Back on Oct. 30, Magic Johnson chewed out Luke Walton for the Lakers' 2-5 start. Magic is a little like that boss we've all had who is around a handful of days a month but swoops in like he knows everything and offers edicts. Magic and GM Rob Pelinka did not hire Walton, he's not their guy, and the buzz around the league for a while has been that the front office would replace Walton with someone a little more old-school/hard-a** if they could (but owner Jeanie Buss stands in the way).
