Vintage Lakers (Chick Hearn)

[CiEZ420]

Chick Hearn G-O-A-T RIP

[jiminlhc]

There are tears in my eyes. Chick put me to bed (or at least hiding under the covers with a transistor radio since I was 11 years old in 1961. Chick taught me the game and made me a Laker fanatic long before the games were on Television. Always a gentelman and gracious. I mourned Chicks passing and still miss and mourn him today. I hope you're calling at least heavens home games now Chick. Thank you.

[pumazpawz]

Best team EVER.

Chick is SO missed. Listening to Lakers basketball has never been the same and will NEVER been as good again. RIP Chick.

[govrom12]

That was one sick pass by Magic! Imagine if he was an NFL QB there would be a ton of receivers walking around with deformed fingers with all of those fastballs he threw!

[TheManarpaac]

@Y2p731 How do you involved bieber in this nba..this is basketbal not..basket with balls!

[Y2p731]

3 Thumbs Down = Must be Gay Justina Bieber fans.

[LAMF1968]

[aliAK13]

[cbaldwinjr]

The game is over when Mike Smrek is gettin' run lol

[Legendofzoom]

dayam .when he chick puts in the refigerator.....i have like the biggest SMILE on my FACE

[lureyourkidsinvan]

You won't see those passes anymore. That's old school ball, today's game is modern and boring. Too controlled and over coached, doesn't allow players to improv.

[Amir883]

Magic's passes are second to none. My goodness.

[runelord37]

Youll be there in my mind this year as i watch the finals chick. Chick...the undying heart of Los Angeles and our Team

[TexasBoi39]

This game is in the _____ refrigerator, the door is closed, the lights out, the butter's gettting hard, the eggs are cooling, and the jello is jiggling!.... Been jiggling for a long time! LMAO!!!

[orwellson]

@TexasBoi39 The ______ is "Admiral," a brand of refrigerator from Chick's time... Hope that helps.

[TexasBoi39]

@orwellson Thanks! I don't know why i couldn't make that part out lol

[DrAznmuff]

that was a sexy pass.

[Dodgerfn5]

Did you hear how young Stu Lantz sounds? Wow, what a difference. What a team he and Chick were. "Chick 'n' Stu"--a great dish to serve.

[mytubename3000]

Cool laker classic moments

[robotnik77]

Best announcer ever, in any sport; and he called other sports besides basketball.

I've heard him do fights to of all things, bowling. We miss you Chick. The

words-eye-view was better than TV.

[runelord37]

@robotnik77 Its hard when your spoiled from a young age with greates play by play caller in the history of the world. its been awhile since we lost him, but when I watch this it brings back all the joy and pain. His art will never be equaled. The man was a sports poet.

[jaimeheidijames]

Chicky Baby I miss You!!!!

[dnbseg]

its been jiggling for a long time!

stu sounds so young...

dam i miss chick!

[sevin6068]

[krayzi3bone]

THE GREATEST LAKERS OF ALL!!

[csipanther09]

i think LA is blesses to have chick hearn

and Vin

[veramann]

It seems nobody knows what the salary of Chick Hearn was. Wow, what a mystery!

[oneand238]

Great Clip! YouTube needs more videos of chick putting the game away...

[415Riggs]

lol  look who they are playing..... the welfare of the NBA suck kings.... had to steal our hockey teams name... pathetic!!

[LavaLampBlob]

Man just don't see one armed baseball whip-the-ball-inside passes like that these days.

[415Riggs]

@LavaLampBlob tell me how many tattoo's u see? nahh j/k i dont know if u will ever see another 6'9 point ever again. Magic was the NBA

[drumbago]

everytime I hear Magic Johnson's name, I always think of him at this point in his career - goateed, young, quick and strong.

[415Riggs]

@drumbago he was the michael jordan of the nba for along time just couldnt do pretty dunks and have cool shoes. MAGIC was the greatest ever

[mrwillieike]

The reason this was posted is because of his signature saying: Its in the refrigerator, etc...

[newgecko]

Chick was the greatest !!! RIP

[ridwan24]

greatest voice in all sports history

[415Riggs]

gosh oh geez the real lakers playing the pathetic kings. or the decent kings playing the lakers. or the reallllly good kings playing the lakers....... dammit same result. they are not a rivalry!

