I've lived in Southern California my whole life and the Los Angeles Lakers is as much a part of growing up in Los Angeles as the foggy air and never ending traffic stop is difficult to control. They are technically one of the best teams in professional sports history and certainly one of the best in the NBA. Los Angeles Lakers have the highest wins of any NBA team ever, captured thirty-three straight games in 1972 season, their ironic streak that began the next game after the NBA Hall of Fame forward Elgin Baylor stepped into his official retirement from playing.
As a little girl who grew up in the eighties I used to sit glued to the television while admiring the Lakers won five NBA championships in the span of nine years. Spurred by the three Hall of Fame players: Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and James is worth, I grew up watching Pat Riley became the Los Angeles Lakers all-time number one coach, earning the most wins of any other coach in both the regular season and playoffs game. I even remember the night Bush won the presidential election in 1988 came secondary to anger the Los Angeles Lakers in the courts.
Lakers always remain at the forefront of the NBA's best. Today they hold the highest salary of any other team in the NBA, a feat that requires loyalty and support of their loyal fans and endorsers alike. The Lakers also currently holds the record for winning more than any other team in the National Basketball Association, making a total of 2970 wins in the close season in 2009. Along with the record for most wins from the record the highest winning percentage, came on a 61.7% winning percentage.
Even if you are not from Los Angeles, every basketball fan can appreciate the honorable record of an elite Los Angeles Lakers. They have been to the NBA finals thirty times; another record that no other team that has been touched. And, in the history of the Los Angeles Lakers franchise, there are only five seasons in which the team does not make the playoffs, resulting in 15 to win the NBA Championship. They came in second only to the Boston Celtics, who won the seventeenth NBA Championship, the most recent of which we all watched as they struggled against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers remain one of only three teams to never lose sixty games in one season. So, as one of the best teams in sports history to take on another season, I can not help but wonder if the Los Angeles Lakers, as is usually well armed with the NBA no matter what decade, will seamlessly take the title of their sixteenth NBA Championship in 2009. s their NBA Championship in 2009.
