Jeanie Buss has proven she sucks too.RoadDawg55 said:
Good points. So he's an idiot, fair enough. I just don't get why Jeanie and Kupcheck receive very little backlash, but lil' Jimmy does. And some of it is because of Jeanie's media manipulation, which is obviously a strength of hers.Gladstone said:

Why is Jimmy Buss the scapegoat? I'm not sure if he even does anything important. Kupcheck makes the decisions on talent.BallSacked said:Lakers won't win again until Kobe hangs it up. Ditto for Little Jimmy Buss.
he also is blamed for not doing more to make phil jackson come back to LA instead of knicks
also nba stats nerds will never let him live down the comments he made about how he felt like scouting wasn't very important
and he's compared to his dad with every move he makes or doesn't make
Hiring D'Antoni was a disaster, but they still weren't winning anything with Phil. They had a broken down Howard and Nash. That team would have been better with Phil, but they would have still gotten stomped by SA, OKC, and probably a couple other teams.
The scouting comments are FS.
The cancelled Chris Paul trade played a huge role in the Lakers being in the position they are now. It led to the disastrous Steve Nash trade, which greatly contributed to D'Antoni being hired. It had a real snowball effect.
