Magic Johnson has owner Jeanie Buss' full vote of confidence, that much is clear. Speaking on the Rich Eisen show this afternoon, the majority exposed the pathetic fallacy of her fanbase, discrediting the move to acquire LeBron James as unbecoming of the storied franchise. Lakers' murals with LeBron James' superimposed image have been defaced, on two occasion. Though the segment of the Lakers' fanbase that disapproves of the LeBron James signing is small and unkempt, Jeanie still felt the expunge the sentiment. Her decree: “I think that any Laker fan… they’re not Laker fans if they’re not happy about LeBron joining the team,” Buss said.
The fringe segment Jeanie Buss is excoriating are stuck on this notion that no ball player is bigger than the Lakers' brand. The sentiment doesn't allow LeBron to demonstrate first hand, how grateful he is of the opportunity. Jeanie Buss for one, doesn't believe LeBron will revert to "manual control" of the franchise by making incessant demands like he did in Cleveland.
Quite the contrary, Buss believes LeBron will be a dream fit in the purple and gold. "I think Los Angeles is going to be very proud of the way that LeBron will represent the Lakers and they’re going to fall in love with him too," she said in closing.
