7:40pm, 11 September 2025【Basketball】
If you want to say that the team in the most brilliant history in the NBA, it is definitely the Lakers. After all, they have the winning culture of superstars winning championships. Even if they don’t have stars, they will recruit superstars to win. They are located in Los Angeles, which also gives the team the advantage of recruiting stars. Too many outstanding stars have emerged in the history of the Lakers, and O'Neal recently forwarded the top ten Lakers players listed by the US media. Let's take a look together?
10th James
Although James is very strong, his contribution to the team may be ranked in this position, because James only brought a championship to the Lakers. You should know that the Lakers have 17 championships in history. He is the first person in the Cavaliers. He is the first person in the Lakers. He is not in the front. But to be honest, James may have helped the Lakers win more championships at the beginning, but the inaction of Pelinka and Jenny Buss made James miss more opportunities to win the championship.
Ninth George McCann
The first superstar in the history of the Lakers and the first superstar in NBA history. He helped the Lakers to lead the team to win games. George McCann helped the Lakers win 5 championships. To be honest, his era is too long and the player influence is far from enough. Otherwise, in terms of the number of championships he won, he might be among the top three in this list, and he is also a pioneer in the development of the center era.
Eighth Elgin Baylor
Although Baylor did not help the Lakers win the championship, he devoted his career to the Lakers, and was selected for the Best Team 10 times in his career and led the team to the Finals 8 times. If it weren't for Bill Russell, he might have won more honors. Speaking of which, his fate is also tragic. In his retirement season, the team won the championship and one of the best small forwards in history.
Seventh Chamberlain
After joining the Lakers, the coach joined forces with Jerry West and Elgin Baylor. During the Lakers' age, the coach gave up his previous core style of play and was willing to be a supporting role, focusing more energy on defense and rebounding. He helped the Lakers reach the finals of the finals and won a championship. Chamberlain also won the trophy of the 1st FMVP. The coach devoted all the last period of his career to Los Angeles, and completed his retirement here.
Sixth James Worcey
Worcey was the third leader of the Lakers during the Showtime period. Worcey had the strength of the top second leader, but sacrificed data and ball rights for the team. He helped the Lakers win three championships. He was not fighting for data, but when the team needed it, he was able to stand up and got an FMVP trophy. Relying on his outstanding performance, Worcey was finally recognized by the Lakers, retired as a jersey, and was selected as an All-Star 7 times.
Fifth O'Neal
O'Neal is only ranked fifth. It is estimated that many fans are very interested in the top four. O'Neal helped the Lakers build the only dynasty team in the 21st century in the early 2000s, achieving three consecutive championships, and O'Neal also achieved the feat of FMVP for three consecutive times, which is something other Lakers famous did not do. Looking at history, only Jordan has done it. Perhaps because he didn't play for a long time, he only ranked fifth.
The fourth Jerry West
logo man has led the Lakers to the Finals 9 times, but he only won a championship. Like Baylor, he has always been suppressed by Bill Russell. The logo man is the first loser in NBA history to win the FMVP. Jerry West's contribution to the Lakers is not only on the court, but also the godfather of the Lakers. The Magic's Showtime era, Kobe and O'Neal era were all created by him, which is really amazing.
Third Jabbar
Jabbar left here because of racial discrimination in the Bucks. After joining the Lakers, he won the MVP many times, but never won the championship. Until the Magician joined, Jabbar had an excellent backcourt helper. The two also led the Lakers to quickly complete their rise and won the championship in the first season of their cooperation. After that, the team won 5 championships and Jabbar won 1 FMVP trophy.
Second Magician
The Magician is able to come to the Lakers, thanks to the Jazz. If the Jazz had not traded the first round pick to the Lakers, then the Lakers would not be able to win the Magician. The Magician has excellent team leadership ability. He has led the team to the finals nine times in his 13-year career and won 5 championships. He is still the youngest player in FMVP in history. To this day, no one can break this record. The Magician won 3 FMVP trophys.
No.
Bryant, like the Magic, has brought 5 championships to the Lakers. Kobe is less than the Magician in FMVP data, but Kobe has a longer career and dedicated everything to the Lakers. Moreover, Kobe has also brought the Lakers' attention to a new level in the 21st century. He is one of the most watched players in history. Speaking of this, what do you want to say about this ranking? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
