Imagine this dude with a 3pt line. That jumpshot is pure beauty.

He was not just a great shooter. But he was a really good defender, a good passer, and a good rebounder for a guard. And man he could get that shot off so fast.

If Jerry West is a "plumber" or "electrician" then I wanna be just like him

West retired in '74. Jordan began his college career in '81. 7 years difference. Basketball eras aren't as far away as you might think.

I saw West and Chamberlain making opposing coaching staff go crazy back in 72.. good old days

Blessed to be old enough to have seen him and Oscar in their prime. Unbelievable.

I never knew. West played before I was born but watching his play exemplifies everything about basketball. Fundamentals, teamwork, form and movement to name a few. I now know why they call him Mr. Clutch.

Jerry West was a 6'5" (shoes on like all rookies were measured from '73 on) guard that did so many things on the basketball court at a high level but it was his shooting that set him apart. No guard in NBA history has had a quicker pull up jumper or was as clutch with it. Mr Clutch has tried to teach modern players how to shoot the pull up jumper like he did but nobody has been able do it as well. I mean, Jerry was lethal with that shot. He could hit it going left or right and he would give a hard dribble and jump as the ball came off the floor, seemingly propelling him higher. Because it was so quick and Jerry had good hops, he didn't need much space to get it off and it was extremely accurate, especially when it mattered most. Jerry West's pull up jumper is one of the greatest signature shots in the history of the NBA. 💪👏

He lowkey had one of the prettiest shots I ever seen 🔥💪🏾🏀.. I believe if you put him in any Era, he'd still put up crazy numbers with that jumper

I remember that 55 foot shot he made against the Knicks during that playoff game. I was 13 at the time and I almost fell out of my living room chair!

He was unique. There will never be another West.

Its a shame the nba doesn’t do more to showcase Wests eras greatness. Thank you.

No one has mentioned that he had twitch and above average speed and quickness that I think made him special amongst his peers. Imagine if he had today's training he would absolutely thrive in today's game

Mr.clutch can save the world

Has to be the originator of one or two dribble pull ups, either hand. Literally watching what mj was saying, when he said he got his moves from Dr j and Jerry west. Salute.

That guy perfected that wrist release. That's why he became the model for shooters generations after him.

Time after time Jerry is at the top of his jump before the defender can even react. My God he was quick!

Imagine jerry west in todays game.. He would fit right in

his jumper was so crazy he could shoot off the catch off the dribble fadeaway whatever and it just looked good too

Jerry West was a total bad-ass. Only player to win an MVP award playing for the losing team in the NBA Finals.

That right hand pull up 😮‍💨

Watching West, he was one of the best at creating his own shot. If he’d played with the 3-Point Line, he would not have been a spot-up shooter. I’m old enough to have watched him play and he would literally take over games, offensively and defensively.

Loved watching him play back in the day!

Here giving the legend his flowers while he's still with us

Been waiting for another one of these great highlights to be released. The possibilities on what players to upscale footage of must feel endless. Gus like Elgin Baylor or Nate Thurmond or Walt Bellamy and many more. Enjoyed this video and I'm stoked for the next one.

He was simply incredible

Plays like a modern point guard, so ahead of his time

Jerry was a pure weapon

That Jumper is the 5 star standard

Damn, that Shooting form is beautiful

Foobas is back! Welcome back Foobas! Much love for your projects! 🔥

Purest scoring ability of all time

I have been waiting for a Jerry West video in 4K… Thanks Foobas! ❤

Most underrated player ever. Like Jordan, he has one of the most aesthetically pleasing playstyles, his jumpshot is so pure. He was unlucky to win only once, and had he had a 3pt line he might have been the best player of his era.

Just a great player. And fun to watch people try and stop him.

Pure talent. Give me the ball and let’s see what happens. Pure confidence. Love that man. Oh yeah born to score

he's the pull-up man jumper game

The Logo, The Legend!!

Julius Earving Dr J video needed!

Wtf his dribbling to shooting is so quick.

One of the most iconic clutch shots ever, even if Chamberlain didn't get all the way out of bounds.

What I would give to see the first game of the 1969 finals,Lakers versus Celtics. West scored 53 points.

It’s crazy how well he can shoot in all that traffic

When Wilt the Dipper himself set screen for you to shoot, you know you're the real shit.

