Dan Patrick gets emotional remembering Jerry West's life and legacy | Dan Patrick Show | NBC Sports
/ nbcsports - Спорт
He's processing in real time that he'll never see or speak to a friend again. That is so hard.
"He'd be mad at me if I was emotional."
Very true words, Dan. He was 1 of 1.
Amen
Dan is a 1 of 1....
Facts, he had that KILLER INSTINCT even in his 80s
PSA 10
"What are you crying about?" Then Dan tries to reset. Really powerful stuff.
Dan, nothing to be ashamed of, my man...a sad day for many of us who grew up watching him. RIP to The Logo! Gone but NEVER forgotten!
AMEN & AMEN
AMEN 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I wasn't even old enough to have watched him but when I got obsessed with the game about 20 years ago he became one of my favourite players to watch on RUclips and listen to. Anyone old enough to have watched I crave stories of his games please.
I love the guy and and I'm so sad today.
R.I.P. Mr. Clutch, The Logo (Jerry West) 1938-2024
One of the greatest icons in the sport.
Jerry West was a man who cared deeply, who felt deeply the losses in his life. Rest in peace now Jerry, you were a legend.
Seeing him cry talking about kobe, im crying hearing about Jerry 😭
You aint by yourself.
Truth
😢
It's JERRY FUCKING WEST. A man can shed some tears today. A Giant in NBA has passed today. RIP Mr Jerry West
True that!
Paul and the guys did great helping DP through this segment. I was misty-eyed watching this. Love the show guys. Jerry’s a legend. RIP.
Good on Paulie for recognizing Dan was struggling at that moment and jumping in to give Dan space to breath and re-collect himself.
Didn't Dan ask Paulie to help him out here?
@@kodiak138 Watched it a second time and you're right. Missed that.
I grew up near Jerry. Dan's emotion reflects what a decent human being Jerry was beyond basketball. Decency is sorely lacking these days. Jerry was decent. What more can one say?
Did you know Jerry. Did you meet him etc. Seems to me he was all class.
@@waynejohanson1083 Jerry was as intense and classy as anyone I've ever met.
@@ancil57 Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for these words
@@ancil57He sure was. I’m devastated as I was able to meet him, know him and call him friend.
Tomorrow is never promised. Make the absolute most of the relationships in your life. Tell them you love them.
Dan's story at 4:52 choked him - and me - up. Seeing Dan Patrick get this emotional is very rare - but it speaks volumes of the respect and love he had for Jerry West.
I caught the very tail-end of Jerry's career, so I didn't see him at his absolute peak, but I have come to understand that he, truly, was one of the all-time greats. And seeing Michael Jordan's tribute to Jerry West earlier - saying that he would have loved to play against Jerry and, even more, play WITH him. I mean, wow, those are not words that Jordan utters very often. That is also incredible respect for Mr. West.
But a beautiful tribute by Dan Patrick.

Thanks for posting all of this and there's even more. The list goes on and on.
I grew up in SoCal. He's a huge part of my life. Jerry cried when Kobe died, many of us cried today over his loss.
RIP Jerry West he will live forever as the LOGO..what a great player and a man
Dan always keeping it real. The reason he’s my favorite radio personality of all time, because he’s a genuine good human being with a big heart. 😥
RIP to the logo Jerry West 🏀😢🕊️🌹🙏🏼.
He's now with his brother and his basketball son Kobe. RIP Jerry West.
Thank you Jerry West forming the 1980s Showtime Lakers and the Kobe-Shaq era. You will always be on the NBA logo aka Mr. Clutch! RIP Jerry you will never be forgotten!
