Magic gonna make me cry :man6:
I should get an assist for that. It's an intentional pass to oneself, so it's an assist. That way people can't say all I do is shoot.

Streaming online and the end of Kobe's speech got cut off right when the camera turned to Dwight.

Seeing all those legends standing together was great.

man i know magic gets a hard time for not being eloquent. but that was pretty eloquent.

that anecdote about him being a father to Magic during the HIV crisis really hit me. seeing all the Lakers past and present stand together...amazing.

good job Magic...really great.

Of all the current players/former Lakers to be in attendance, nice to see Ronny Turiaf.

To all my Laker brothers and sisters in this thread, raise your glasses with me and let's toast to the life of a great man.

Come on this got to bring our group together! When I saw Nash and Pau there while Kobe was talking I had a really good feeling - this had to get through even Dwight's mind :jam2: :jam2: :jam2:

You won't believe but a friend of mine and I had few shots just for Jerry and the Lakers yesterday at the Club. I mean it's amazing how big his impact was.

Other than Johnson's heartfelt and rousing speech...the ONE that HIT me: Riley "I'm home..."
Nor can the Lakers get blamed for always making the right decisions over decades. At some point its not just luck or "gamble", its superior management and superior ownership.

Outside of family, leave it to the Lakers for Life to give the best speeches. The Logo, the Mamba, the Magicman...Lakers for Life!
