Jerry West and the Record Season: 1 Championship |
In the middle of an era dominated by the Celtics, Jerry West lost 8 NBA Finals with the Lakers, 6 at the hands of Boston, but he never gave up and
his perseverance was rewarded with a Championship in the 1972 season. He was the leader of the team that set the stil-standing NBA record of 33 consecutive victories and a then-record season of 69-13, only broken by the Bulls of Jordan in 1972. |