I remember watching West when he was at College the team had an out of bounds play with West getting the ball at the top the key and he never seemed to miss. He was special.

My favorite player.

such a beautiful shot

I ain’t gone lie. The LOGO might be the GOAT. Dude pulling up off the dribble CASH like it’s nothing. 25,000 points in 13 seasons NO THREES is BEYOND CRAZY 😮‍💨

Thx for work!! Jerry West legends!!

Congratulations Mr. West for the third time as an executive!!!!

He is the Origin of Mid Range basketball. Clutch

bro thx u 4 postin dis💯👌🏾after dis whole jj barea thing sum a yall need 2 remember jus how kold da LOGO was in his prime🤞🏾😮‍💨

Amazing, just thank you for that!

Epic. Never really seen him play

With his defense as good as his offense and his playmaking and rebounding being elite for his position, he’s top 5 ever easily

Insanely quick release on his jumpshot. Deep knee bend and hard last dribble but he springs up super powerfully and flicks it lightning quick...

There was a carry-over rule back then. Imagine what he could of done off the dribble without it?

If they had 3 point line back then , he could have been the first steph curry

THE LEGENDARY JERRY WEST!!!!!!!!

Welcome back sir, another great video🙏🏀🙏🏀🙏🏀

Hes game is Poetry in motion.... hes the LOGO for a reason! Could make the argument for greatest Laker ever.... Todays game with 3 point line its all over....

My GOAT

This channel is incredible. I’m a historian of the game and cannot get enough of these. Excellent video top to bottom. A few random thoughts - what year was that clip of Jerry playing on a court with a 3-pt line? NBA/ABA All-Star game maybe? The shot before that was very reminiscent of Kobe’s 1-dribble pull-up, as seen in the 2010 finals on ray Allen…and people say these players couldn’t play today, how little they know. Amazing to see these black and white highlights in color for the first time. Do you do the color yourself?

Been a little while! Welcome back! The Logo!!!!! Amazing!! Thank you very much for this & your future projects 🙏

His handle was so basic yet he couldn’t be stopped

He is still the only losing FMVP to this day (10 october 2022).

Jerry could really shoot, and knew how to get to his spots.

I just easily got 60 points with jerry west on 2k24 ... thats why im here ..

He needs some more respect like praise

He was so good,they had to invent an award to give to him. The Most Csluable Player . Still the only player on a losing team to get the award.

He was awesome Celtics wer unbeatable

Look how he is rising up on his jumper he would absolutely kill today plus a quick release with range I always say no matter the era greats play in there gonna be great cause great players know how to adjust

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Jerry was like me, the greatest off all of that time

Dog, to tell Kobe effing Bryant, "yo, i know you're black mamba, but I'm a mongoose, we eat y'all for lunch." And that's him as an old man. Jerry West was an absolute BALLER. Lockdown defense, pure water with the jumpshots, fast, prescient passer. He was Steve Nash offense with Gary Payton defense

soft yet quick release on that mid range jumper was deadly

The logo

GREAT VIDEO SIR!!!!

Clean dribble no shouvle or steps

Best scorer of the 60s. Yes that means over Wilt too. He's the only player to average 40ppg in an entire playoff run of multiple series.

How is it that the quality of Jerry west footage is so much better than Wilt chamberlain's old film or even Larry Byrd's old films. WTH

This dude really decided to be Michael Jordan before Michael Jordan. Legitimately the best scorer of his era.

02:01 the logo!

Most players in this era would barely make the g league even with modern training, west is not on one of them. Special talent

If the 3pt line was around when he played, I wonder who would've retired at the top? 👀

I see where Kobe got some of his game from!

Most important laker ever

To all curry fans - if the 3 Point line existed back then , jerry west would probably hold really hard 3 point records to break , including point records ... One of the most lethal shooters ever !!!

I don't know if I've seen a player that looked that confident on the pull up jump shot. Maybe Pete Maravich.

Micheal stole his jump shot

He was Larry bird before Larry bird

Do John Havlicek next

Make a Pistol Pete highlights! Please!

His quick release reminds me of Klay Thompson.

👍

Real talk he is the second best 2 guard to play. His numbers are way better than kobes

AS A KNICK FAN, THAT SHOT FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COURT IS BURNED IN MY MEMORY

Da logo

Reminds me of Josh Giddy but with a sweet looking jumper
