Bear in mind the criteria is only that they played for the Lakers at any time. Example LeBron, Robert Horry, The Mailpuss.
As well as career/longtime Flamers like Jerry West.
Writer must have been a hetero.
Kirby and Aids lovers you are not going to like this.

from article
stunning omission:
Robert Horry.
Somewhat surprising omission:
Derek Swisher.
Even with the Swisher omission, notice how the Lakers lead in proclivities:
Rodman
Dwight
Kirby
Majic
Stick to tmz related threads, gs.
Oh the Lakers are pure TMZ.
Keep bumping.
How can Howard ever be considered better than worthy or even rodman? The guy had like a few good years and was a cancer the rest of his career.
Even as a cancer, rodman contributed.
Stupid criteria. It should be based on contributions to the team. But this article needed Lebron hits I'm sure.
That said, it's needless because an argument could be made that Lebron is already top twenty for bringing back excitement and keeping the team's financials very strong.
Whoever wrote that doesn't know .
I agree but the DPOTY awards and counting numbers are going to favor Dwert over Worthy and is teh list based on them at their peak or as Lakers if as lakers Wilt and Bron are way to high ...if taking career as a whole McAdoo is over Pau and and dwight tbh
yes it's careers as a whole.
OP said criteria not based on Lakers career but overall. Pau over McAdoo. He alpha dog'd Lakers to two rings. And Dwight vs. arguably best Laker of the 80's.
Lighten up Francis.
Pau was never an Alpha, stop ...
MCadoo ws never as key to a tel as Pau was but Pau was also never good enough to carry Grizz to a playoff win or lead the NBA in scoring like McAdoo did.
He sure was good enough to carry The Greatest Beta Ever to a pair of les.
just like manu helped Duncan win more ? Without manu TD don’t get 5.
Without Manu, Tim still would have never missed the playoffs. Without Pau carrying Rapey McRapeFace like the luggage he is, Rapey McRapeFace never wins another playoff series in his career.
That's the difference between a Top 10 All-Timer and an over rated chucker who is borderline top 30 at best.
Pau leads teams to 50+ wins and makes Lakers champions. Kobe takes 30 more shots at 38 than Shaq shooting 63 FG b/c he was desperate to be alpha, basically ending Shaq's career in LA. He then was under .500 til Pau came to town an alpha'd them to rings. Or are you saying Kobe's 7-28 Game 7 is what makes the difference. "STOP"

I'm not gonna argue Kobe because I stopped that when he retired... But Pau is a great support player an elite #2..
But if you think he is an alpha you are trolling or don't know what it means... WORTHY was a great player too and the best scorer on a college and pro team... Doesnt make him an Alpha... Stop the madness
You cant argue it because Derp is actually 100% correct.
Nope, but combine an elite big man who makes the Triangle work and the Greatest Beta Ever, the elite big man carried the GBE to his rings. That is the common theme in Brick McRapist's over rated, inefficient career.
Paul did more heavy lifting in his career than Kobe ever did and his teams did better when he was the "the guy".
Nope only on Spurstalk and the house of Gasol maybe is this even considered a narrative... Anything you have seen leadership wise from Pau the past few seasons that screams alpha?!
Nicca please I guess the past few seasons KL as your "alpha" has you all ed up...
Plus Kobe won playoff games post Shaq and PreGasol... Pau was getting swept so don't be obtuse.. Kobe needed Pau and sure as Gasol needed Kobe he ain't ever accomplished without him... In the NBA
