Fuck yeah! Fill the plaza UP
🐐
Get started on Phil’s too.
I still call it the Staples Center.
Jimmy Butler you are a Los Angeles Laker
Got my “who they hiring to make these statues?!” post queue’d right up.
That’s perfect, Pat Riley knows a great statue guy. He can give the Lakers the contact info.
Better not be the same guy who made the Dustin Brown statue. Also, they better get Riley’s hair right.
Congrats to Pat man. What an honor!
Anyone remember when Frank Layden made fun of Riley’s hair by whipping out a giant novelty comb courtside?
Love it. Gotta recognize great coaching ability as well, showtime era may not have been as successful as it was without pat as coach
Appropriate. He is still a Laker legend through and through
It’s gonna look like Steve Buscemi
Worthy
Well Deserved a Lakers legend.
Got to set precedent for JJs/s
It’s gonna come out looking like Adrian Brody lol
I think they realize how the relationship soured with Jerry and want to make sure they give there flowers too pat before he passes as well.
Thought Lisa Leslie was supposed to have one years ago
Pat Riley was just as instrumental as Kareem, Magic, Jerry Buss, and Jerry West in creating the Showtime Lakers. Without any of them, we don’t have basketball as we know it today. Well deserved
Love it.
Riles definitely deserves it.
Dude this has been a long time coming. Pat Riley is the Lakers goat coach.
Damn so that means we’re gonna need one for Jackson as well. The front of Staples is gonna start looking like the Roman section at a museum with all the statues we’ll have out front.
Didn’t see this coming. It’s interesting because the Lakers were trying to get him back to the team, but when he realized he had a shot to get an unhappy shaq…
Please for the love of God don’t use the couple who sculpted the wade statue.
Long overdue.
James Worthy and Stu Lantz next to Chic next 💯
If we do this, will Miami stop sending us their old busted players
Build the JJ statue
Incoming statue of pat riley with a big butt and chubby cheeks.
With how the recent ones have been going (Cristiano Ronaldo, Dwyane Wade, Harry Kane), it’s going to be a statue of some random dude with a placard that reads “Pat Riley”.
For the love of god, hire a good statue maker.
Yall don’t now how to make no damm statue now we building em annually
