Laker Girl Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
The never-before-told story of the Buss family and of one woman's rise to the top in a man's world, Laker Girl is an unprecedented glimpse into the glamorous world of the Los Angeles Lakers. It is also a behind-the-scenes journal of the 2009–10 Lakers season, a year in which the franchise captured its 16th world championship. By the time Jeanie was 19, she was already a high-ranking executive with World Team Tennis. Today, she is the Lakers' executive vice president of business operations and one of the most influential women in professional sports. Along the way, she's rubbed elbows with everyone from Michael Jordan, John McEnroe, and Shaquille O'Neal to Ryan Seacrest, Khloe Kardashian, Hugh Hefner, and Jack Nicholson. And she's done it all in her own unique, inimitable style. In this updated edition, Buss discusses her recent engagement to Phil Jackson and looks back on the Lakers' eventful past three seasons—an era that has included multiple coaching changes, changes in the front office, a new TV deal, and much more.

A must for any Laker fan. Jeanie sometimes is a little warm and fuzzy, but she gives you a good peek into the business side of the Laker Dynasty.
I really appreciated learning about Jerry Buss' childhood years and the behind the scenes description about the Lakers and the bizarre events surrounding the courting of Phil Jackson for the 2012 season and then the hiring of Mike DanToni. A really good read. I am left with the impression that Jeannie is a smart and compassionate person.
I've followed the Lakers for 35 years. This is a great look at the Laker family. So much more depth that you don't get through the main stream media.
What a great book. Great to learn about how much is involved in owning a team. Great truthful account. Definitely recommend.