[kareemali]

magic is the greatest no one today can even come close to passing like that

[fastbreak777]

yeah, thats what i remember about Chick. if the Lakers played badly, he would just talk shit about them. Chick used to piss me off sometimes. But hey at least he tells it like it is, no bullshit from him. other announcers are just such big homers

[walker51735]

Somewhere in heaven, Chick must have a smile on his face knowing the Lakers just won their 15th NBA World Championship this summer.

[resinbomb]

chick was the man all time best of all sports

[DouglasMikelas]

bin' jigglin' for a long time!

[shonjuan11]

I, too, live in WA State(bellingham) and I, too, miss Chick and Vin.

[sivvybee]

Thats right!

[hellrazor1969]

Its in the fridge!!!

I`m gonna miss hearing that when the Lakers finish off the Magic.

[perpetual61]

I now live in washington state and I'm glad I got to hear chick before his passing ! I miss hearing him and Vin Scully calling Dodger games !

[zidane81]

vin scully still calls dodger games lol...dont miss it too much...

[456max321]

tHAT'S JUST LIKE i REMEMBER AND MISS!!! Watch L.A. Lights by The Watering Fish Project it's about Chicky Baby!

[FiLiPinOPriDe3443]

if chick was still alive the lakers would of won..

[MrBennetzen]

Which was better: Johnny Most or Chick Hearn?

[Dietpepsivanilla]

Hands down Chick was better. He wasn't a homer like Johnny Most. If the Lakers were playing badly, he tell it like it was. Most would never do that.

[tnrc75]

RIP Chickie. Love to Marge.

[Messenger33]

Mmmn... that makes me hungry...

[jimistreets]

"This ball game is in the refridgerator. The door is closed . The light is out. The eggs are coolin'. The butter's getting hard, AND THE JELLO'S JIGGLIN'!!"

[westup1213]

[stakebeddriver]

I miss Chick, he was the best!

[AEMoreira81]

That end announcement is just classic...I have to keep playing that.

[iridespinners]

[pockings]

This game is in the refrigerator......and the jello is jiggling, and its been jiggling for a long time LOL. God, I miss Chick. RIP Chick ;)

[SGTCross39]

Lakers can tap all your teams' asses. Tell me, which team is most entertaining? the Lakeshow. That's who. 14 time champs. And most respectable franchise. Home of 4 MVP's. Shaq, Kareem, Kobe, and Johnson. Let's bring back the Showtime era. And whip That Celtic ass in 09. Get ready to get swept boston.

[DJJamminC]

I canNOT wait for that to happen. 39-point ass-whooping last year?? Guess who's going to open a can of whoop ass on the Celtics in '09? And I assure you, IT WON'T BE PRETTY.

[naruto121897]

i heard you!!!

[larrysigep]

Jesus Christ...so thank you bionicbigfoot and ishmaiden for trying to prove who's got the biggest balls in sports trivia. no one cares. chick we all miss you. rest in peace

[Shocka161]

All im saying is....

that was a sick pass.

[bionicbigfoot]

That Chick idiot is dry, boring, and contrived. But what a pass by Magic....

[ishmaiden]

That "idiot" is in the hall of fame. Where you in the grand scheme of things?

[bionicbigfoot]

Celtic Pride, baby. That makes it 9-2 all-time. Oh, how sweet it is. See you at the Garden when we raise #17 in Novemeber...

[ishmaiden]

iRISH NEED NOT APPLY ! THIS IS ABOUT HEARN AND NO ONE ELSE. FUCK THOSE SPUD EATING MICS! I FIND IT FUNNY THAT SO MANY ARE CLAIMING CELTICS AFTER ALMOST 20 YEARS OF ABSENCE.

[bionicbigfoot]

Yeah, I'd be upset and humiliated as well if my team simply refused to compete in the Finals...other than with cheap, flagrant fouls, that is. Best sign at the Garden: "Kobe Can't Do Jack Without Shaq". ahhh-hahaha! I repeat: Celtics Pride, baby! #17, sweetest of all. Complete, utter dismantling of the vastly over-rated Fakers!! Boston Celtics: THE most successful franchise in the history of American sport. And there's not a thing you can do about it! Gonna have to deal with it, chumly. hahaha

[ishmaiden]

Again, the question was what did you do and not your team. I'm not in the hall and no for sure that your are no where near it either. This is an owed to a sports broadcasting icon. However, if we were to venture to other subjects like teams, maybe you'd like mention that the NEW YORK YANKEES ARE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL AMERICAN TEAM WITH 26! Boston fans don't like to mention that fact do they? You mentioned 9-2, right. Well, here's a stat for you: 18-1 perfect season. No spying needed!