Dan, I went back and listened to your comments as you learned about the passing of your friend, Jerry West. I sat here and cried again. Thanks for showing us that it is OK to show emotions and care about the people who touched our lives. Mark
I had an aunt, who I lost 10 years ago next month. Her name was Jerri West. When I was a kid, I felt so cool being able to tell my friends that, joking about it and such when I was in grade school in the 60s. Always wanted to meet him to tell him that. R.I.P. Mr. West. 😌
The NBA ambassador. The legend. The logo. RIP Mr. West
🙏🏻 let it out Dan😉
He was my childhood hero. I had the good fortune to spend time with him in Maui at a basketball camp he and Magic did. He was straightforward, genuine, 1st class, and one of a kind. I am heartbroken but I'll cherish the memories for the rest of my life....❤
"do your job"? Mr. Patrick you (in ten quick minutes) gave insight into a LEGEND, whilst being taken aback. You ALWAYS DO "IT" better than anyone I can muster off hand. I'm sorry for your & ALL our loss. Your guys were SO GREAT TOO‼😢Thanks 🙏🏻 for the superb coverage thru the decades with utter class.
That is really heart warming that Dan cried for Jerry. ❤
Jerry was a legend and his appearances on your show was awesome
Total ledgend. My team as a young kid. West , Chamberlain , Goodrich, Happy Harrison, Baylor. Thank you Mr West 🙏🏾
I'd like to hear Goodrich, Riley and Erickson share their thoughts about Jerry.
The hurt is real Dan, even I couldn't fight back my tears. As a lifelong lakers fan following the lakers forever this one hurts...
Sports is magic when you're young. Thanks for the magic, Mr. West. RIP
I did'n't have the fortune of meeting Jerry West, but my earliest memories of basketball included him and I went on to love the game, playing in high school and staying active nearly to my 40s when an Achilles tear sat me on the sofa. Today's NBA holds no interest for me, but Mr. West set me on a path with many happy memories of playing.
Bill walton and jerry west wow!!!
Its OK. Was so glad to hear Jerry West on the show many many times. Always a great listen!
#44 my IDOL , I will never forget getting his autograph at Phx Suns game he was announcing , he spent 5 min talking with us , to me he was the GREATEST ...RIP #44
Tough stretch for DP. Bill Walton and Jerry West. Two legendary figures in the game of basketball. I always loved how Jerry was so soft-spoken when doing his interviews with Dan. He knew the game like a few others did, but shared it in a way that wasn’t in your face. A terrible day for the NBA and sports in general. Rest easy, Jerry.
Jerry West a true classy man. I think about Chick, Jerry and Kobe being apart of my childhood. This is going to be a hard one.....I wish so much I had been able to see him play or see him at the Forum.
well I think the hardest was Kobe, cut down tragically, with a daughter, he was still playing. Did West ever win a championship?
@@gerrydooley951Just cause you think someone’s death hit “harder” doesn’t mean another death can’t hit other people just as hard. By the way, Kobe wasn’t still playing, he retired in 2016. And Jerry won a Championship. 0 for 2, bud.
Literally the first thing I thought of when I heard the news was that Dan Patrick's father's favorite player passed away. Rest in peace legend!
I actually base my own life on whatever Dan likes: if he likes it, that's good enough for me
RIP Mr. West. You are beloved ❤️
Love the emotional transparency Dan’s part. I share his deep sense of loss. 44 is the only NBA jersey I would ever wear. He still holds the record for a round of 18 at Bel Air CC.
Was a Lakers fan since the late 60's, Jerry West was my favorite player, nothing but a class act and a fierce competitor. His book, West By West is excellent, and gives a inside look on his life. RIP Jerry, you will be missed.
You are an absolute Professional sir....thats gotta be tuff to just hear about this ...youre the best Patrick
After reading about him, I had no idea that he didn't think highly of himself and didn't think he was really that good...what a legend!!! "the logo" is all anyone needs to know about his impact on the league.
He was, and IS a man we should all aspire to be. The perfect example of class, humility, and talent personified. Rest in peace, Logo. Hope he gets to embrace Kobe now.
He is the logo…for now and forever. RIP, Legend.
It was very clear, throughout his appearances on the show, that Dan Patrick had the highest utmost respect and admiration for Mr. West. Dan was actually the first person I thought about when I read the news. Mr. Patrick will never read this, but just in case: I’m truly sorry for the loss of one of your heroes.
