Jerry deserved far better from the lakers
In deed
RIP, Jerry. An all-time great NBA player, successful in the front office, and most important of all, humble and caring.
He will be remembered
Thank you for honoring your Brother’s sacrifice 🇺🇸. And thank you for living an honorable life. R.I.P.
I started following the NBA in 1963-64 when I was ten years old. Back then he was viewed as an extremely talented player and an all-time favorite. The Boston Celtics just had a better "team" and that is what stopped the Lakers. God gave him physical gifts and a mindset to the point where he was specially ordained. His talents and abilities could not be taught. Needless to say he was my favorite player when I was growing up and because of him I became a fan of the LA Lakers. As one commentator said - Jerry West's personal life was complicated, but I just wish he knew how highly he was thought of by so many people. May he rest in peace and I trust he is enjoying heaven.
I started playing and following basketball since 1967, when I was 11. I was a big Knick fan after that. During their 1969-1970 Championship year, he was the only player we feared on the Lakers in the Finals! Since remembered his desperate shot to tie one of the games; thank God we won that game and the chip. R.I.P. sir, truly a great player and greater person.
My idol, R.I.P. Mr. Clutch, you were one of a kind! ❤
You just know this great man Jerry West is going to Heaven RIP Mr. West will never be forgotten
Very true, he will be remembered
RIP Mr. West. I wish I was old enough to have watched you play the great game of basketball.
R.I.P. Kobe and Jerry 💛💙😞
🙏 🙏
As a GM Jerry always signed those players who were focused and worked hard and unselfish.
Love you Mr. Clutch! RIP
Listening to him speak, what a nice and humble man. Wish there were more people like him in the world of politics and business. Think the world could become a better place overall, not overnight. But possible.
Jerry Buss would SPIN in his GRAVE if he saw how his DIMWITTED DAUGHTER has treated JERRY WEST along with the LAKERS.
UPGRADE THE LOGO KEEP WEST MAKE IT ROUND 🏀
I loved watching Jerry West when he was playing. His jump shot was the most perfect I've seen before or since, arm straight up from the elbow, hand spread across the ball, with a release and follow through that practically guaranteed the ball would drop through the net. He was a good man from very humble beginnings similar to my own, so he kind of showed me that it didn't matter who or where I came from, I had permission to allow myself to have success in life.
And by the way, in the early 70's the CBS Network televised the games nationally, and I remember when they played their opening they showed Jerry West dribbling the basketball down the court and around other players, and then then his body morphed into the NBA logo. So it IS Jerry West on the NBA logo.
I loved this player with ally heart as a kid in the 1960's,and early 1970's,,,,,he will be missed by the entire country ,,,,he was by far,,,, the best and most complete guard ,both on offense and on defense ,,in the sixties a superstar and man can he shoot that basketball ,! a beautiful text book jumpsuit !,,,He accomplished so much in his career he will always be Mr clutch RIP ,,,
He was a great man.
Yes with a beautiful soul
May his soul rest well
Nice to hear West speak. The logo matured with wisdom and though he was always a bit private and somewhat introverted... he held it in a lot but those that he knew and tuned into him saw his wisdom intuitively... Kobe was one of those who had a private and respectful intuitive friendship with Jerry West. Rest In Peace Mr. Clutch Mr. Logo.
In the 1965 playoffs ,,,he averaged 46 points a game !!!!!!!!
what a great and touching 23 minutes. He lived his life and his actions showed more than the lip service most modern players give. Less talking more doing and again its very sad how the Lakers and the Buss family did him. Such a messy family and situation with Jim and Jene
wish the Lakers organization made amends with him. I still remember he was pissed when his lifetime tickets got revoked a couple years ago
Me too but from the Lakers perspective its tough to give lifetime tickets to a city rivals advisor.
As much as I liked and admired JW he did that to himself he shouldn’t have gone to the Clippers
Come on guys, he was always with the Lakers. Clippers = Lakers JV.
@@darrendoyle568 Well he tried to come back after the warriors but lakers said no we dont need you.
It’s Disgraceful 😢. His heart 💜was with the Lakers. He’s always been a Lakers legend. You don’t spit on, and turn your back on a man who has always tried his best to do his best. Did he fail at times, absolutely, we all do. But he did more good for an organization than any person in any sports organization. That calls for a little respect and a lot of forgiveness.
when was this --what date ? thank you
Zeke from Cabin Creek...RIP
I always followed Jerry West games even in Vietnam. Did the Lakers win last night... how many points did Jerry West score? That was in 1965.
Pure class. Jerry is experiencing the glory of God now… Jesus is coming soon. Prepare yourself.
Things called gods are made up nonsense. Don’t sully his memory with foolish trash.
When was this?
RIP
TRUE MOUNTAIN NEAR WEST BY GOD VIRGINIAN!!!!!
There no date provided to give context as to how long before his death this charity function was. When you have a title that says "before his death", it implies it was recent.
The most important thing about Jerry West life is he accepted Jesus Christ as his lord! We will meet again in heaven! Peace and grace forever!!!!
Mike Do you know the details of this ?
@@michaelkraus4135 No I do not but by his words about his brother tells me he is in the know and by the character of the man it seems evident! Hopefully! GOD bless!!!!
Humbly GREAT!!
What was the exact date of this speech? I found another version of this speech and it looks like it might’ve happened sometime around 2016.
