Jeanie Buss denies subtweeting LeBron James, says Lakers will be 'competitive' | NBA | UNDISPUTED

In four seasons with LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers have only made the playoffs twice. LA hasn’t won a title in over two years since winning it all in the Bubble back in 2020. Lakers owner Jeanie Buss shared her thoughts for the upcoming season during a Q and A session and she fully expects the team to be “competitive.” Buss also said she never intended to shade LeBron James when she sent out a tweet detailing how much she misses Lakers legend, Kobe Bryant. Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe react to Buss’ comments.

Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED

Shannon you have made me love this show. You continue to make me not miss a show.

Jeanie is letting her personal relationship that she had with Phil Jackson get in the way of the team success

[phatch]

Jeanie is the prime example of putting emotions into business, this exactly why the lakers were trash before lebron got there & no-one wanted to play there.

[femlin]

I listened to a podcast Jeanie was on during LeBron's first season. The host asked her how often they (J & LBJ) speak and she kindly said LBJ doesn't talk to her., which isn't surprising. I was surprised sports media never picked that up.

Unc Shay shooting his shot with Jeanie and I don't blame him 😂

[TheMrMasterChief]

I still feel like I'm grieving the loss of Kobe and I didn't even know him so I'm not gonna blame Jeanie for still grieving

[JohnDVasquez]

What did Kurt/Linda Rambis ever do to deserve opinions on basketball operations?!?! 😂😂😂

[RandallWI]

If the NBA had a " hard knocks" type show like the NFL, the Lakers would be the first one's on it . Seriously man this squad is known more for their off the court drama behind close doors now for the past two, going on three years, then being an successful basketball team on it 🙄. It's actually crazy how much this team gets talked about when they have been terrible in back-to-back seasons 😴

[jojofrancisco]

Since lebron joined the lakers it’s been like a live tv drama show for three years straight

[luckyhands]

Damn Shannon couldn’t even keep a straight face At 11:44 he knows Russ isn’t a good fit anywhere lmao

[BuGGyDaB]

The Lakers are “competitive drama queens”

[leetraviusmckay]

Jeanie wouldn't let Magic run things but she's listening to Phil (I can't build a roster in NYC) Jackson

[austinclark]

Do segments on Giannis and Jimmy Butler instead of rehashing Lebron for the zillionth time.

[RITAS]

Thank you Shannon- LeBron is not the type to be buddy buddy with Jeannie or anyone else Skip, he has his own circle of friends. I love this about him.

[barringtonmorris]

We don't know what goes on behind close doors. Mr. Buss probably did ask a lot of advisors about what to do next.

[joshuaaguirre]

Lebron is a mercenary. A private contractor. A hired gun. The lakers payed him to get them to a finals. He did that and won a title. He will never be a Lakers Soldier like Kobe. This is not complicated.

[daharos]

This is so stupid... because LBJ is not the Lakers... They had 16 rings without him, and they will get more rings after he leaves. No player deserves to hold sway over a team, especially one of the premier flagship teams of the league. LeBron's just one of many all time greats that's just passing through.

[nicstone]

The boss always takes information from all in their inner circle but the final decision is made by the boss sometimes the boss ask questions to see if anyone in the circle is seeing what the boss see in a situation if the leader is not taking in information then that person is not a good boss

[beccck]

Why is Jeanie buss’s skin purple in the thumbnail😂

[leetraviusmckay]

I mean if it wasn't for LeBron joining the Lakers in the summer of 2018 they wouldn't even have a championship
