That's pretty classless. I don't know what any other coach can do with the cards MDA's been dealt.

I agree. As much as I dislike D'Antoni, you gotta feel for what he's gone through during his tenure here.

I think she probably says things all the time behind closed doors about what she thinks should be done, but gets shut out by her "brilliant" brother. Even though it's not a great move by her, I doubt there would be very many people here complaining if she took over basketball ops.

She never wanted him in the first place, but yeah, this isn't really MDA's fault... That said, he's got to find a way to get Pau fired up again... He's potentially the best player on the court any given night... **** a system and kiss Pau's ass.
If that doesn't work, then we know who's fault it is... Like Dwight.

Horrible just horrible.
I don't get why people just can't accept the fact that we suck.

See now that's a better idea. Instead of bitching about D'antoni on Twitter, go out there and show off the goods every night to distract the other team so we can go undefeated from here on out.

Maybe since we're going to have a bad/off year, she wants to keep the Lakers brand firmly in the media, and talked about. No such thing as bad publicity.

You're right it's probably Phil!

Two thoughts on this:
1. Damn the second time she's shown a family betrayal openly by being vocal. (that makes me sad) but...
2. Hmmm what if she got her way and Jeanie got Queened.
-Pringles gone (actually i'm growing to like and sympathize with him these days. Don't think his system or his rotations are solid enough to win)
-who is up? Kurt for a second maybe Byron(don't see championship there). As I recall the coaching market sucks, both Van Gundy's are meh with uninteresting b-ball to watch, Sloan I actually like and yet he's 101 years old and free agents.... hows the stability lookin? Phil?- I do loooove the idea of Phil taking the Tex Winters role, but lets be honest with the building process these days... does Phil really go down the long hard road? Doubt it. Byron??? idk
Long term? Jeanie would bring in the kind of help Jim needs. Magic, Jeanie, Phil... the last hope? idk, but this is interesting and also very scary, but sometimes history favors the bold... or you end up steinbrennering a soap opera that was a greek comedy/tragedy.

Anyway, she just needs to say that she got a little emotional over the bad loss, and did something in the heat of the moment. Problem solved.
