The Lakers needed someone like Jerry West, not Magic Johnson
The Lakers deserve management that can make those high stake calls and come away winning.

No playoffs for LeBron James, No job for Magic Johnson. Why the Lakers fell apart
One of the most storied teams in the league, the Lakers (37-45) have not won a championship in nine years, and Los Angeles is frustrated, hungry and impatient.

Kobe Bryant said last month he wouldn't become Lakers GM
Many fans would prefer to have the void filled by a member of the Lakers family, with Johnson out, there is no greater Laker available than Bryant.
"The answer is no, I'm not doing it", says Bryant.

"Any time I needed help I could just go to him, whether it was on the court or off the court, he was there for me".

Owner. Jeanie Buss must look outside Lakers family to find solutions to fix franchise
When Jeanie Buss hired Magic Johnson as president of basketball operations for the Lakers two years ago, she didn't view it as hiring a former player who had virtually no front-office experience. She was hiring a man she considers her brother. Magic was family.
When Buss hired Rob Pelinka as GM, she didn't see him as a player agent with no fron-office experience. She saw him as the former agent of Kobe Bryant, and Kobe was family.

The Lakers failed to qualify for the playoffs, after signing the one and only LeBron James during the prior summer. Backstabbing season is here, and Magic decided it was his time to bounce.
