yeah I was a big Lakers fan in the late 70s early 80s.....Jimmy Chones, Wilkes, Nixon, Kareem....then Magic
Worthy, Scott, Green etc. Would watch a ton of games on TV and went to many. Loved Chic Hearn.
Lost interest in the Shaq Kobe Lakers. Went to college in Northern California and started following the Kings.
I watch a ton of games on TV still. Just frustrated with the Kings.....really poorly run.....almost as bad as the Lakers
although the Lakers have some nice young pieces.
I will heck out Kobe's speech.....Always up for talking basketball.
