The Lakers are the traditional strong team in NBA history. Many legendary superstars have been born in the history of the team. This is why the threshold for retiring the Lakers jersey is high. Even if it is better than James, it may not be able to enjoy such treatment, and if you want to To build a statue, the Lakers’ standards are stricter. In history, only Logo male, Baylor, Magician, Kareem and O’Neal have statues. The difficulty of leaving a name in history is very high. Today, some American media have selected the best team in Lakers history. Let's see if it makes sense!
The first is the point guard. There is no dispute that the Magician must be selected. The rookie season won the FMVP. This record is unprecedented, and I am afraid that there will be hardly any comers. Magic's rookie season is the 79-80 season. At that time, he led the Lakers to defeat the 76ers in the Finals. According to statistics, the Magician has won 5 NBA championships, 3 FMVPs, 3 MVPs, 4 assists, 2 steals, 12 All-Stars, 10 All-NBA teams, and NBA history. The recognized first point guard.
Looking at shooting guards, Kobe naturally has no suspense. Bryant has dedicated all his 20 years of NBA career to the Lakers, which is a good explanation of what one person, one city is. In terms of honor, Bryant brought the Lakers 5 championships, 2 FMVP, 1 MVP, 2 scoring champions, 18 All-Stars, 15 All-Stars, and 12 All-Defensive Teams. Actually In addition to honors, Kobe’s contribution is also influential. Taking the domestic situation as an example, Kobe used to be the favorite NBA player of domestic fans. Said that when participating in the Beijing Olympics, almost all the fans ignored him and James, and shouted Kobe's slogans.
Next is the small forward position. James was selected. In fact, there is another outstanding small forward in the history of the Lakers. He is Elgin Baylor ,Baylor mainly played in the 1960s. He averaged 38.3 points per game in his peak season and 27.4 points per game throughout his career. However, Baylor suffered a big loss without a championship, and the number of other honors is not very prominent. For comparison, James is the Lakers. Brought a championship, this alone is enough to be selected as the best small forward in team history, not to mention James is an active player, he has a higher probability of winning another championship for the Lakers. Secondly, the exposure and commercial influence that James brings to the Lakers cannot be ignored. In summary, it should be reasonable for the small forward to choose James.
The power forward is very interesting. The American media believes that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar should be on the list, and the center is the center, but this will overlap with O'Neal, so the center competition is fierce and the center is not well-received. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was placed at the power forward position, and O'Neal was the center. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the regular season scoring leader in NBA history. He played for the Lakers for 14 seasons and won 5 championships for the Lakers. His unique sky hook has now been lost.
In the end, the center, O'Neal was selected. Many legendary centers have been born in the history of the NBA. But if you talk about dominance, O'Neal is definitely the first. The Shark at his peak can be called an insider big killer. If he wants to, scoring is easy. O'Neal played for the Lakers for 8 seasons, during which he won 3 championships, and both were FMVP status. At that time, his combination with Kobe swept the league and was recognized as the strongest duo in NBA history.
