Best Experience Ever
This was my first game ever, my husband’s second game. We have been lakers fans for a long time. my husband longer, Kobe was our favorite now LeBron. Mine is DLo!!! We got good seats at an affordable price through ticket master. The game was amazing, they won against Milwaukee. Dlo won the game wink wink!! They played a spectacular game, worth every penny. This experience is priceless, can’t describe how much we will remember this day! The camera tries to get everyone on their screen. The snack bars are fully loaded with a great variety to choose from. We had so much to drink, drinks were nice and cold. The hot dogs inside the venue are delicious.

Too much music
Crypto.com Arena - Los Angeles
It’s been a while since I came to a game, and I’m not sure I’ll be back for one any time soon. I’m there for the basketball, not for the DJ, not for the light show. The constant music made me go the bathroom, get toilet paper and stuff it in my ears. My head was pounding by the second quarter. There’s just no need to have music going nonstop. It doesn’t add anything to the experience. It just makes it impossible to hear the announcer and talk to your friend. So bad that I likely won’t come back to a game in person.

Exciting
Crypto.com Arena - Los Angeles
It was a wonderful experience, so much energy and entertainment and of course the great game. I did feel sad I did not spend a bit more for better seats. Difficult to assess if you never been before.

Good
Crypto.com Arena - Los Angeles
Experience was good overall but could be improved. Crowd outside around Kobe statue was chaotic before and after the game. It would be helpful to have one line for the visitors to view and take pictures with the statue and not block the walkways to the entrance.

What a game
Crypto.com Arena - Los Angeles
It was such an exciting game between the Lakers and the Nuggets. It was historical to watch LeBron James hit his 40,000 point.

Los Angeles Lakers History
The Lakers are one of the most storied franchises in all of sports. They boast 19 conference titles, 33 division titles and 17 NBA Championships.
The Lakers franchise started in 1947 as the Minneapolis Lakers in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and predated the official founding of the NBA. At the time, the Lakers were a member of the National Basketball League (NBL). They moved to the Basketball Association of America (BAA) prior to the 1948-49 season. After that season, the NBL and BAA merged to form the NBA. The Lakers dominated the newly formed NBA, winning five of the first six NBA Championships.
Two big decisions in 1960 altered the future of the franchise. First, they selected Jerry West with the No. 2 overall pick in the NBA Draft. Then, the franchise moved to Los Angeles in the same offseason, becoming the NBA's first team on the West Coast. After several trips to the NBA Finals and trading for Wilt Chamberlain, the Lakers won the NBA Championship in 1971-72, a magical season that included a 33-game win streak, still the NBA record for most consecutive wins. West would go on to become a Hall of Famer, and his silhouette is featured as the NBA's logo.
The Lakers' next era of dominance began in 1979, when they selected Earvin "Magic" Johnson with the No. 1 overall pick. Johnson's unrivaled passing ability allowed the Lakers to play with an up-tempo style that became known as "Showtime."
Led by Johnson and Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the Lakers won the NBA Championship in Johnson's rookie season and won a total of five NBA Championships during the '80s.
The Lakers dominated the league again starting in the 1999-00 season, this time led by the legendary duo of Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant. They won three consecutive titles, including a run through the 2000-01 playoffs that saw them lose just one game in four series.
The franchise entered a short rebuilding period after trading O'Neal in 2004, but Bryant led the Lakers to three consecutive NBA Finals appearances once again, starting in the 2007-08 season. They lost to the Celtics in their first appearance, but responded by winning the next two championships, the second of which came in seven games against the Celtics. Bryant retired in 2016.
In 2019-20, the Lakers made the playoffs for the first time in six seasons, with the top seed in the Western Conference. The Los Angeles Lakers ultimately ended up winning the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat in six games for the Lakers' 17th championship.
The Lakers 2021-22 season did not end with a championship, but the team did make it to the playoffs, losing to the eventual Western Conference champions Phoenix Suns. While injuries to stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis helped derail the 2021 campaign, the future for the team and the franchise remains bright.
