Tom Dundon is so cheap he’s gonna change the 50-50 raffle to 60-40.

The Tom Dundon jokes are going to keep the lights on here all summer.

“Over a dozen? Those are rookie numbers, you gotta get those numbers up” -TD

Lol wrong billionaire. That’s definitely a Jeanie Buss special right there, not Dundon.

Helps having the Lakers on the resume though!

Nope but it is great on the resume and translatable. Got to sell it to those who don’t care about sports but I wouldn’t be surprised if these people won’t be scooped up quick

Nah the new trend is to downsize, replace them with AI, and then blame the remaining people when it runs like shit.

No he saw how much money the buss’s were taking out of the business and not investing internally. He knew there would be a ground up rebuild of the front office

Even JJ Redick was dumbfounded too at how small the Lakers FO is. Trully was a mom and pop shop under the Buss family.

Not uncommon for family run businesses 

Actually article title,

Source: Lakers lay off over a dozen amid business-side reorg

At least the og ESPN title was ethical. It just won’t drive meant eyeballs.

1.4%?! Get the pitchforks

I wonder if one of the 14 was a source for McMenamin.

Who is losing their mind? This news seems like it’s being taken pretty calmly.

you act like not having an up to date resume when you are fired is a death sentence

literally takes 30 min to update it at any time

New owners means ur job is absolutely not secure

YOU’RRRRREEEEE FIIIIREEDDD

Just start applying for new jobs after a change of power at the top.

I was thinking the same thing

Fuck this is good

Pretty sure she has a title but no real power, like what Cuban is to the Mavericks.

Still a minority owner.

This has nothing to do with the new owners being cheap. You only have to look to see how they run the dodgers, which is considered the best run organizations in all of baseball, and one known to spend money on players and facilities.

Exactly. These people, probably most of which were making less than 6 figures, are all of a sudden out a job. Cold world

The motives are that the team business was run in a very specific way under Tim Harris, it’s why the Lakers/game experience hasn’t changed since the mid 00s. I would bet the ¹⁴⁄₁₀₀₀ people being laid off are Tim’s guys that are very set in that culture.

Mark Walter has shown he is not a penny pincher.

I don’t think the communications and social media team were the problem lol

That’s Crypto Claude AI

Probably bringing in their own guys from their other franchises

Remember Adam Silver started of this with him try to stream games just so people paid more! Can we just not get rid of Silver? He is creepy!

Now they’re doing even better financially cutting all those salaries! /s

Anytime a company re-org happens and departments are cut it’s a layoff. It’s the definition of a layoff.

People now need to worry about feeding their families.

Just the players

Yeah, known cheapskate Mark Walter…

I would do depraved things if it meant we had the people running the Dodgers run the Blazers.

Can always sell feet pics online

Good time to be a cyborg

a sports organization re-hiring staff = the country is dead

You under the impression that European or South American soccer clubs never layoff people with an ownership change?

We’ve been headed here since Reagan, it’s just accelerated recently

Heading? We’re there

Omg bro, you all get your little trendy narratives and just run with them, facts be damned. It’s so lame

calm down bot

This is the end game. Lol

And ban that longshots21 guy while you’re at it.
