's Investment group to purchase the team and hire the people that can do the day to day things that are needed. Like they've done in two other sports.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The LA Dodgers ownership group is the level of Spongebob and Squidward?
Did I ask for the Bobcats ownership group? Or the Wizards????
I asked for a multi BILLION dollar ownership group. People that make Jeanie look broke af.
There's rich
There's Rich
There's RICH
and there's RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICH
I want #4. I think multiple people are thinking BIG money, not just big money.
Dodger group. Amazon group. Whatever super rich Soccer groups there are. Bill Gates group. Enormous money group. No more broke boi Laker ownership group.
There's no counter for that. No need for you to argue or well actually me about Jeanie and the Rambii.

Bro level bad...
Yes. That’s exactly the point I was making there…
Your point wasn't good. I'm not asking for another mom and pop shop to purchase the Lakers. Name them whatever you want.
I want multi multi multi multi billionaires to purchase the LA Lakers, and make the world hate their guts, like what the Dodgers are doing.

Dumb xxx organization been wasting AD the last three years