Thank you, Dan, for showing your emotions for Jerry West. I am 76 and grew up watching him like you. He was the professional of professionals. God Bless him for having shared his talents. There will never be another Jerry West.
I have been a fan of the Los Angeles Lakers since 1965-66 - and that was because I admired him.
To have that effect on people that Jerry West obviously had on Dan and countless others who considered him a friend...is the greatest thing you can do in life and the highest honor your life can receive when you pass
Jerry West lived with, and in that sense overcame, an awful anxiety disorder most of his life. That he didn't let it ruin him for the people in his life is attested by his friends here. I heard him on tape with Mad Dog today talking about the people he admired: the givers. He suffered a lot, but found a way to give so much to others. The true measure of the man.
Jerry West, the legend.
RIP Jerry West 🙏
We lost a giant in our game today. One of the few, if not the only, that was an all time great player and GM, and equally as great of a human. RIP to the Logo 😔
I love dp man..RIP the logo 🙏 ❤
I met Jerry at a event at a local car dealership . He was the nicest person ever . Patient, was cool with everyone. Took a picture, told him thank you for helping turn the Warriors into a winning team . He mentioned Dan Patrick , says that's a good man right there . Rest easy .
He doesn't get the recognition he should. For the role he played with the warriors. Threatening to quit if they traded klay for kevin love. Then convincing Kd to join. Just an all around great basketball mind and person.
Jerry West brought together Kareem, Magic, Worthy and Kobe and Shaq after among a lot of others. When Magic quit as President before the Lakers hired Pelinka all the Lakers fans were saying they should rehire West despite being over 80. West was working as a Clippers advisor semi retired and ploitely shut that rumor down but when he was interviewed he was unreal sharp as could be it was obvious he would have been a fantastic GM even at 80. Mr Basketball, Mr Logo, Mr Laker RIP Jerry.
A LEGEND on and off the court
Only player in history to win finals MVP on the losing team
Rest in Peace Legend
When I heard of Jerry’s passing I immediately thought of Dan. I always remember Dan saying he saw his Dad in him. A hero and a legend of a man.
Beautiful and authentic eulogy to Mr West. 😢much respect to you guys🙇🏿♂️👏🏿👏🏿
I knew today would come eventually. It's even harder than I imagined. I feel empty.
Thank you for showing your emotions, Dan. You and your crew provided an amazing tribute to one of a kind.
One of my first sports heroes, along with Wilt, and made me a Laker for life. My father loved him too … and remembered him being drafted and playing with Elgin. I shed tears today for someone I didn’t have the honor of meeting. That doesn’t happen often. It sure did this time. Rest easy, Mr. Clutch - and thank you.
86 marvelous spins around the sun. Thank you Dan, for sharing your experiences. RIP Mr. West
I am 74 and I been crying since I heard my hero had died.
Jerry West way before my time but recently watch some videos about how good he was. Some of his stats are very amazing and he had a great career that shouldn't be forgotten due to time.
RIP to a true legend, the Logo!
Just went and watched the clip of the surprise appearance by Mr. West on DP’s 10 Anniversary episode. DP getting emotional makes it even tougher to deal with
One of my childhood heroes. One of the all time greats.
RIP Legend.😥
Jerry West my hero, all my life since 1965 when I was 8. 😢
Rest in paradise Mr. Clutch the logo. Grandfather of LA basketball sad day for NBA fans and Lakers fans especially.
Jerry West was one of my favorite players as a kid growing up in the 60's. He reminded me of my Uncle, same looks, character and intensity. God bless you Jerry you're in God's hands now.
man.. I never thought I’d ever see paulie get emotional :( RIP logo a long life well lived
Apologize if I don’t know the gentleman’s name here, but I really appreciate everything he had to say about Mr. West especially the idea that it would be a great opportunity for the NBA to recognize West & cement that he is the logo. West was always about the first name Jordan said he would’ve loved to compete against when telling people it’s unfair to compare eras & rank the best. Also, Walter Payton was my first sports hero too.
