My thoughts and prayers go out to the Buss family. As owner of the Lakers organization Jerry Buss brought 10 championships to LA. He also had a win percentage of 66% and the Lakers were in the finals 48% of the time since he was owner. He knew how to entertain and also knew what it took to be successful. Thank you Jerry Buss for all you have done for the Lakers organization you will truly be missed! - SpaceRAYnger
