Los Angeles Lakers History
The Lakers are one of the most storied franchises in all of sports. They boast 19 conference titles, 35 division titles and 17 NBA Championships. The 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 West Coast team. After several trips to the NBA Finals and trading for Wilt Chamberlain, the Lakers won the NBA Championship in 1971–72, an amazing season that included a 33-game win streak, which is 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 fellow Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the Lakers won the NBA Championship in Johnson's rookie season and a total of five titles during the '80s.
The Lakers were led to three consecutive titles between 2000 and 2002 by the legendary duo of Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, 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.
Following the postponement of the 2019-20 NBA season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the team won its most recent NBA Finals in 2020 in the NBA Bubble behind Finals MVP LeBron James and All-Star forward Anthony Davis. In 2023, the Lakers won the inaugural NBA in-season tournament.

Watching baseball game in USA is always amazing and unforgettable. Worth every cent.
My only issue was they wouldn't let me bring in my clappers! Wish I had known that in advance.
Houston raped lakers at home. It was quite noticable that kobe and gasol did not play,neither did dwaight howard for houston
One of the best experiences I had in all my life! You have to do it!
That was mi 1st NBA game (I'm italian) and the only word that I can sue ti describe my experience is AMAZING!!! Entert in to the stadium was so quick! All the shops were good (in Italy we don't have shops pr fastfoods into the stadium). The match was incredibile! Inside, the court, the illuminations, the music are perfect!!! I will certainly recommend it to my friends!!! Only 1 thing was bad: the prices of the fastfoods!
What a fantastic event in a fantastic venue! The Staples Centre is gorgeous and purpose built. Easy to find, very organised and easy to get in. When inside, there was a huge choice of food and drink and no queues! The actual game was brilliant, with good screens everywhere to get more detail on the game. Amazing atmosphere as well with good music and cheerleaders keeping the crowd pumped up
Going to a Laker game is always an event. The game, the Laker girls and all of the fun planned during timeouts make for a great night out.
The atmosphere, stadium, and quality of the basketball was awesome. It was a competitive game, entertaining to watch, and the extra-curricular show (cheerleaders, kiss cams etc.) was also very entertaining. For the price was a decent evening out! Would recommend
Very nice and fun i like the interaction with audience
The game was good and i went for the opposing team so we were kind of sad but the seats were good and nachos were awesome and we enjoyed it all.
My first time in Staples Center, it was a great time for me.
I was my first time in an NBA Game, I was surprised to see a live game
Great game. The narrator could be exciter like Heat's one.
STAPLES Center has the best modern amenities of any venue I have been to. The sound system is great & if there is any place to watch a concert, it is here. The fact that LA Live is right across the street is an added plus.
Booked these tickets last minute. Great seats, value for money!
Good venue. Good seats. Lack of energy from the crowd was disappointing as we are from Chicago and sporting events are full of energy and crowd participation.
The experience of just being there to watch such evenst is awesome! I would love to go back again .
The Spurs are on a roll this season. Great game. I love watching the big games at the Staple center.
I NEVERS HAD TICKETS RIGHT ON THE FLOOR, CLOSED TO THE PLAYERS, I ENJOYED VERY MUCH!!1
Very good game played by the Spurs but also Bazemore from the Lakers did some interesting plays together with Gasol.
