Re: Shams: Magic Johnson steps down as Lakers President of Basketball Operations
WOOOOOOOOO FINALLY
Edit: Now the next move is find some legit competent people for the FO. Get Pelinka out of there aswell.
Magic is a legend and this without a miracle would have tainted his legacy.
Lets build a real team with culture and teamspirit at front.
If Lebron doesn't want any part of it he is welcome to leave aswell.

Don't think he did a bad job. The plan was to sign 1-yr deals and sign a max guy this offseason, but Klutch messed that up.
At the end of the day, other stars aren't flocking to play with Lebron.

I mean, after they signed Lebron the position kind of became redundant.

When I read, "Jeanie Buss still has complete faith in Magic Johnson, Rob Relinka to Run Lakers" in the headlines, my first thought was... they're gone. That always happens when a coach gets the vote of confidence.

Re: Shams: Magic Johnson steps down as Lakers President of Basketball Operations
Magic was never committed to the job. Hiring him was a dumb idea.
Lakers should go out and find a modern GM who can build a team around LeBron. Get rid of Pelinka too.
