about time, the only reason he was hired in the first place was because he has been grooming to be the next Gary Vitti, who i always think not high of anyway.

Thank god.

Magic or no Magic, this IMO was a major weakness. It should be easy to fill this position if they are willing to offer money and conduct and open search...

This is the time for Jeanie to finally bring the Lakers to the 21st century.

We're the Lakers! We need the best trainers, analytics dept, everything.

Relative to the roles they had, Nunez might have been the worst at his job out of everyone else in the ORG.

Glad to see they made one right decision, hopefully this is a sign of things to come

This guy would always stand up during timeouts with his clipboard looking all important. Was he wanting to draw up a play or something?

sadly that would cut into the Buss kid's trust fund cash flow. This will go to the lowest bidder.

He was drawing up his plan of how he wanted each player to have season ending surgery.

Except some of the people closest to her that's advising here from here on are Linda Rambis (wife of Kurt) and Phil Jackson.
