Back when it was still basketball. RIP.
Mr Clutch
Now that West is gone, expect them to change the NBA logo.
Now watch them change it to a silhouette of LeBron James.
Back when America was still America.
Exactly right.
Look for some DIE change to the logo, and it won't be white, for sure.
LeBron is such a character. Such a Ham actor.
His clowning will sorta-kinda be missed when he finally retires. He stays in why? Because he enjoys the widespread attention he knows he won’t ever receive anyplace else.
Soccer teams have several Showboating players similar to him.
Thanks for posting it!
Surprised they haven’t changed the MLB logo yet.
I remember Alcindor.
what a great athlete and man. always my favorite Laker. RIP.
Which would make a damned good team for three-on-threes.

Rest In Peace, Jerry.
Person recollection: I was at the last NBA game in the old Madison Square Garden on 50th Street and 8th Avenue, in 1968, Knicks vs. Lakers. Willis Reed (not a dirty player) broke West’s nose. (It was broken eight times in his career.) I was with a bunch of high school classmates. The Lakers, who played the Celtics in the finals that year were romping, and the place was cleared out. We “infiltrated” abandoned courtside seats, behind the Lakers bench towards the end of the game. West was sitting with a towel on his bloody nose and a grimace on his face. Great memory.
