So, let’s dive into some Lakers talk—especially about this big news that’s been blowing up my timeline. Rob Pelinka, you know the guy? Well, he’s kind of a big deal in Laker Land now. Yeah, they just decided to shake hands on a new deal. Basically, he’s sticking around as the President of Basketball Operations and General Manager. And maybe it was just me, but I swear I could hear a collective eyebrow raise at this news.
Jeanie Buss, bless her heart, seems pretty happy about this. In her own words, she’s been leaning on Rob’s smarts and leadership for eight whole seasons. That’s like an eternity in basketball years, right? Jeanie says she really values his partnership. And hey, if Jeanie says it, who am I to argue? She’s convinced Rob can keep bringing that championship-level magic to the Lakers and their die-hard fans. Makes you wonder, how many late-night strategy sessions have they had over coffee—or maybe something stronger, who knows.
Thinking back, Pelinka jumped on board with the Lakers ship back in 2017, taking on the role of General Manager. Fast forward to 2020, and they tacked on another fancy title—Vice President of Basketball Operations. I always thought those titles were something out of an office politics handbook, but I digress. It seems like he’s climbing that ladder and making himself essential.
Alright, enough of my rambling. If you’re all about the hoops scoop, Inside Hoops has been in the game of covering NBA drama and excitement for over two decades. Not just their blog, but their main site is a treasure trove of hot takes and player stats. Definitely worth a click-around if you’re into that sort of thing. There’s a whole world of basketball chatter out there, and they don’t skimp on the juicy details. Alright, go Lakers and all that!
