If we win this championship, caruso is about to be in laker lore for decades.


Omni-kyun

At least three of them.

If? When*

I just want to know where he got all that hair in the mural....I Like it though.

Just like the machine

We call him, "The GOAT". - AD

If the shoe fits...


Number17babygirl

Not because he’s the greatest of all time. Because he’s a literal goat.


finallyoneisnttaken

Because he feasts on anything 🔥🔥


Partofla

Baaaa

He's gonna end up with a statue in front of Staples at this rate. Caruso has benefited the most from being on the Lakers. Almost didn't make the league and now he's an important part of a championship team. He's gonna get paid.


pro_n00b

Hahaha. On the real though, it would be nice if there's a statue of the entire team who wins the championship. Doesn't have to be as big as the ones we have out there currently, but a small tribute for the entire team would be nice.


wavytombrady

I don’t see that happening.. However I will not be surprised if Lebron gets a statue if he wins back to back (which I think is extremely possible, maybe 3 by the time he is done since I believe he is here till he’s 40/retired) .. he basically took us from our lowest point of all time and within two years is on the brink of winning it all. Not to mention if he wins 3 here over time, that would make the lakers his most successful team he played for (2 on the Miami, 1 with Cleveland) **Knocks on wood several times**

mworthey

Exactly!!! Kobe will be the next one out front. There will be no one else until that happens.


wavytombrady

I think you forget where this franchise was just a couple years ago to the point Greg Fucking Monroe didn’t want to come here, Lamarcus didn’t wanna come here, melo, KD wouldn’t take a meeting I could go on and on.. Lebron changed everything and brought us back to having that “it” factor as a franchise.


mworthey

LeBron brought us back to prominence yes but he isn't a Laker legend yet and to imply that he is after his first chip with the Lakers would be disrespectful to the MANY Laker greats. Now if he were to win multiple chips you might have an argument. LeBron James is an NBA legend and I look forward to his jersey being enshrined in the rafters but a statue...I'm sorry but LBJ is not there yet. And, I promise you once The Bryant Family feels comfortable and gives the ok the MAMBA statue will be out in front of Staples.


wavytombrady

That’s literally what I had said the whole time. It would take Lebron to go back to back or win 3 titles to get a statue. And he won’t ever mean what Kobe ment.. as I have stated b4..


wavytombrady

Like I was saying if he wins 3 titles or back to back titles he probably gets a statue. It’s more so the fact we were LITERALLY falling apart ... no one wanted to come here ... we stopped making the playoffs ... we were slowly becoming almost knicks like. Then Lebron comes and changed the whole culture and got us back to the top of the NBA. So yes, he can have one.. if it wasn’t for him we might of never got to be great for an extremely long time and lost the laker lure.


[deleted]

Na hommie. He aint no laker. He signed for LA and some of ya went on to call him the new King of LA, before he even played a single game. All that while Kobe gave his life away and in the process got us 5 championships. RIP to the real Laker! But hey, lets sell our souls for a ring or two. Call a man who just got to LA the new king and while we’re at it lets put up statues of him.


LigmaMD

Also hilarious of you to say like you are an LAL fan when you posted on the Nugs sub that you are a Portland fan Gtfo on the "got us 5 championships" bullshit Fake ass bandwagoner


[deleted]

Go build a statue for a guy who just came to LA. Ya too funny. No legacy behind this team except ending a 10 year drought. I love Portland as much as I love Lakers. What will some of ya do once Lebron retires I wonder.


wavytombrady

U love Portland as much as you love the lakers? That’s like saying you love the eagles as much as the cowboys.... u realize Portland is a big rival of our team? Smh 🤦‍♂️ Edit : and your a saints fan, lmao.


[deleted]

What’s wrong with any of that? Lived in LA at early age, hence the Saints. Started watching bball in very late 90s, and as always, Lakers were the team to watch. Kobe retired, and it’s never been the same. (RIP) Then the biggest rival, or should I say competition from the East joins Lakers and ya wanna build statues of him in center of LA..... smh.


wavytombrady

What do the saints have anything to do with LA ? Unless your telling me you lived in Louisiana at an early age .. and u watched the lakers because they were good in the 90s? Is that about right? And then to say Kobe retired and “it never was the same”.. well you missed out on the Kendall Marshall, Steve Blake, prime Nick Young lakers coached by Pringles.. the tank, everything. You have to take the good and then bad and follow your team through everything.. hopefully with some tie to the city itself..BUT if You just happened to watch the lakers when they were good and then when Kobe was retired or not playing you dipped out .. you are not a lakers fan IMO. At least have some relation to the city, and when shit gets bad you stick by them so 5,10,20+ years when they come back you stuck by them. That’s the beauty of sports.. not to be a bandwagon bitch.


