Don’t Crush Magic For Firing People

Don’t crush Magic for firing people

in a recent article looking into the dysfunction of the Lakers, Magic Johnson was hit particularly hard for general incompetence and was portrayed as a tyrant around the office.

Colin thinks a lot of the criticism in the article is fair game, but Magic shouldn’t get crushed for firing employees after taking over an organization that had been in a tailspin for 5+ years. The reality is that when a culture needs to be changed, people are going to be fired, and those people are not going to be thrilled about it. There’s plenty to slam Magic for, but this is one instance where he was right. It’s just business.

Guests:

Nick Wright, Metta World Peace, Ric Bucher, and Damon Stoudamire
