The other day before that Denver game 7, Magic was like, "If the Lakers don't win this game, Mike Brown is gonna be fired...he's gonna be outta there."

Chris Broussard realizing what Magic had just dropped was like :krs: "Wait a minute, Earvin....so ur saying if the Lakers dont win, you think Mike Brown is gone?"

Magic: "Absolutely....Mitch Kupchak has got to make a decision if the Lakers dont win this game.

--

My problem with this is, doesnt Magic still own part of the team? The fact that he owns a piece of the team, however small, and that he's Magic Johnson, more than likely he has input in that decision. But he tried to put it all on Mitch Kupchak like he himself didn't have anything to do with the situation.

I just thought it was poor to use that TV platform to make such a statement when you're in the position he is in. If Broussard or Wilbon said it, it would be different.

Yeah I remember he sold it in 2010, but I think he's a minority owner now.

But maybe that's apart of that VP title.

Either way....that comment was in poor taste. But Magic has been on some other shyt all this year it seems with his bias analysis

Yeah, it's crazy how quick he was to call for Mike Brown's job.

Anyway, Magic analyzing anything Lakers is always an exercise in bias. There's just no way he can be objective. He can't help himself. He has to have some kind of say.

:what:

Fukk Mike Brown. He's in over his head anyway and should of never been hired in the first place.

Magic is just sayin what he feels.

He would fire his Mr. Potato Head lookin ass with the quickness if he could and he knows he needs to go..

I think the comment was too soon, but Brown is well on his way out the building.

not Brown's fault Kobe choked

Actually in a way it is. I blame Kobe, but I knew something to that effect would happen. Mike Brown is too much of a bytch to rest Kobe the amount of time he needs to rest him for him to be effective down the stretch.

He panicked lastnight, when he should have been gettin in Pau's ass to be aggressive out there when he was the best player on the floor. Mike isn't getting shyt out of Sessions and I blame him for that. He's not running sets where the kid can attack the basket to finish or dish. That's basically his only strength. Got Sessions sitting on the perimeter like he's a spot up shooter.

But I watched this team all year and this idiot ran Kobe into the ground. Coaches like Phil, Pop, or Doc have balls and would never do no shyt like that, which overall hurts the team.

Guess what, if he over plays Kobe again: Kobe will be gassed, turn the ball over, or come up short on jumpers.

Didn't Phil Jackson lose with the exact same team last year, what make you think someone else could do better with em?

It seems like MB always gets stuck with shyt rosters (all those cavs squads) or has bytch ass people on the squad ( Bynum, lebron, pau)
