I wanted them to think about the Lakers and he accomplished his goal and this man has turned a city into Laker fans I mean this city loves the Lakers and adore the Lakers but it was because of Dr. Jerry Bust and his vision it's going to be hard when you lose legends like Chick Hearn and Dr. Jerry Bust but Dr. Jerry Bust where do you go from here I hope that his kids keep the franchise in the Bust family because that's what their dad would want I hope they never sell the team and God bless them I love them thanks
