Can the Lakers win the LeBron James minutes? It’s not as easy as it may sound

James’ All-NBA selection was only the third time in the play-by-play era (since the 1996-97 NBA season) that a player was selected to an All-NBA team despite that player’s team being outscored with that player on the floor in the regular season while also outscoring opponents with that player off the floor.

I know this isn't an example of one of those undeserved all NBA selections Bron stans are always talking about.:picard:

Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi of the Dodgers now have advisory roles with the Lakers according to Ramona

Farhan Zaidi and Andrew Friedman, two key executives with the Los Angeles Dodgers, have begun playing advisory roles with the Los Angeles Lakers as part of the ownership transition from the Buss family to Mark Walter, multiple sources told ESPN.

Zaidi, currently a special adviser to the Dodgers and renowned for his analytics background, is functioning as Walter's representative in helping with the transition, sources close to the situation said.

Friedman, who currently acts as the president of baseball operations with the Dodgers, has played a lesser role. He mostly consults with Lakers president of basketball operations, Rob Pelinka, sources said. Friedman has helped the Dodgers win three of the last six World Series.

Both the Lakers and Dodgers are expected to become part of TWG Sports, the entity Walter created to oversee all his sports holdings. As such, Zaidi and Friedman are acting as senior executives of TWG Sports, which is helping with the Lakers after the sale of the team closed.

Sources said Zaidi has also been consulting with the Los Angeles Sparks. Walter and TWG Sports additionally own the WNBA team.

On Thursday the Lakers terminated several members of their scouting department, including Joey and Jesse Buss, the brothers told ESPN's Shams Charania.

Walter was approved as the new majority owner of the Lakers on Oct. 29. The sale of the team was valued at $10 billion. As part of the deal, Jeanie Buss will remain as the team's governor for at least the next five years.
