    Wow thats messed up

    They basically used Dantoni and after people clamored for a new coach, now they're doing it again. Be careful what you ask for Lakers

    Really, dude. Was that necessary, Magic? Could you be a little more diplomatic?

    No wonder people don't want their mistresses to be seen in public with this guy.

    He is right though.

    If you are a Lakers fan, you have to be ecstatic about this.

    I am not a Lakers fan, and I am disappointed by him leaving.

    Because D'antoni sucks. Still not really an excuse for Magic to tweet something like that though

    Pringles has rubbed many people the wrong way over the years... Likely was an ass to Magic.

    Didnt DH want him gone if he were to stay in LA?
    Now DH is gone and so is their coach.
    I hope they don't air any of these D-league lakers games on prime time next season.