[bionicbigfoot]

An "owed"? Surely you meant "ode", you oblivious little simpleton. See, we here in Titletown USA not only dominate professional sports, but we lead in education as well. And the Yanks' 26 crowns span well over a century, moron, whilst the Celts' 17 banners have come in a scant 62, making them The Most Successful Franchise in American Sport. As for your icon, well, anyone calling himself "Chick" has gotta be hidin' something, dontcha think?? Typical Fakers rant. #17...ah, how sweet it is.

[ishmaiden]

Spell check switched it, but I think you should be the last one to mention spelling or grammar here. Dontcha think so?  I'm not a NYY fan, but 26 is still more than 17. Any real sports fan knows the Yankees are the standard for the most successful franchises. You're not even second either, as the Montreal Canadiens have more championships than the Celtics, Patriots, and Bruins combined. In addition, yes the Yanks choked, but it was not a WS title, like '86, which was blown 3 times!

[ishmaiden]

By the by, Green Bay, Wisconsin is TITLE TOWN USA, you fucking thief. Call your town what you want, but don't steal other cities monikers. I see stealing isn't just a Patriot thing either. 18-1 and stomped by the G Men! 3rd Super Bowl Championship and not tainted. How sweet it is for Giant fans! A perfect upset!

[bionicbigfoot]

Stomped?Hardly.I had Plaxico on my Fantasy Team,and I told all my NE brethren during the season that if his ankle ever got healthy,the G-Men would take it all.Truth be told,the Pats are #4 on my NE list & I'd trade in all the recent champs for a Stanley Cup.Well,except the Sox in 04,because my dad got to see em win.I dislike the new arrogance among new fans around here,lots of new Yuppie transplants with no roots in Boston,acting obnoxious and privelaged.Not me:I remember Bias & Buckner.

[ishmaiden]

But thats' just like a NE fan, showing no class and thinking he can match up with real cities like New York or LA. I don't go around shitting on Red's tributes or Johnny Most's. Boston deserves their victory, but wtf does it have to do with this video? It so happens that my families from New York and still remember a little roller that got behind the bag and behind Buckner's legs. The sweetest of all monumental chokes. Mention the '04 Yanks, but that wasn't a WS title with one strike to go

[bionicbigfoot]

Why would you shit on Red or Johnny? Red's the sole architect of the Most Successful Franchise in American Sports History, like it or not. Johnny was a WW2 hero prior to his unparallelled broadcasting career. Billy Buck wouldn't have beaten the speedy Mookie to first anyway, as any real fan knows. And sorry, NOTHING compares to '04, Yanks up 3-0, and...well, you remember. Ahhh-hahahahaha. It's OK, just admit you're jealous of Titletown,USA, and Boston will go back to ignoring you. aaaahhhhh-haha

[KoffeeNut]

people who say "overrated" are overrated. You don't get to the finals being overrated, the celtics were just better.

[ishmaiden]

I am a Laker fan, but that doesn't up to the better team. the Celtics had built this squad for this year and did it, although 10 playoff losses to do it. The Lakers weren't even supposed to be in this one at all and it it took Boston 6 games to finish them off. I wonder what will happen when the Lakers have a strong Bynum back and another year of experience for them to draw on. Boston is built for the here and now, whereas the Lakers are building for the next 5.

[ishmaiden]

that doesn't mean I can't give it up to the better team*

[bionicbigfoot]

Yeah, the Celtics had 10 playoff losses in their march to a record 17th NBA title; however, the Fakers, unlike the Celts, had 4 losses in a single series. Now which series was that again....oh yeah! ahhh-hahahahaha Greetings from Titletown, USA! Glad you're not here!  mmmm-baaaa-hahahahaha

[bionicbigfoot]

You say the Fakers weren't supposed to be in The Finals at all, yet how comw every "expert" pundit had LA in 5-6?? Listen,like I originally said,I LOVED Magic's Lakers. An all-time team & part of the greatest rivalry in NBA history.I simply said I find Chickie boring, but so what?I grew up with Johnny.They're different,and I happen to perfer Most.What do you care?I also dislike Kobe the Rapist and Gasol the Weak,but I respect the Laker franchise,just as you have to respect the Celts as a fan.

