Jerry West is the reason the Lakers had the opportunity to win 5 titles in the 21st century. Thanks a lot Logo!
*3, give Kupchak credit for the last 2.
+tairentruong jerry west was president of the grizzlies back in 08 & while he was gm in LA, mitch was a student of his executive philosophy. so one could argue that the gasol trade was in large part orchestrated by jerry west, therefore giving him credit for all 5 of the last titles
+tairentruong the last two titles were Jerry west back court Kobe bryant and fisher. And west helped the gasol trade with memphis. And lakers for odom from Jerry west free agent Shaq. Mitch has been living off Jerry west for years.
@@SuperSkinsman West was no longer with Grizzlies when Gasol trade happened
He’s brought success everywhere he went. The logo is legit, a GOAT in his own right.
This guy built championship franchises in LA two times. Then went to Memphis and built a playoff team. Then went to bay area and well, nothing needs to be said. All that since 1982, along with all the changes that the game has experienced. Of course he didn't do all that only by himself, but it's undeniable that he must be one of the greatest GMs of all time, and not only in basketball.
In addition to this, incredible player, NBA legend and champion, MVP, all star and ALWAYS talking with the utmost respect and class.
Hats off to Jerry West, this guy is one of the best persons that has even been in the game
SilentDoc78 now he’s killin it in LA again..
best player of 2000 decade = Kobe
Jerry has done everything in his basketball life at the highest of levels including presenting himself with class...the Logo, Mr. Clutch himself.
andre carter he won finals mvp on the losing team they werent on him
To watch Jerry west talking abt Kobe so proudly and happily, u just how incredibly hurt for him to handle kobe's passing. It's traumatizing. It's just sad. I really wish Jerry all well and hopefully he can get thru this.
Kobe is a legend. Jerry is the builder of the legends.
God I wish Jerry had a podcast
When Jerry talked about Lakers having the most impactful NBA players throughout the years compared to other NBA teams thats the type of stuff I have been saying for YEARS.
Truly appreciate the vision and confidence in giving Kobe the chance at 17 years old 🙏🏼✨💛💜🕊
Jerry's whole life has been basketball, he really is the logo and he has a lot of class. Jerry saw something in Kobe and knew it when he saw it. I loved the 2000's era NBA.
he is like warren buffet of basketball
Kobe Bryant is so easy to love and like he been in the spotlight since he been a kid before he was 17 he was in the spotlight in Philadelphia and now the world as his fans are going to miss him
Jerry West IS the Greatest Laker GM
Wish The Logo came back to LA

Yusuf Mini-Mamba Ali he came back

Wow this is incredible for kobe bryant to have the respect of the all time greats.
His son and Mitch are the next best thing we could have. Besides i have a feeling hes getting ready to retire
Jerry West
-played on the team that set that regular season record in 1972; was part of the management that built the team that set the current record in 2016
-played with the guy who scored the most points in NBA history; drafted the guy who scored the second most
-played on the team that set the all time US pro sports record for longest win streak at 33 games; helped build the team that set the second longest NBA streak at 28
-drafted the modern icon of clutch play and hard work; was that same icon as a player in his day
-believed he didn’t deserve to be the logo of the league when he became it; has gone on to become the most impactful combination of player and executive in NBA history, creating 3 separate dynasties so far
-played with the current 2nd and 3rd all time most PPG for a career players, and is currently sixth himself; formed teams as an executive including the current 4th most PPG player (Durant), a team that beat the 5th on the list currently (Lebron) multiple times in the finals along with the Shaq (22nd), Kobe (13th) Lakers that beat the 7th place player on the list in the finals (A.I.)
(West will likely return to his spot at 4th on the list before too long)
-played in as many Finals games as Lebron has and is 4th all time in playoff PPG and 3rd all time in Finals PPG
-Don’t tell Jerry this or other diehard Kobe fans but he had better career averages than Kobe in every major statistical category except Free throw percentage. PPG, RPG, APG, SPG, BPG, FG% all led by West in a head to head comparison.
I mean no disrespect to Kobe of course but West is truly every bit one of the all time best Lakers and best players in general who’s ever been in the league.
Real love
RIP Kobe. Jerry West is a class act. Salute to the logo.
#JERRYWESTisGOLD 💜💛
RESPEST...wish he would still work with the lakers to keep the greatness where it should be.
Imagine Kobe becoming a Laker Coach and then becoming the GM.
There’s never gonna be a mj kobe archetype player anymore with the way basketball is being played now everybody wanna shoot 3s like curry kobe was the last of the breed
Jerry west goes to the clippers and now they are top of the west. That’s the impact this legend has.
Kobe the real 🐐
The true architect in the Lakers success. Lakers should have held on to West no matter what. Worst move ever letting him walk away.
Notice how Jerry uses the word "We" in Los Angeles. He still feels aligned with the Laker franchise. I Hope he comes back to consult for the Lakers management to direct the next era! We need him!
can't see him back till son of buss fam is around the corner he the one who released him and Jerry seen opportunity in next door.
Thistle Town Gang 700 Jim Buss is FINALLY GONE!!!! Magic is going to hire his old mentor and they're going to team up to win us 10 chips this time. 26x champions
Exactly, What that "A"hole Jim Buss did to him is f up. I hope Jeanie can bring his name and legacy back to LA.
NOW with HIS SON leaving PREMATURELY ITS TIME for WEST to COME back HOME...I THINK KOBE would AGREE to SEE his POPS BACK where HE BELONG MAKING MOVES for THA PURPLE n GOLD mix...THA LOGO is THA DYNASTY MAKER...THE BEST GM/ADVISOR EVER...I now UNDERSTAND how KOBE'S demeanor CAME about...like FATHER like SON...
LOVE MY LAKER FAMILY...JENNIE COM ON WE NEED THA GODFATHER BACK...
Kobe was a tough mo fo..
Wow.
