Mr. Clutch was so good at basketball that the NBA put his silhouette on its logo, then spent fifty years refusing to admit it. He made 14 All-Star teams, won Finals MVP for a team that lost, and as an executive built Showtime and talked Shaq and Kobe into the same locker room. He was miserable about nearly all of it, which is the most Lakers thing imaginable. The logo can finally stop dribbling.
