[@magron1987]

Met Jerry West 10 years ago when he was in vacation in Italy, asked him for a picture and told him that he was my father's favorite player. He brushed it off and said he wasn't even the best player in his team. Then he told me and my brother stories about Elgin Baylor and Wilt for 10 minutes. I coudn't believe the humbleness and the kindness. One of the very best players ever, and one of the very best GMs ever. And an even better human being. RIP to the logo.. Another two stories from the same trip i forgot, he told me he visited the Colosseum every time he visited Italy because Gladiator was one of his favorite movies 🤣 And he told us to enjoy every single win in life, small or big, be proud of everything you accomplish, because he was so obsessed with winning that losing haunted him, he said he was always thinking about his losses and it didn't let him enjoy life fully. He really was one of the GOATS..

@@your_fathers . On Wilt: he said that in all his years he had never seen a better athlete than Wilt. He said that he is the strongest player in any era and that no one could match up with him physically. He said that only Bill Russell could get in Wilt's head to take him out of the game. On Elgin Baylor: he said that Elgin was one of the purest scores ever. He compared him to George Gervin and KD, but that he played with intensity and fire like Kobe. He said that if you disrespected Elgin he would drop 50 on your head (his words). He said that if you gave Elgin what these players have today (trainers, nutritionists, chefs and shot gurus) he would have scored at least 40 a game. And then he just left, i had like 50 Kobe questions that i'll never get to ask. But he is the coolest.

He was the man who saw Kobe's talent and traded for him, it's very fitting that he chose him with his first pick. Him picking Kobe, Wilt, & Elgin was kind of sad, as all of them are people he knew and was very close to, all of whom passed away. When he got chosen at 15:55, he gave the most genuine thank you.