[walker51735]

Don't worry, Andrew Bynum has gained 20 pounds of muscle in the upper body and that will help him with the type of basketball play that we will expect out of him this season. Remember he was doing exceptionally well last season before his season-ending knee injury. He was even being considered for the NBA most improved player of the year award. With Bynum (7'0") and Gasol(7'1") in the lineup, the Lakers have a legitimate frontcourt that teams fear, including the Celtics.

[bionicbigfoot]

people who say "overrated" are overrated.

Guess that makes you overrated then, eh pal? Nice logic, you idiot.

[ZyphonZest]

is that stu lantz with chick hearn?

[pockings]

"It's been jiggling for a long time" LOL. I love Chick Hearn's refrigerator's bid. RIP Chick, I miss you ;)

[mightyfedepxress]

Chick would have loved to seen this Laker team!

[KiNPiN1835]

RIP Chick

[bionicbigfoot]

Really? You think so? Chickie would've loved to see this Faker team completely, utterly embarrassed by the 17-Time World Champion Boston Celtics?? Wow, he's even more of a douche than I realized. Bye-bye, Chikadee! hahahahaha

[jo0k]

shut the fuck up.

[arcticheat24]

classic hearn

[Dietpepsivanilla]

The Jell-O's been jiggling ever since.

[Nick00035]

RIP Chick we going to beat boston for you

[bionicbigfoot]

3 to 1.

[bionicbigfoot]

You are? You're going to beat Boston for Chickie? Ummm...yeah...about that....

[LEECH44]

R.I.P CHICK.....GO LAKERS!!!!

[MCPunjabi]

stu lantz is the next chick.....rip chick

[darealthang42]

that was a disgusting pass

[bulldog8588]

We love you chick, rest in peace

[cowboysrnumba1]

R.I.P. Chick

[BronzeLats]

Is the video of where he says the game is over and the Suns came back with under a minute to play to beat the Lakers in youtube? That was after Chick making his statement about the butter being in the fridge and so on.

[IPE86]

wut the fuck

did he say he was fouled by Odom

sum shit huh

[BigBoyBato]

not Odom... he said "Oldham" the center for Sacramento at that time. Had like a 10 day stint with the lakers too the next year. I think his first name was Jawaan or Jamaal... something like that

[oneluvsnow]

miss you CHICK R.I.P...

[AmeriKenny]

terrible defense.

[salvador36213]

wdf are you talking about

[AmeriKenny]

I don't know if you've played basketball in a league before, but I was always told by my coach to keep my hands up in the air on defense. Players at all levels of basketball know this. That just was a bad possession by the team on defense. That's why Magic was able to feed the ball that easily. Those kinds of feeds don't happen any more in today's basketball. The talent level is so much higher now. Magic may find playing against todays players much more challenging.

[Patequi]

Magic may find playing against todays players much more challenging.

Either you're an Earvin Johnson hata or you don't know caca about b'ball

[vombomb]

Nevermind the fact that Magic was 40 feet from the hoop or that he is 6'9''. Idiot.

[JTDutch]

RIP Chick Hearn ... you're a legend, bro.

[sylar1000]

I miss you Chick. Youll always be in our hearts !!! LAKERS FOREVER !!!

[blackout7888]

damn i havent heard that in forver i remember that as a kid with eddie jones early shaq days aww =[

[cantthinkofone21]

ALL Lakers fans miss you Chick!!! RIP

[resinbomb]

dang I miss him too kcal 9 was the shit when I was little!

[sark14]

I can't put into words how much I miss him. Especially now that our team sucks and all this turmoil is going on with Kobe!

[CousinShavey]

The game's in the Refrigerator. The door's closed, the light's out, the eggs are cooling, the butter's getting hard, and the jello's jiggling.

[lpkchaka]

[3chrds]

[regluke]

[Lakersguy21]

"jello is jigglin been jigglin for a long time" damn i miss that

[walker51735]

The greatest basketball announcer in basketball history professional, and amateur. PERIOD. RIP, Chick.

[lovelymess]

Yeah his voice actually sounds like a bouncing basketball. "Majic with the dribble drive, over the middle to worthy back to Magic now Scott back over to Worthy SLAM DUNK!" He was the best.
