Many fans refer to Gary Vitti as a Lakers legend. He doesn't describe himself that way - but it is well known that he has worked with many legends over his 32-year NBA career. During his tenure as Head Athletic Trainer, the team won 12 Western Conference Championships and 8 NBA Championships. When he started in 1984, he was a one-man show, the first person at practice and games and the last one to leave. Since that time, iconic film and photos dot the media from network highlights to magazine covers. The job went beyond health care to personal relationships with some of the greatest champions to walk the planet.As a fixture on the first seat of the bench you can imagine, Vitti has seen, heard, and been part of unforgettable achievements and historical defeats. Gary gives you a behind the curtain look, sneak peek from a vantage point he calls, "the best seat in the house." Either on the court, on the road or in the locker room, he delivers story after story from lessons he's learned on happiness, leadership, greatness, and the ever-evolving technology of sports science. In his straight forward storytelling, Vitti allows us a bird's eye view into the heated rivalries of the greatest professional Basketball match-ups fans have ever seen. Not just the athletic prowess of Hall of Fame greats like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, James Worthy, and Byron Scott but personal insights into all of them. Experience the intensity and benevolence of Pat Riley. Realize the business savvy of Lakers' owner Dr. Jerry Buss and General Manager, Jerry West, as trades are made and dynasties are built. Strap yourself in - enjoy the ride!

Genuine and well written Well written and easy to read. Sincere and thoughtful vignettes of experiences and lessons learned that were entertaining, passionate and driven. Loved the read.A true look at the inside! This is a great read! I also had a ringside seat being married to a GM during the time Gary became a member if the NBA. I had the pleasure of sitting poolside on a few occasions. Gary is a real person, what you see is what you get! He is always smiling and gracious. He is spot on in his opinions of the NBA. Being with a true dynasty as long as Gary was with the Lakers, dealing with two coaches as intense as Pat Riley and Phil Jackson, not to mention the players, is not an easy job! We all forget these players are just kids and need guidance. I can’t imagine what his eyes have seen in all his years in the NBA. He needs to write another book. This book was an fun read! Please write more Gary! You’re talent for telling stories is great!Next best seat While Gary has the best seat in the house, he invites us to be on the inside and sit right next to him...You will feel the highs and lows, laugh, and maybe wipe away a tear. A born story teller, we are lucky to have him open up!
