Magic Johnson says he’ll resign if the Lakers fail to turn things around after next summer.
During a press conference on Tuesday, Magic vowed to step down if can’t deliver on any of the top free agents.
“Next summer, if nobody comes and I’m still sitting here like this, then it’s a failure.” […]
“It’s going to be a two-summer thing for the Lakers—this summer and next summer, and that’s it. If I can’t deliver, I’m going to step down myself.
“[Jeanie Buss] won’t have to fire me, I’ll step away from it because then I can’t do this job.”
Magic: ‘If guys decide not to come here it’s not a failure, we turn to next summer…if nobody comes [then] + I’m still sitting here like this, then it’s a failure…If I can’t deliver I’m going to step down, she won’t have to fire me, I’ll step away because I can’t do this job’ pic.twitter.com/yLdF9EWPjM
