OK combination ranked first! As the offseason deepened, the US media clutchpoints also selected the top 10 duoes in the Lakers' history based on their latest performances, among which James and Doncic, the new and old super giant duo, were selected.

No doubt, the top position belongs to the "OK combination". Kobe and O'Neal are not only the best duo in Lakers' history, but also one of the most dominant duo in NBA history.

O'Neal was at the peak of physical, psychological and experience. He was completely unstoppable in the inside line and was a big killer forcing the league to modify the rules. The young Kobe played the perfect second-in-command role.

This makes the two the first pair of duoes who can lead the team to complete three consecutive championships after Jordan and Pippen, and no duo has been able to accomplish this feat after the two.

Second place: Jabbar and the Magician

If it weren't for the three consecutive feats of the "OK" combination that were too dazzling, Jabbar and the Magician would have the achievements and qualifications to top the list.

The two led the team to win the championship five times during their joint efforts, almost dominating the 1980s, and led the Lakers to create a famous "Showtime" era.

Whether it is personal influence, or team leadership performance, it allows this new and old combination to have enough capital to occupy the second seat, and it will be difficult to surpass it for a long time in the future.

3rd place: George McCann and Pollard

As the super duo in the early stage of the league, George McCann and Pollard won the championship five times, establishing the first dynasty of their own for the Lakers and also establishing the Lakers' position in the NBA.

4th place: Kobe and Gasol

Kobe is on the list for the second time. This time he is on the list with another big man with a completely different style from O'Neal.

After O'Neal left, Kobe was promoted by the Lakers and became the leader of the team, but his achievements in leading the team have always been undesirable. Even if he brings his personal offensive influence to the extreme, he still cannot make the Lakers enter the championship ranks.

The frustrated Kobe applied for a deal, which forced the Lakers to get Gasol through a "robbery" deal. The two then won the championship twice. Kobe completed his self-proving while also establishing his position as a historical star.

Fifth place: The joining of West and Chamberlain, the superstar Chamberlain, has added another highlight to the Lakers, whose roster is already gorgeous in the team history.

More importantly, the joining of this super insider allowed West, the only loser in NBA history, to finally break the crownless curse.

The rest are ranked as follows: James and Davis, Kobe and Odom, West and Elgin Baylor, Cebaros and Van Exel, James and Doncic.

It is not difficult to see from the specific list that Kobe holds three seats alone, which shows his importance to the Lakers. His career as one person and one city can be regarded as a model for professional athletes.

Although his duo with Odom did not achieve much, it also helped the Lakers spend the most difficult time after O'Neal left and did not turn around and leave, which is also an important core of his Mamba spirit.

Another player worth paying attention to is James. Compared to Kobe, who played for the Lakers one by one for 20 years, the Lakers are the third team in James' career, but he still occupies two positions on the list.

First, it teamed up with Brother Davis to win the park championship, allowing him to achieve the feat of "winning the championship with all three teams", and also allowing him to build momentum to attack the position of Jordan, the first player in history.

The second is to join hands with Doncic in the 24-25 season. The two have a big enough position, but because of their short cooperation time and no achievements have been made, they are selected by the top line. If the two make some achievements in the new season, they are expected to further improve their ranking.
