    Domonique Foxworth is such a moron. What Magic did was give no notice to his employer he was quitting. This damages the Laker brand as the team now looks dysfunctional and weak. Dr. Buss gave this clown everything and he disrespects his daughter like that? It’s a disgrace and he’s defiantly burnt a bridge.

    Magic is PATHETIC as a GM and as a pathetic as a MAN.
    If he had been a football coach in Europe, he would’ve gotten smothered with excrement after this pathetic showing. What a professional does is: Owing up to his failures and apolozing for sucking.

    I usually dont agree with Will Cain but he’s right about this. Most people want Magic to like them and therefore not willing to be honest about the assessment of the situation. Magic shouldve done better. And im glad Will didnt back down when they tried to twist his words.

    This is such a planned event. Jeannie knew everything, he was forced to do this.

    Poor Will Cain with these 2 idiots 😀

    He set the lakers better up than he left it? Thats arguable.

    An older Lebron is a 3 year rental. If free agency does not pan out this is going to get worse the next 3 years.

    Julius randle is a stud. Zubac was promising.

    Signing lebron may have set the franchise back more years if he doesnt win it all the next two seasons.

    I’m so glad that these two articulate and obviously intelligent men stood up to Will Cain and his ridiculous ranting.

    ESPN has too many Laker fans working there, they all grew up with Magic as their hero lol.

    Magic is my favorite player but he looks bad, stop putting the Magic as a player as an excuse, he looked really bad, we’re talking about Magic as an operation manager, he has looked bad before when you separate the player and the the other projects he has done

    I knew this chump was going to “step down”. Knew the lakers was a dumpster fire and he got out real quick??

    He’s got half a billion he doesn’t need the aggravation. As a lot of people have said they should hire a young , hungry executive.

    will cain is saying that the way Magic went about quitting made him look weak in this particular moment. not that this washes away his entire amazing life. just that in this point in time he happened to take an L.

    hollins argument is basically just “awwww you a hater”
    get this idiot off the camera…

    Ryan Hollins and Dominique Foxworth make Max Kellerman actually look competent.

    I guess you mofos have never quit a job.
