Yay Sports! Moderately Messy Magic Johnson Airs Out Loose-Lipped Lakers’ GM Rob Pelinka On ESPN ‘First Take’

Source: Gary Coronado / Getty Magic Johnson Exposes Betrayal That Made Him Quit Lakers Job If you’re reading this story on BOSSIP we’re going to assume you’ve seen New Jack City where Nino Brown takes the stand and lie-snitches on “the lightskinned brotha from Uptown” as the “real” head of his CMB criminal cabal. Magic Johnson called out Rob Pelinka the way Nino Brown called out Kareem Akar pic.twitter.com/C7crHiRuLW — Lemories_Coupe (@LemoriesI) May 20, 2019 Today, Magic Johnson performed his own version of that classic scene. As you know, the Lakers legend made an abrupt exit from his gig last month and this morning he sat down with Stephen A. Smith, Max Kellerman, and Molly Qerim on ESPN’s First Take to air out ALL the dirtiest laundry. Oh, but there was MUCH more. Magic also addressed LeBron James’ reaction to his sudden departure. Magic ultimately still loves the Lakers and wants to own the team one day. We never expected Magic to put people on blast like this, but we get it. Sounds like the Lakers have a LOT of cleaning up to do before they get back to their Championship legacy. The reactions to Magic’s explosive interview are hilarious. Flip the page for a great laugh.

According to reports, negotiations between the former Cavaliers head coach and the Lakers fell through. League sources told ESPN contract negotiations between the Lakers and Lue ended with the parties not reaching an agreement at all. Per ESPN : Lue and his representatives turned down the Lakers’ offer Tuesday, league sources said. The Lakers, then on Wednesday offered Lue a deal in the range of three years and $18 million, after which Lue’s side pulled out of negotiations. According to the sources, Lue’s camp was seeking a five-year deal with a salary commensurate with a championship résumé. Beyond an inability to agree on contractual terms, the Lakers had proposed several scenarios involving their preferred candidates for assistant coaches, including Jason Kidd, sources said. Looks like Laker fans will have to wait a little bit longer for the return of the Showtime era . The dysfunction is on ten in the Los Angeles Lakers organization. On top of not being able to secure the deal with Ty Lue, Stephen A. Smith is reporting that people close to Lakers’ president Jeanie Buss are telling her to trade LeBron James.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Remains Of 63 Infants Found At Detroit Funeral Home

Pascal Deloche/Getty Images 63 Infant Remains Found At Detroit Funeral Home A horrifying story is coming out of Detroit where authorities made TWO shocking discoveries about local funeral homes. The remains of over 60 infants were found at the city’s Perry Funeral Home reports WXYZ Detroit . This comes a week after 11 infant bodies were found hidden in the ceiling of a different Detroit funeral home, Cantrell Funeral Home. The outlet reports that officers found 36 fetuses in cardboard boxes and 27 more in freezers. The conditions of the fetuses are unknown. Perry Funeral Home has been shut down by the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA). Their violations include; Three unrefrigerated boxes containing the remains of a total of approximately 36 deceased bodies of fetuses or infants plus a deep freezer containing an unknown number of additional deceased bodies. Some of the deceased had dates of death in 2015. Respondents failed to certify and file death certificates for the dead bodies of the fetuses and infants for whom they assumed custody with the appropriate governmental authority within 72 hours of death. The funeral home owner has since spoken out and they’re denying any wrongdoing. According to the owner who released a statement via a lawyer to WXYZ, the funeral home operated within compliance. “A funeral home cannot bury remains without proper authorization and the law in Michigan sets forth a hierarchy for authority. Perry relied upon and operated within that hierarchy…” How crazy is this story? Our hearts go out to the parents of these infants who thought their lost loved ones were being handled with dignity and respect.

Baron Davis Takes On The Breakfast Club The latest guest to visit The Breakfast Club studio is two-time NBA All-Star Baron Davis . He stopped by to discuss his latest endeavor, the Black Santa movement (as evidenced by his sweater). He also gives his thoughts on rookie Lonzo Ball, an he doesn’t necessarily agree with the people who think he’s not performing up to the standards that everyone expected. He says about the new Laker, “[He’s] playing great for a rookie playing for the Lakers with this much attention and pressure. He handles it all well. I think he’s going to be great. It’s just a matter of putting the right pieces [around him]. He’s the type of player – if you put the right pieces around him, potent scorers and people who can actually dominate the game, then he’s the guy who’s going to make all the right decisions.”
