On March 11, Beijing time, the US media crowdpoints released a list of power in the Lakers according to recent reports. On this list, as the owner of the Lakers, Jenny Bass is rightfully at the top of the list, while LeBron James, who is often ridiculed as "Manager Jen", is only in fifth place.
The specific rankings are as follows: 1. Jenny Bass, 2. Rambis, 3. Pelinka, 4. Rich Paul, 5. James, 6. Joey and Jesse Bath, 7. Tim Harris, 8." Magician "Johnson, 9." Zen Master "Jackson," 10. Thick eyebrows.
After Jenny Bath, the most vocal in the Lakers is the Lambis. Linda has been Jenny's girlfriend for more than 40 years, and the two have had a deep relationship since 70 years of the last century. In 1985, Linda married Cott Lambis, who was a key role player for the Lakers, and was Phil Jackson's right-hand man and rank when the Lakers won titles in 2009 and 2010. It is reported that Linda and Cote's responsibilities are not transparent, and they have been labeled as "shadow presidents".
Pelinka's power is in third place because he is Kobe's best friend and agent, and the Lakers boss trusts him very much. Although he was running in the wrong direction after the team won the championship, Jenny's confidence in him did not weaken.
Rich Paul is one of the NBA's most influential agents, and his power within the Lakers isn't small. Over the past 4 years, the Lakers have hired 11 Klutch Sports clients, including Thick Brow and Horton Tucker, who signed up to 2023.
The Lakers paid a lot for James, in exchange for thick eyebrows and Wei Shao, and finally got the return of the 17th crown, but he is 37 years old after all, and the contract is only one year left, the Lakers' management must calmly assess the possibility of James leaving, and he is not an absolutely indelible part of the Lakers' power structure.
Unlike Big Brother Jim, who was fired by Jenny, Joey, 37, and Jesse, 34, have performed well in the Lakers' respective fields, and they are the future of Lakers executives. Tim Harris is the COO and President of Commercial Operations and is one of the trusted executives in Jenny's circle.
Although The Magician and Jackson are no longer in the upper echelons of the Lakers, considering their close relationship with Jenny, they will still have a big impact on the Lakers' decision-making. Jenny treats the magician as an older brother, and Jackson has been in a relationship with whom she has been lover for many years.
As for Thick Brow, ideally he is James's successor, but he needs to be healthy enough to take on this role, and in the future, if he wants, he will play an indispensable role in the Lakers' personnel decision-making, and now his influence is certainly not as good as James.
