The Greatest Laker ever with the 2nd Greatest Laker ever
19 comments
Who you got as the greater of the 2?
Magic Johnson is the greatest laker
Magic should’ve stuck around for 1 more year.
Magic, Shaq and Kobe on the same team.
Correct
A certain giant center would be pissed with that statement. lol
Really can’t go wrong with which order you choose. In a franchise of ICONS, It’s these 2 and then everyone else.
Magic is not only the greatest laker, but the greatest basketball player ever.
Luka should be in there too.
No.
So crazy ,where’s Kareem
Kobe #8 is number 1 Kobe #24 number 2
Both Magic Johnson and Jerry West have said it: Kobe Bryant is the greatest Los Angeles Lakers ever.
Magic is 1A. Joy, charisma, Showtime. Even Lakers haters love Magic — the league’s golden son.
Kobe was the opposite. Obsession. Precision. Discomfort. He didn’t want to be liked — he wanted to win. That edge, that arrogance, that demand for excellence? That’s Lakers DNA.
Magic built the love.
Kobe enforced the standard.
.
Captain is ahead of 8/24 for a variety of reasons. No off court issues. Never held the franchise hostage and flirted with the Bulls to get his way. Love Kobe, but you have to take the good with the bad.
Which one is Kareem, now?
If only Magic played for 1 more yeah at that time where he played with rookie Kobe like how Dirk played his last season with a rookie Luka, it would’ve been a goated season for me.
But I guess fuck HIV
So we just going to rule out Lebron?
Aahahah Kareem not in this picture dude.
Nobody gonna mention how friggin’ weird that photo is? lmao
