Surely the ex player who doesn't believe in analytics will lead them to the promise land

Remember when everyone was like Jeanie Buss is really smart and needs to be in charge?

Lol.

Kupchak been with Lakers since 1981 without any interruptions I believe. To axe him midseason is pretty dirty.

Are we sure Magic is the new GM and not President? I would think they are still in play to hire a GM.

If so it's probably a good move for them.

Magic is taking Jim Buss's position meaning he has the last word on anything involving the basketball side of things no matter who the GM is.

He's their Phil Jackson.

Ffs, they just fired one of those in the offseason.

Still, getting rid of Jim Buss on the basketball side is a win no matter who they replace him with. It's like if the Knicks could somehow free themselves from Dolan.

Speaking of which, Byron Scott was on the Jump yesterday saying the Pelicans will be the 6/7 seed this year.

They are 9 games back with 25 to go.

Bulls should probably hang onto Rondo, then flip him to the lakers for DAR

Any legit source/details for Melo to Boston rumblings?

Like they have so many assets it seems near impossible for the Knicks to lose here, but I have the utmost confidence they will find a way if a deal does get done.
