Default The official fire Mitch Kupchuk thread.

Sorry but this guy isn't getting the job done. Needs to go and maybe we can bring in someone that knows how to get Kobe some real help. Kupchuk could have gotten Kidd if he didn't try to lowball Thorn. I don't know if Kidd would have helped the Lakers beat the Suns but I'd say the chances of beating the Suns would be greater with Kidd on the Lakers. It's been too long since the Lakers actually were exciting to watch and root for and that is because the best GM ever in the NBA the logo knew how to put together a team. Something Kupchuk clearly doesn't know how to do judging by his moves.

How did he try to low ball Thorn?

The Lakers wern't going to win the championship with or without kid. Not worth giving up Bynum for a 34 year old point guard.

What about Bynum, Odom and this year's 1st for Jermaine O'Neal? Personally I think that's one of a very few trades involving Bynum that I would approve of.

agreed. People that think that Kidd would have propelled us into contention are just wrong. This team needs a lot of work to get to that point.

It's something I didnt want to do, but we are going to have to give up Bynum if we want to win a ring with Kobe.

If he goes, it'll be just another scapegoat. You think Phil and Dr. Buss don't have anything to do with the roster?

I brought this up previous. I think I mentioned this before, I'd be more inclined to trade Bynum for an impact big man rather than an impact backcourt player.

I don't know if the Pacers are all that excited about that package though. It was more or less pure speculation from Marc Stein.

Not to mention Buss' kid Jim. I have read stuff that says that he's calling a lot of the shots and it is basically Kupchak's job to do what he says.

Quote:
The problem? Jerry Buss' son Jim was a driving force behind the drafting of Bynum with the No. 10 pick in the 2005 draft and badly wants to keep his pet project off-limits. If Jackson were to refuse an extension -- or even leave the organization before next season in a worst-case scenario -- this matter figures to be the biggest wedge.

Dr. Buss calls the shots, Mitch isnt going anywhere because he does what he is told.

As long as Phil is around, you have to think he has a lot to say as well.

Jason Kidd would not have helped our interior defense.

Our offense is fine.
