When Kareem got traded to the Lakers, was there more buzz than when Gretzky got traded? hell no... not even close.

you don't know **** mak.
you only grew up in l.a. when kareem and gretzky played here.
kswizzy on the other hand studied fan reaction on youtube videos.
kareem only played here almost 2 decades.
he only won 3 national titles for UCLA and 5 championships for the lakers.
gretzky was here for 7-8 years playing a sport few in l.a. care about on mediocre teams while winning nothing.
clearly gretzky town.

i'm from l.a. you ****ing moron.
it's not a hockey town.
kareem played at UCLA and the LAKERS.
#1 pro sports team and #1 college team in l.a.
he meant more to l.a. fans.
especially since he won like 50 titles for bruins and lakers.
the lakers already have jerry west and magic statues. the next in line after that would have to be Gretzky who was the biggest name in the 2nd biggest sport in the city.
Go to the white part of town and ask them if they know more about Kareem than Gretzky.

this is how stupid you are. gretzky already has a statue at staples.
the kings owner owns staple center.
and nhl is not 2nd biggest sport in l.a. whether you're white or not.
king is behind lakers, dodgers, bruins basketball, trojans football, bruins football and trojans basketball.
in fact there's still more raiders fans here than kings fans.... and raiders left l.a. 20 yrs. ago.
kings hockey is same level as clippers or even galaxy soccer.
you don't know anything so just stfu.
