Loved Van Exel. The guys on the roster in his rookie season were very interesting....Sam Bowie, Vlade, Rambis, Worthy.....and Magic was briefly the head coach. What an odd year in Laker history, the last remnants of the legendary 80s teams mixed in with guys like Van Exel, Lynch, Elden Campbell, Peeler and Threatt.

Was a Van Exel fan because he played for Bob Huggins at Cincy. Back in the day I went to his summer basketball camp before he took the Bearcat job.

Elgin is always forgotten in these things too.

Man Baylor was great. Too bad NBA fans of a certain age probably have no idea how good he was.

Really is strange, but he was in the shadow of West and Wilt on a lot of those teams.

He was my favorite player on those Lakers teams...until "1, 2, 3, Cancun".

I think that is the best possible 5
Big concern is the outside shooting for that team in the three-point era. Those boys could get cold. Haha especially if Kobe is chuckin

Kobe gets a lot of criticism for not passing, but he was second best in assists by a shooting guard in NBA history (behind Clyde). Part of that is longevity, but he was still 13th all time in APG at the position.

Nah, Magic from the court lol. Riley or Kundla would be options if not Phil. 21 titles between those 3 coaches...

When you said Kobe's 2nd all time in assists by a SG that got my attention so I looked some stuff up. There are some players listed as SG/SF, like Tmac. But went with pure SG's and not players that played SG & SF during their career.

Harden- 6.5

Reggie Theus- 5.8

AI- 5.7

Clyde- 5.6

D. Wade- 5.4

MJ- 5.3

Pete Maravich- 5.1

Jeff Horneck/Alvin Robertson- 4.9

Kobe- 4.7

Well that's what I get for not reading the entire comment. Been a rough couple of days, some family issues. Father-n-law's in the hospital. My bad if I've been kinda out of it the last few days.

True.

That one easier to understand though.

They had Kareem and Wilt.

Arguably the top 3 centers of all time.

And you aren’t playing those guys together.

There was an all time lineup with AC Green in it instead of LeBron.

Fix that by playing LeBron at 4, Kobe at 3 and Jerry West at 2.

Lots of options in LA.

Best wishes. Lost my grandmother a few months back, was tough via my mother mostly (I hadn't seen my grandmother much since 2020).

Thanks. He suffered a stroke recently. At 84 didn't think he was gonna make it. But he's through the worst of it and should be back home in a few days.
