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.

Lakers didn't play well but the overall game experience was a good one.
Great atmosphere, great match, everything was great.. No words to describe that, really...
great experience! better support for veterans would be nice.
The Staples Center is a fantastically well designed arena for basketball game. The logistics behind a LA Lakers game is remarkable and there is not one single moment when you are not entertained. Seats viewability (even at the top of the arena) is very good for an affordable price. A must see for any tourist in the LA area.
Always a good time at Staples when watching my Lakers.
I am upset that I was charged full price for an obviously poor seat. (see below) I bought this ticket the first day available and I got the least desirable s. eat.
Absolutely great experience! The seats were very close, good price and the experience is unforgettable. Lakers won!
Good win. Great giveaway... Love the Jamaal Wilkes jerseys we were given... Go LAKERS!!

Kobe was super great and Lakers was amazing! The score was close, so it's so much fun to watch the game. Also, it was a really really exciting game. I strongly recommend this event to everybody.
Loved our seats in PR10, great way to spend Christmas Day with my family. Variety of food options and easy entry/exit via the VIP entrance. Loved our Laker scarves!!
