Avery Tooley on Top 10 Lakers

The moderate-conservative blogger writes: "Because they’re in the Finals again, and because they’re the first basketball team I ever really even cared about (but I never loved them like I loved the Knicks), here are my top 10 LA Lakers, in some semblance of an order.

1. Magic
2. West
3. Kareem
4. Shaq
5. Kobe
6. Worthy
7. Wilt
8. Baylor
9. Cooper
10. Rambis (not really, but I just liked seein the horn rims come off the bench.)

This is not so much in order of overall basketball greatness, merely their level of play as a member of the purple and gold. And while I’m on it, I cannot stand the Lakers’ white uniforms. Their gold home uniforms are classic. I grew to accept the newer version, but the Magic version (without the hot pants) was probably one of the best jerseys in all of sports history."

Booker Rising response: Good to see that the Magic pulled through last night. Will they tie up the NBA championship series against the Lakers?
