The Buss Brothers Got Buss’d, And Tyrese Maxey Changed The Locks
Summary:
A $10 billion throne doesn’t just crown a new owner—it rewrites the playbook. We trace how the Lakers moved from a family-run empire to a modern operation poised to borrow from the Dodgers’ think tank model under Mark Walter. From the old Buss succession plan and the failed attempt to oust Jeanie to the abrupt exits of Joey and Jesse, we connect the receipts and ask the only question that matters: will Los Angeles finally invest in the analysts, scouts, cap minds, and sports science that turn star power into sustainable winning?
We stack Walter’s Dodgers résumé—deep front office, aggressive payroll, data-first culture—against what the Lakers need right now. Then we zoom out to the 2026 draft, where a Big Three just became a potential Fantastic Four. Darren Peterson’s engine, AJ Dybansa’s tools, Cameron Boozer’s completeness, and Caleb Wilson’s two-way leap reshape tank math and trade markets. Add international risers like Kareem López and Dash Daniels, and suddenly the top tier looks deeper, sharper, and more expensive to trade into.
Finally, we head to Milwaukee, where Tyrese Maxey dropped 54 and quietly changed Philadelphia’s locks. We lay out why the Sixers should treat Maxey as the offensive sun and reframe Paul George as optionality, not oxygen. If Maxey’s the timeline, roster moves, minutes, and money need to orbit him. That’s not sentiment—it’s strategy backed by production, pace pressure, and decision-making in crunch time.
If you care about how ownership, process, and talent converge, this one’s for you. Tap play, then tell us: do you trust the Lakers’ new model, and how far can Maxey take Philly? If you vibe with the show, follow, rate, and share with your hoop group chat—subscribe now and drop your take.
