Mr. West is a class act. Kind of boss you do not want to disappoint. Most former Lakers speak highly of him.

I lived in SoFL when Shaq was with Miami. Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to meet MANY great athletes, from Mantle and DiMaggio to Wilt and Russell, Ali, Koufax and Drysdale, Nolan Ryan, Hakeem and Clyde...but Shaq was the NICEST most generous one of the lot. For a good cause, he would show up anywhere, anytime and always give his all. And he LOVED kids, who obviously returned the sentiment. He was also the BIGGEST human I've ever seen, including Wilt, who looked downright slender next to Shaq.

I have him #10 All-time,but he would never be in the G.O.A.T. conversation because alot of people are simplistic ring counters,& his 1-8 record in Finals is frowned on unjustly. Even though he averaged more points,rebounds,assist,steals,& shot a higher field goal percentage than Kobe,most people don't put him as the second greatest point guard ever.Again unjustly.

Jerry West had more to do with making the 5:13 L.A. Lakers a solid franchise than any other Laker player. Jerry had the heart of a warrior and the great skill set of his era. I watched him from the time he first came to L.A. until he retired. After his playing days, he built the team and the organization. The Lakers should have kept him in the franchise. Lakers loss.

JERRY THE PEARLESS HE WAS NAMED MR.CLUTCH BY THE LATE GREAT CHICK HEARNS THE FAMOUS LAKERS ANNOUNCER FOR 45 YEARS MR CLUTCH HE TRULY WAS.
West was watching a scrimmage of prospects along with other scouts. A scout turned to him and said “Did you notice #10s demeanor on the bench when his replacement made that awesome play?” West: “I see everything.”
Mr. West, next to Wilt you're my favorite NBA player of all time.
I hate the Lakers, but I have the utmost respect for Mr. Jerry West. I listen to all his comments, even though I don't agree with him 100% I agree w/him 99.99999%.
Michael Jordan Once Declined To Be Called 'GOAT': “I don’t want it on a sense because I think it disrespects Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West. You know, all the guys that prior to me, I never had a chance to play against. What everybody’s saying I am I never had the chance to compete with other legends that were prior to me. When I hear it, I cringe a little bit because it’s a little bit embarrassing because no one knows… I would love to have played against them but I never did. For you to say, I am better than him, I mean it’s your opinion," Jordan said.

He once had Harrison Barnes as a guest in his Bel Air home for a time, and when it was time to eat, he told him, "..We eat healthy in this house.."
That dude would be hard to stop if he can run the court.
Shaq has his own gravity. Watching a pre-season game in Anaheim had a view down the hallway. Brian Shaw comes around the corner, how tall is he? 6’4”. Then Samaki Walker - he’s taller at 6’10”. Then Shaq. Literally made the other dudes look like little kids.
Victor is listed at about 7'3", but looking at him standing next to David Robinson who is 7', he has to be at least 7'5".
Shaq wasn't chunky. He was fat. His lack of conditioning and dedication cost him some rings, IMO.
SAS had the exact same record with Victor as the year before.
During West’s era there was no one better at his size. Oscar was in his own league. He was the first point forward kinda guy. What a shame to have to compare everyone looking for the goat. What was wrong with enjoying Tiny Archibald, Walt Frazier, Lenny Wilkins, Earl Monroe, Dave Bing, Sam Jones, Gail Goodrich, world b Free….and easily another dozen incredible basketball players in the backcourt
Before watching or reading comments I’m gonna make 3 guesses 1 Elgin Baylor 2 Oscar Robertson 3 Bill Russell I just can’t see him choosing anyone that came after his own era.

Shaq did say Jerry West manhandled him one time, in with some sort of super "man" strength when Shaq was acting up. Hard to picture but that was coming from Shaq himself, I heard him say it.
“He’s a fun guy!” Punches Ostertag in the face and rips bathroom stall doors apart! Seriously, Jerry West! 😂 Shaquile O’Neal is mad at anyone who doesn’t believe he was the best player in the history of the NBA! Nothing but a bully is what I see
It has to be Wilt
David Robinson seems has lost lots of height, like from 7-1 to 6-7. At his age, he shouldn't shrink that much.
@RejectHumanityReturn2Monke
6 ай бұрын
😂 no one shrinks that much from just old age and you can see Manu who's 6'5"-6'7" besides Robinson, so 6'10"+ would be close to his current height. Wemby, from current players' opinions, looks to be closer to 7'5" than the 7'3" he is listed at.
Wow! Jerry really looks skinny here. I guess that’s why you don’t see many overweight 80+ year olds. Not sure if doctors encourage their older patients to lose weight, or do people who reach 80+ or 90+ have such poor muscle tone that they have a really hard time putting on weight. I’m not sure 🤔
I thought his answer would've been Kobe Bryant
Jerry, please get Mac McClung signed to an NBA club. He's the reigning NBA Slam Dunk Champ and still toiling in the GLeague. McClung reminds me of you with his vert and natural athleticism.
@muddeer5383
7 ай бұрын
What does his vert have to do with him belonging in the league? McClung is a power-jumper, meaning his jumping power comes from his upper legs and hips. In basketball, what is important is not how high you can jump, but how quickly you can get to the ball. Sure, when you have all the time in the world to ready your jump, power jumpers are great. But that happens maybe once or twice in a game, and of course in dunk contests. Power jumpers have to squat down low first to get the burst upwards, which takes too long. In basketball, what is valuable is quick leapers, those who's jumping power comes from their calf muscles and ankles: Dr. J, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, etc.
Simply being tall is not a talent 🙄
Jordan!
You dont want shaq to teach you, good guy and big guy but no skills, many other complete players

Nowadays every good ballhandler uses a crossover to break down defender so you need to be able to go both ways. Back in the day it was more about change speed than change direction (hesitation dribble start stop slow down speed up.) If that was your main move (and the ones who were good at it could open themselves up just as well as current guys with their crossover) you could get by fine if you weren't equally good at changing direction.