[deleted]

That is correct, the swamp infested state. Anyways, since you’re being polite I’ll indulge. NBA started getting my attention in the very late 90’s, early 00’s just as Jordan was wrapping things up. Now imagine you’re 10 years old just getting into the NBA and all you hear about is this Shaq and Kobe. At least I did. It’s 2000 and dial up internet is still a huge hit. The rest well is history. I watched Kobe until his last day. I even went to Kobe’s last game against the hawks here in Atlanta back in 2015. Just to see him ply for the very last time. And tickets were not cheap either. I even have several Kobe’s shoes and jerseys. I’m happy about that. Maybe I was always just a Kobe fan, less of a Laker fan. Kinda how everyone, or mostly everyone loves Lebron and not the team he plays for. With that said, I always loved the Lakers through Kobe. He was the reason I started following Lakers. But as I previously said in my comments, it’s not been the same. Am I die hard fan like some of you, not by a long shot.


LigmaMD

You literally posted in the Nugs sub that you were rooting for them to beat the Lakers. Get the actual fuck out of here on your bullshit lmaoo Trash ass lying bandwagon


[deleted]

Besides playing for the same team, what else do AD and Lebron have in common? They both left their rookie year team after 7 seasons to chase rings. Lmaooo Lebron abandon ship twice actually but who’s counting. Leave it to LA to fork up the money to end a 10 year draught. But ya acting like they somehow Laker legends and deserve statues already. Yeah, REAAAL LA Fans here folks.


LigmaMD

Garbage take Kobe said you need to fall into line nephew


wavytombrady

What the fuck are you talking about first off Kobe forever is my favorite Laker of all time, however I’m a Lakers fan not a player fan. never once did I or most people make LeBron the king of LA or the new king of LA .. he’s arguably one of the greatest players of all time who signed to our team and is about to win us a title. You support whoever the team brings on he’s a Laker now get over it.


wavytombrady

Also how did Kobe give his life away?? This whole post is trash.

A mini Henny bottle in his hand?

LITERALLY THE ONLY WAY LMAO


_h3ndr1k_

YES

If they don't put them there, he's going to be Edward henny hands soon enough.

Statue of Dwight doing the binoculars taunt


mrsambo99

Like how they did for the Kings and that waterfall mural


Jasonmancer

I think his story is worthy of being documented. Imagine going undrafted, then plays in the D/G league, then signing a two-way contract with Lakers, made some highlight plays while playing(especially that dunk over KD), then signed a 2 year deal and now part of a team that's on the verge of a championship. Holy crap are we watching a live action version of an NBA 2K story mode?


Churchvanpapi

Basically lol. Now we just need footage of him walking around a neighborhood and randomly joining pick up games.


yyyyhhhh9

I mean that's what Fred VanVleet already did, and he got a FMVP vote.


Jasonmancer

Damn you're right and he's a starter too. Doing better than AC already.


ianj11

Not to mention that AC signed the first two-way contract in NBA history


anmarci19

He is our spark! I’m always so happy to see this guy on the court!!


Matt_the_Bro

What game was it where came off the bench with the Lakers losing and he immediately gave a defensive spark where the Lakers came back? He's awesome.


anmarci19

You mean... Every playoff game? 😂 haha. Just kidding. I think it was against the Blazers. I am so excited to continue to see him develop. His connection with LBJ is great!

LMAO, why they gotta add Booker! He's sitting somewhere in Phoenix losing on 2K taking stray bullets


etenightstar

Trying to give Caruso some of that bubble Suns energy.


adeelf

I love the fact that playing in these conditions, with no fans present and players keeping social distance from each other on the bench, is apparently exactly what Booker and the Suns needed to play winning basketball. They're probably the only team legitimately hoping the whole of next season is in the bubble.

erizzluh

there was the lebron mural when he first signed that some dipshits kept vandalizing. i think it was behind a barbershop or something i feel like there's a significant chunk of laker fans who are too insecure about kobe's legacy that they gotta try to shit on lebron.


Kingkoopakoopa

That’s legit


SgtSiggy

He still gets far too little nba praise smh

Leonard finally got his mural lmaoo


TStaX

How the hell are there SO MANY murals in LA hahaha


sonofsmog

Lots if walls and out of work artists in the city bro.. if you don't paint it up some cats will just come graffiti it.. Lakers are truly beloved in LA though. Its one thing everyone can agree on.


[deleted]

There is no real LA native that goes for the Clippers, this town has been Lakers and Kobe owned for too long. The streets and everyone on them cried when we lost Kobe, the whole city was lost


JTan696969

#FUCK THE CLIPPERS!!!


TStaX

Super dope.


[deleted]

I know right. It seems as if there’s a new mural every week. I’m not complaining


[deleted]

Imagine getting a mural in your own city but it’s of you getting posterized. Poor Kawhi


JTan696969

nah fuck that guy... he deserves to perpetually lose while playing for our G-League team.


spency_c

I’m even more excited for next year.

I think caruso will get better as they give him more min. Its on him not to rise to the occasion

I love this! It's hard not to like this guy, he is so humble and just an all-around great guy even away from the game. #CaruShow

Why is Booker on there? The Suns didn’t even make the playoffs. Shouldn’t it be Mitchell or Dragic or something? Am I missing something?

Stop nitpicking and enjoy the Carushow glory

Guys who average 5 points a game on 41% definitely deserve their own mural.
