Jim means in Howard's own heart, in spirit. That's all.

"My brother ultimately makes the decisions," says Jeanie. "I defer and will continue to defer because that's what my dad believed would be successful." Deferring, though, clearly is different from agreeing, and while Jeanie is supportive of her brother, she barely hides her frustration at not being included in major team moves. "I would be more comfortable if I understood what the decision process was, and I'm not always involved in it," she says. "To be held accountable by the league and not have a seat at the table when decisions are made is hard."

Jim concedes that Jeanie is not consulted on basketball decisions but denies he wields unilateral authority. He insists the Lakers are a democracy that includes GM [B]Mitch Kupchak, to whom Jim says he often defers. "I don't run the franchise," he says. "We run it as a family. I'm just a figurehead. I like it collective. Now I might have to put my name on a [decision], but I can't have the ego to make those calls alone."
Jim nonetheless is credited -- some say blamed -- with orchestrating events last season that contributed to the team's poor performance. Head coach Mike Brown was replaced five games into the season with current coach Mike D'Antoni instead of Jackson, who presided over the Lakers' past five titles. As Dr. Buss lay dying at Cedars-Sinai, D'Antoni and Jackson were approached about the job. Jackson thought he was being given time to mull his interest when he received a call from Kupchak saying D'Antoni had been hired.

"The Lakers went into that week prepared to offer the job to Phil," says one source. "Dr. Buss may have rubber-stamped [the D'Antoni hiring], but he clearly wasn't at the helm. If he had been healthy and involved, that never would've happened."

But the Lakers need to acquire more than salary-cap room if they want to be in play for the league's biggest superstars. "They're living on the History channel," says one free agent, meaning the team remains convinced that the attraction of playing for the Lakers in L.A. is enough. As one NBA agent notes: "The Lakers were built for a different era. Their personnel has been depleted and [research] infrastructure is outdated. It's important to be in a major market, but not as important anymore. And they were always able to spend more than other teams. Now they can't." A longtime opposing assistant coach adds that free agents feel the Lakers' track record is impressive but the team is not on the cutting edge when it comes to marketing, physical therapy or analytics. The sense is that institutional arrogance has caused a slow but evident decay. "It hurts to hear that," says Jeanie, without contesting it.

Those close to Howard say the Lakers could have persuaded him to stay. Even Jeanie believes that if her father had not been sick, he would have sealed the deal like so many before it. "It's disappointing that Dwight isn't here," she says. "I feel like we failed him."

Whether he was a laker or a passenger doesn't only depend on how long he played there imho. TC also only played in Dallas for one season but he'll always be remembered as an integral member of that 11' team. It depends on what you've contributed during your 1 yr spell. If you won that city nothing but a #7 seed and a 1st round broom then you were probably just a passer-by imho.
