Greatest exec in NBA history too.

@luckranger71 Better than Red Auerbach?

@eli1601 yes, considering the league was smaller in the 60s. West was responsible for both of the Laker dynasties, Showtime and Shaq/Kobe. Plus greatly responsible for the Warriors of the 2010s.

@luckranger71 He did have free agency, which Auerbach did not have. Shaq was going to LA no matter who was in charge. No argument that West was a great executive, though.
