Los Angeles Lakers owner Jeanie Buss doesn’t play games when it comes to handling Twitter trolls.
A Twitter user with the handle @BronGotGame and more than 8,000 followers tweeted a screenshot of an exchange with Buss where the Lakers owner appeared to get pissed about a simple interaction.
However, as we all know, things are rarely as they appear to be online.
Buss hit back with her own receipts that showed @BronGotGame was hardly some random fan congratulating her on some nice trades.
A previous message he allegedly sent the NBA owner, which didn’t appear in his screenshots, showed @BronGotGame the “worst owner in sports if” she didn’t “get a trade done before this season is unsalvageable.” The exchange also included a tweet that has since been deleted.
Here is an example of the harassing messages. As Iβve said on this platform before, everyone is entitled to their opinion so I am not arguing about that. Its just that I donβt want my DMβs to be full of your pretend GM BS trade suggestions thatβs all. pic.twitter.com/oaMLmeEUsG

Should Jeanie Buss take a step back and relax.
While it’s always great to see someone hand out some quick karma to a troll, is this really the best use of Jeanie Buss’ time?
We’re talking about a woman that owns arguably the most prestigious franchise in the NBA. A quick Google search tells me she’s worth a minimum of several hundred million dollars.
So, to be clear, she’s worth a ton of cash and owns an NBA team. Yet, she’s busy arguing with a guy who doesn’t even have his real name or photo on his Twitter profile. Why exactly are we arguing with Lebronchitis?
If you have a ton of money in the bank and OWN AN NBA TEAM, why the hell are you arguing with trolls on Twitter?
Does she not know the block button exists? If not, now would be a great time to figure it out, Jeanie.
Grab a drink, check your fat bank account and relax, Jeanie. You might have won the battle, but it’s still not a great look.
Any pro sports owner – or major college AD – who EVER responds to a “message board monkey” is lowering his/her self to a the sub-human species of the board monkey. Never a good look …
She is easily in the top 5 of worst owners of a professional sports team in America. But for the joke of a “championship” the Lakers won during COVID, the team has been WORSE under her than her supposed idiot brother. The fact that she responds to trolls on Twitter only proves that further.
