Will miss seeing him on the sideline as well. I remember him driving out of Staples in his teal colored 4runner.

TWO LEGENDS!

How Athletic Trainer Gary Vitti ‘Popped’ Kobe Bryant And The Lakers To A Championship In 2000
Quote:
Before Game 4 of that series, Bryant said, “I could barely walk and [Vitti is working on] my ankle and all the sudden you just heard this loud ‘pop.’ We just looked at each other and said, ‘OK, this is either really good or really bad.’

“I start walking around and I said, ‘Damn! You fixed it. You fixed it!'”

Man 2 eras coming to an end on the same day with Vitti and Kobe retiring. I think Kobe and Gary deserve a mini farewell parade. Maybe they can have it and all the 80's Lakers can give Vitti his props and Kobe can say farewell to the regular Joes as oppossed to the millionaires at Staples.

I was always impressed with how Gary handled Magic's HIV diagnosis. Vitti will always be one of my favorites.

Bummer, I had hoped that Vitti would get to ice someone up or set a broken bone tonight.

Good Ol' Arash. Always getting the hard hitting stories...

Kellerman made fun of him being a Clipper fan last year and he denied it, even though he got paid to cover them. Just suck it up for a paycheck dude and when a spot opens up on your favorite team just roll yourself over there and cover them!
