Respect! Well-earned Jeannie. Dr. Buss and Kobe would have been beyond proud |

I was a bit sour on the FO after the coup (only because I think Mitch deserved better than he got) and things looked kinda rocky for awhile. But gotta give credit where credit id due. _________________ *sighs*

Thank you, Jeanie! I've been critical of how the organization has been run, but you endured through some real lows and guided the Lakers to a championship! You have earned this. Congratulations! |

I have not liked the way the Laker FO/ownership has been running things over the past 5 years or so, but we won. Shows how much I know. Congrats to Jeannie and hope this is the beginning of a long period of continuity. Hope we continue to build out a really good, modern FO. |

Firing Jim Buss was the best decision ever. That clown had no business running the Lakers. Congrats, Jeanie. Well deserved. |

She was getting brunt of the criticism (Kurt as well) at the time — they were referred to as the Rambii when things appeared to not go so well. Remember when that other team across the hallway had been touted as the so-called superior FO?
Lue had turned down the Lakers, Logo joined that other team as a consultant, #2 and PG13 were signed — that led to a lot of unhappy fans who got out the pitchforks. Some redditors even protested at Staples (lol). What a difference a year makes. Jeannie, Rob, and the Lakers are back on top. |

We all remember those years. The bickering and screaming by some that Jeanie wasn’t fit and that the Lakers should have been sold.
Folks stuck up for her, and she made the right personnel and business moves.
Thank you Jeanie Buss! You are amazing! |

I like to call her, the mamba owner of sports.
Dethroned her brother and a 20 year executive GM (who had made some brilliant moves) to get the job done. Kobe told her, if you want to get this done, you can not be afraid to cleanhouse and make changes. She did that, and it was needed. Her being a woman, I honestly believe, when people show support for Ballmer, it made me sick to my stomach. He is a clown, how he behaves. He may be a great businessman, but he is new to this. Jeanie has been doing this, been brought along by her dad, for decades. This is all she knows.
Congrats Jeanie. |

Was not a fan of either her or Jimbo, but she proven that she's not in the same category as her brother. A job well-done, Jeanie. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

I was a bit surprised Lebron complimented Linda Rambis by name during a recent interview. Props to her. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

She deserves more credit
Firing Jimbo
Bring in Magic and Rob
Working with Klutch behind the scenes to make sure the :LBJ plan will work.
After the Magic Embarrassment, doesn't lose the focus and holds on to Rob (who assembled a LBJ type team)
Doesn't sell the team given the pressure
Supports her players and stars.
Allow the team to lift the trophy.
Love Jeannie _________________ Darvin |
