Now? Magic quits in public, saying he's too scared to tell Jeanie Buss face-to-face. What an embarrassing episode for a historic franchise.

Since taking over as president of the Lakers, Magic Johnson never fully committed to the job. Often he was traveling and away from the team. His office hours were limited. He didn't do a lot of scouting. Running an NBA team takes a tremendous commitment of time and energy.


Magic admitted as much in his press conference that this was the case.

That fake news line from Sloan would've gotten Jim Buss killed.

This makes no sense. I was literally VERY open on my take that what happened at the trade deadline was the single most embarrassing moment in the history of the entire franchise

This is honestly great for the Lakers. Magic was in over his head. LeBron was going there anyways. Had nothing to do with Magic.

Fire Luke and hire someone who can actually scout players to replace magic and they should be good next year. IF they get some kind of good free agent signing.

Prob gonna end up with Kemba and strike out everywhere else .
