Lakers Rumors: Magic wants to make the big decisions
In the most recent Lakers rumors, Magic Johnson wants to make the decisions.
For these Lakers rumors in other words he wants to call the shots. This comes shortly after he was hired for a front office advisory role.
Jim and Jeanie Buss are siblings and both co-owners of the Lakers. The decision to hire Magic was Jeanies idea. Both siblings haven’t always seen eye to eye. Johnson was hired to advise ownership, which includes help them in their decision making for the future.
There have been rumors if Jim Buss wills step down. There has also been reports that Buss scheduled to meet Magic about the future of the franchise.
Magic was once the face of the Lakers organization as player. In previous reports he said he respects Jim Buss and the decisions he made. Now Magic wants to call the shots.
Their meeting they are having will be during the All-Star break. In the meeting they will discuss whats next for the Lakers. They are most likely also going to discuss why or why not it is a smart idea for Magic Johnson to start calling the shots for LA.
Magic just like the team and the fans want to bring the organization back to its winning ways. its glory days. Many fans agree to let the young core of the Lakers develop and learn.
Many fans agree that the Lakers are only one season away from competing in the West.
I think allowing Magic to call the shots may be the best idea for the organization right now. There is no one saying do this for this reason. They need someone who in Magic isn’t afraid to speak their mind.
If staff in the front office are afraid to speak their mind how is this franchise going to get back to its winning ways?
