Was a big thrill for me to see Jerry one year at the Pyramid. Previous Message
Yes Jerry and Elgin were two all time great scorers and were the heart and sole of the Lakers in the 1960s. They should have beaten the hated Cletics a couple of times. In game 7 one year Don Nelson made an extremely lucky shot that bounced 10 feet straight up off the rim and fell into the hoop in the last second. Another time Frank Selvy missed a short jumper to win it in the last second. Previous Message
Jerry and Elgin were an amazing NBA duo that Laker fans loved to watch. I hated that Boston won those titles over us and was glad Jerry finally got a ring. RIP Logo. Previous Message
My favorite NBA player growing up passed away at 86. Chick Hearn called him Mr Clutch and Zeke from Cabin Creek. As great a player he was he was equally great as an NBA Executive especially with the Lakers.
