Re: Lakers Próxima Temporada (Magic Johnson is back!)

The Los Angeles Lakers recently announced the return of Magic Johnson to the organization as an advisor to owner Jeannie Buss. And in an interview with USA Today, Magic said he hopes his role will be a critical one:
Magic Johnson said he wants to “call the shots’’ for the Los Angeles Lakers, a week after it was announced he has rejoined the team as an adviser to owner Jeanie Buss.
“Working to call the shots, because it only works that way,’’ Johnson told USA TODAY Sports when asked what he hopes his role with the franchise will be. “Right now I’m advising. I get that. But at the end of the day, then we all got to come together and somebody’s got to say, ‘I’m making the final call,’ all right? And who’s that going to be?
“So, we’ll see what happens.’’
Johnson, the former Lakers great, said the decision about his role rests with Jeanie Buss, whose brother Jim has been in charge of the franchise since their father, Jerry, died in 2013. During the 2013-14 season, Jim Buss said he would step down after three to four years if the franchise was not yet competing for NBA titles again.
The Lakers, winners of 16 NBA championships, are 18-37 this season and a combined 65-181 during the three previous seasons.
“Look, Jim knows where we are, Jeanie knows where we are, as a franchise, and so some decisions have to be made,’’ Johnson said, adding that he thinks his role will be determined by the end of the season. “I may only be in this role for a short term, I may be here for a long time. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens. I can’t tell you that right now.’’
Rapaz, quero muito ver a offseason da franquia.
Jim Buss já era, mas ninguém vai falar sobre isso agora.
Só quero ver se sabendo disso, ele vai tentar alguma loucura até a deadline(espero que não)...
E outra coisa: acho que o Magic quer ter o mesmo cargo que o P-Jax tem no Knicks.
Se ele quiser comandar tudo com mão de ferro, vai dar merda. Agora, se ele der liberdade para o GM(que pode ser outro no lugar do Kupchak), aí sim pode servir.

Lagoa escreveu:Wade está VOANDO....tanto na defesa como no ataque. Heat fez um trabalho excelente de polpar Wade para os playoffs esse ano....ele chegou inteirinho. Eu acho que vai ser muito pau a pau, mas acho que Parker e Manu vão sofrer DEMAIS no perímetro.
E não acho que Boris será problema para o Miami, porque tem muito bom marcador (melhores do que do OKC) para marcar essa posição no garrafão do Spurs....vai ser Duncan contra a rapa.
