It worked out well obviously. But it was hard work. It wasn’t just happenstance, oh, let’s go sign a bunch of guys. The dynamics of pulling off superstar trades are very, very challenging. They take weeks of hard work, and we were thankful when we acquired Anthony, but we knew the work wasn’t done once we paired LeBron and AD together”

Rob Pelinka said : "make sure I put a bullet through your f**king head”. A Mobile PD spokesperson at the time said they were not actively trying to hunt down Cousins since it is a misdemeanor charge. Los Angeles Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka addressed Cousins situation Friday at NBA Media Day. “I think the most important thing to say is the Lakers as an organization take allegations of domestic violence extremely seriously. That said, when allegations are made for any NBA player, the league takes over and handles that investigation.

He’s a member of our roster and a part of the team, and we’ll just have to wait for guidance from the league on next steps,"
