EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- There are times when Rob Pelinka will walk down the hallway from his office in the UCLA Health Training Center, past Magic Johnson's office where a flat screen television is almost always on ESPN, and down to Luke Walton's office.
Sometimes, the sounds of the Grateful Dead and other '70s classic rock will be blaring out of the head coach's office as Walton gets "in the zone." Other times, Pelinka will find the room as quiet as a library with Walton deep in meditation.
"I usually keep going when I see that," the Los Angeles Lakers' general manager said, laughing.
