Buss bristled when asked about the influence of her inner circle, but such questions are fair considering the team’s recent struggles.
as the Lakers’ vice president of basketball operations and general manager following the most frustrating season in franchise history. Formerly Kobe Bryant’s agent before he was hired as the Lakers’ GM in 2017, Pelinka is among the people who Buss has said she trusts most.
Watch the fifth episode of the Hulu series, “Legacy: The True Story of the L.A. Lakers,” and you’ll hear her recount when former NBA commissioner David Stern assumed, back when the WNBA was forming, that she, the woman in the family business, would run the Sparks. Watch and you’ll also hear her describe an incident shortly after she was promoted to alternative governor of the Lakers in 1995. It was a huge moment in her career, but as Cuban says in the documentary, the older generation of owners “didn’t take kindly to women in the boardroom.”
Awful. The stuff you internalize and carry with you would become a veneer over all the proceedings involved in her high-pressure, high-stakes work as the governor of the Lakers. So Buss fired Coach Frank Vogel, canning the coach who, with COVID-19 raging in 2020, led L.A. to its 17th championship and did it in the challenging confines of the NBA’s bubble. Because after 2021-22’s stinker of a season, that title felt like a long, long time ago.
On paper, this offseason’s improvements appear marginal, stirring only cautious optimism, at best, among an agitated fan base.