Ok, now I'm crying 😢. I remember the great Jerry West as a player in the 60s and 70s. Sorry DP. It's that time in our lives when the golden ones are leaving. Loved your interviews with him over the years 🙏🌹
Thank You, God for Jerry West. Rest in Heavenly Peace...
Such a nice man across the TV/Radio! The Legend!
Jerry West was 86, but like it always is with icons I never thought he would die!
Thought of you DP once I heard it. Love you and the Dannetes.
Mr West, I met you once and you were wonderful. Rest well and give Mr. Baylor a hug.
RIP Jerry West thanks for the memories.
Dan, thank you for your touching and always unique perspective on Jerry West with zero preparation. I look at you as the Jerry West of sports commentators on television. I look forward to your last years doing the show, and to be honest, I'll be jubilant if you make the decision to stay on for another handful of seasons.
I'm a few years older than you and feel the distress of living among younger generations that have no knowledge or feel for what came before they became sports fans. Your comment about the Big O and Jerry being rivals as the premiere NBA guards of their era probably had 89% of fans under 55 wondering...Who is Oscar Robertson? Those who came before must not be forgotten!
The best❤❤❤❤
Without words!!!!
Overwhelming sadness!!!!
No shame in crying! I was the same way when Kobe passed away. Couldnt control my emotions at all. Living in LA, tomorrow i'm heading to Staples Center and placing some flowers at the Statue of Jerry West for you Dan Patrick.
Paulie saved Dan this day. Kept emotions out of it. Class act. ❤
He was an Icon a Legend a true champion of the sport he was class personified
Nothing to be ashamed of Mr. Patrick, RIP Jerry West, top 10 player of all time, end of story!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has any player in any sport excelled in ALL levels of his sport like West did? Truly the never-to-be-equaled ambassador, both on and off the court, of the NBA.
Dan talking about his hero got to me.
People forget that as recently as the 70s, football and baseball were THE spectator sports, and even hockey and boxing were more popular than basketball. Basketball was gaining popularity but still somewhat niche and its future as a massively popular global sport was not guaranteed. West was one of a handful of people that helped elevate the game to its current status. It’s honestly not much of a stretch to say Jerry West is one of the main reasons so many of us grew up with close access to basketball courts. RIP Logo😢
He was my idol and inspiration to never give up on my dreams
The whole crew is emotional. Jerry was special.
Dan, as always, very real and touching. We lost another legend. You said, you wanted to be like Jerry West, I did as well, but not as a player. When I left the military in the 90s and I was entering the corp world, I didn't really have a role model growing up in south chicago, my dad was a laborer, I saw this interview with Jerry west, and he was dressed to the 9s and talked about being a professional, liked seeing guys dress up for travel, taking pride in how you present yourself, I took that to heart. God Bless Mr West and Rest In Peace.
I was able to see him play in his prime anf he was great
He could do it all. West and Baylor together were amazing...
Great tribute to a great man. I loved listening to his interviews in recent years.
I got a lump in my throat seeing Dan struggling to maintain his composure.
RIP to a legend. Modern fans have to understand about Jerry West as a player, he was the most complete guard offensively and defensively before Jordan. He went to 9 NBA Finals, had more 35+ point games in the Finals than anybody else, 5th all time in playoffs ppg at 29 PPG, averaged 27/6/7 without a 3pt shot, and of course was arguably the greatest executive in NBA history.
None any better in my book. RIP Mr. Clutch!!!
My basketball idol growing up NYC❤
Thanks for the memories, Dan.
Paulie and Dan. Locally we did get to see him on tv. I'm 73 and I grew up watching him tv. I had the honor of meeting him. He was the perfect gentleman. Classy . And very down to earth😊
I heard about it while DP and danettes talking golf. I knew how much Dan admired Jerry and that this was going to hit him hard. As Paulie said hated to bring the news. RIP Mr. Clutch. Dan my condolences
