Questions swirl as Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson steps into a new role in the organization.

Could he be gunning for Jim Buss’ job?

Buss currently heads the basketball side of the organization, but his infamous deadline for having the team back to contender status is quickly approaching, fueling speculation that Buss could be on the way out.

The Lakers Nation Break Down takes a look at the issue, including Johnson’s comments from last night that only serve to further speculation that he could be hoping to assume control of the team’s on-court product.

Is it a good thing if he is successful in this endeavor?
