Really wish Jerry West can be back with the Lakers even as just an advisor.
Stanley Kuo HE WILL BE BACK ! Bank on it .. AT LEAST his sons there helping in the War room w Magic .. magic got a STAFF ! 👀🔥🔥 wait on it
Stanley Kuo Same, West knows talent.
I've got bad bad news
Jerry West is a personification of the old-school coach/father figure types we used to hear about. They would discipline you, be hard on you, guide, educate, but deep down love their players like a father. The term "guru" comes from that - guru doesn't mean expert; it means the one who enlightens.
That man right there got us Kobe and shaq
Rickytheshoemaker THANK YOU JERRY !! The LOGO! MR Clutch !!
cant forget lowkey hooking us up with pau too
andola jackson yes that's why I say Kobe's overrated .. he got help when Pau came from Memphis .. WHO WAS GM?! JERRY WEST ! Shaq 3 FMVP >>> Kobe 2 FMVP
And a Lakers three peat, that no other NBA team has been able to accomplish since.
Jerry West is the greatest Laker of all time. People who don't think that don't know the history of the game or the Lakers.
@eduar ed he's not talking about just pure playing impact, he is saying that all around jerry west is the greatest laker because he had a huge impact in so many of the championships the lakers won over the years. He was the coach / general manager for the team during the kareem / magic era. Then when they retired he was talented enough to keep the team relevant during the 90s so that he could convince shaq to sign there and make a draft night trade for kobe bryant and create the next laker's dynasty. Only reason he doesn't have even more rings as an execute for the lakers is because he left as he felt his job wasn't challenging enough, so he went to memphis to try and build a playoff team from nothing.
@eduar ed FYI, Magic Johnson went to the finals 9 times (not 8) and he won 3 League MVP awards (not 4).
Two words, Kobe Bryant.
His name ain’t jerry west it’s mr clutch
Jerry help add 6 rings to this great franchise
Watching this after Kobe's death, Jerry West is genuinely a very nice guy god bless him
the original goat
I would vote for Jerry West. Regardless of party.
jerry west did alot for the lakers man
Jerry West is a fortune teller. He knew way back when that Shaq was gonna be an all time great
He literally is a time lord. When he was an advisor for the Warriors he played a part in the decision for them to trade Monta Ellis instead of Steph which seemed risky at the time.
Jerry created the deadliest duo ever!
They aren’t even the deadliest laker duo
Biggest mistake by Orlando to not give him the max

251Trioxin Mr clutch**
It would be funny when the Lakers give Kobe his statue and they place it underneath Shaq's statue making look like he's carrying Shaq.
JL and the irony bc SHAQ won ALL 3-finals MVP so I guess it wasn't kobe carrying
you made it happen mr. logo thank you so much! You mean more to the lakers than any other!
Great speech by a great man for a great man.
Jerry West is a National treasure
I’m sure jerry told Kobe as he was walkin off “I loved you like a son too”
Jerry west must be like a fortune teller or something. He knew Shaq was going to be good watching him play in 89 and he knew Kobe was going to be good so he traded so he could drafts Kobe
Rip bean Bryant 😔😔🙏🏻
Hahaha at 6:18 does someone yell “Go Heat” in the background when Jerry was talking about how sad he was when Shaq left Los Angeles? Cuz if so that’s hilarious.
no he said KOOOOBEEE
One of the greatest guards if all time. Mr. Clutch, Mr. Laker.
Shaq look like a little kid watching jerry talk and praise him
Jerry The Legend!
Beautiful speech.
Besides being one of the greatest players ever, Jerry West was possibly the greatest NBA executive and scout ever!
Call him mr clutch
Hold up hold up hold up, They gave SHAQ A Statue BEFORE The MAMBA? OH HAIL NAW
Lakers got Shaq bec the Magic effed-up big time. They deserve a Bambino-esque curse.
That man comes in late like a celebrity
5:31
And Kobe never really got over being full of himself - though he did turn into a great player.
RIP

Lol, you see Kobe's face? He was like "what the fuck?". Old age man, old age
