News about, Hall of Famer, Jerry West’s lifetime-season-tickets being revoked is spreading fast. Jerry West was a part of the Los Angeles Lakers for 14-years and was part of, in quite a few people’s opinion, the best teams ever assembled to date. From 1971 to 1972 the team was unstoppable, having scored an average of over 12 points more per game than any other team during that season. He helped in making taking them to the All-NBA First Team 10 times. Moreover, West played a critical role with his executive work that account for the Showtime Lakers of the 80’s and the Kobe-Shaq Lakers of the early 2000’s. Jerry West was undoubtedly an asset to the team, on and off the court, and pushed the team to have one of their most famous seasons to date. West was later gifted and promised lifetime season tickets, by Jerry Buss, to see the team he was a part of compete for as long as he was willing to support them. However, as of recently, the Lakers have decided to revoke those lifetime season passes. They did not notify him prior to taking this action, and he only found out when his wife received a text message from the management. Unfortunately, it seems the Laker’s appreciation for one of their old MVP’s has run out due to him supporting another Los Angeles team. We feel the actions taken upon our old Hall of Famer, Jerry West, were more than unjust. We’re hopeful the management of the Lakers chooses to admit their decision wasn’t the best course of action for how they were feeling at the time.
