Rob Pelinka

Voici, voici les cinq gutsy moves que, OK, les Lakers doivent faire.

Number one: fire Rob Pelinka.

OK ? Fire Rob Pelinka.

I will say it here.

Je vais le dire en français et je vais le dire en anglais.

Rob Pelinka, je suis sûr, quand il a vu LeBron gagner sa quatrième bague dans l'uni-dans l'uniforme des Lakers, il s'est dit : « Nah, je peux pas laisser ce gars-là gagner final MVP [bip] Go get me Masai Ujiri.

Rob Pelinka, I am convinced, is doing some decision because as-- when he saw LeBron James win his fourth ring on the Lakers, he was like: « Nah, I can't let LeBron tie Kobe in rings and in finals MVP in the Lakers uniform, in the Lakers building, in the Staples Arena, in the Crypto Arena, whatever.

» So Rob need to go.

Je vais le redire quand on va aller dans le studio aussi, OK, dans un des vidéos.

Je suis maintenant convaincu que Rob Pelinka, après qu'il ait vu LeBron James gagner la quatrième bague dans, dans l'uniforme des Lakers, voulait pas que LeBron James catch up Kobe Bryant dans l'uniforme des Lakers.

Rob Pelinka, tu sais, il est soit extrêmement incompétent, soit aucun des autres GM veut dealer avec lui parce que quand il était un agent, il les a fait chier.

Which I doubt because business is business.

Soit il voulait vraiment pas que LeBron gagne.

LeBron était bon, AD était-- comme honnêtement, on avait juste running back and running back.

Même avec D12 là, c'est Dwight Howard.

Mais tu vois, tu vois, ça, c'est une des raisons pour laquelle j'ai dit, je pense fondamentalement que Rob Pelinka voulait pas que LeBron gagne.

And so that, at least that part of it, could be great if you went out and got him with some of your available seconds, but I don't think, I'm not sure if Chicago is willing to deal him at this point in time, especially with the injury to Nick Claxton.

So how soon do you think Rob Pelinka can go ahead and solve this issue? Do we have to wait until December 15th or January 15th when the days come up as far as all those ineligible players become eligible because they signed contracts in the offseason? Let me know your thoughts on what do you think Rob Palenka should do? Who do you think they should go after? I know Yves Missy has been talked about, but he got injured.

I know that there are other players out there, centers that are out there that are playing for teams that would be nice that the Lakers could go for.

But the center position is... at a very much of a premium right now because of the limited supply of centers, big guys that you have.

You can be a great player.

There's only one LeBron, but then you can be Steve Kerr and be a great, you know, role player and then become a great manager or become, or Pelinka, be a great, you know, general, man, president of operations.

You're still in the game.

Yeah, you're still in the game.

And clearly, I don't...

You know, I'm not saying he was making trade calls this summer, but clearly his opinion on how a roster should be built around him was part of the calculus on why Rob Pelinka did what he did.

Um, and I believe Luka knows what he likes.

And, and, and so I think this mix is gonna work, but again, I, like everybody else I've heard, would, would think their upside is a little capped.

Well, well, it, it puts pressure on Cam Carr and Adu Thiero.

What, who it really puts pressure on is Rob Pelinka.

That's the guy that's truly under pressure because-

Well, it's, it, but, but before he makes another pick in the year 2093.

Like, but he's-

I, I, I don't...

Well, let's talk, we'll talk about this next because I think I, I, of all the things that I think will influence whether or not the new regime, once it finally arrives, keeps Rob Pelinka, I wonder if we see this on the same level.

So we'll get to it next.
