Lakers are one steaming pile of entitlement, hubris, and thirst for power. Magic strolled in thinking he could just Magic his way around in a pretty intense and demanding position. Pelinka had his eyes set on Magic's spot from the jump and wasn't even willing to wait 3 years. Jeanie clearly doesn't know what the hell she is doing but like a true second generation rich kid assumes she does because he father did and doesn't care what "outsiders" think. All these other people (Rambises, Phil, that Harris guy) in addition to Rob know this and are just circling her ass like vultures trying to get their piece. And it all comes back to one thing...it's the Lakers. Jeanie thinks that just being the Lakers is enough (honestly it clearly was for Bron). Everybody else just wants a piece of what remains a legendary brand. And all that said they are still in excellent position going into next season :dead:.

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
Pelinka should be gone too

And the bus family are full of idiots

But I can’t believe people are defending magic in here... dude flat out didn’t do the work and his signings last offseason were among the worst of all time even in an offseason where they got Lebron...

The zizic trade, the Russell trade, etc.

Usually in a story there’s a need for a good guy or at least some kind of protagonist to root for. But there aren’t any good guys in this shyt, everyone has dirt on their hands.

Lavar finessed Magic into picking his son then bushed him before he could trade him away :banderas:
Also, Magic has a habit of favoring players who "remind him of himself".

He does that shyt all the time. Isiah Thomas did the same when he was GM.

I wonder if magic did this as a "fukk you" to the Lakers thinking he could mess up free agency
