A record number of back-to-back wins

The list of Los Angeles Lakers wins is far too long to detail here, but a few key events should help put things into perspective. Founded in 1947 as the Minneapolis Lakers, they were already winning their first NBL championship in 1948. A switch to the BAA saw them take five championship titles in six years, and they entered the 1960s as the Los Angeles Lakers with an impressive streak of finals appearances. By the time the team was seventy years old, Los Angeles Lakers results included 23 division titles, 31 conference titles, and 16 championship titles - only the second-most behind their major rivals the Boston Celtics. Other franchise records include the longest-ever winning streak (a whopping 33 consecutive games in the 1971-72 season, which eventually culminated with a championship win) and a total of eight NBA Most Valuable Player awards, given to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, and Magic Johnson.

See Los Angeles Lakers players take on their major rivals

While the Los Angeles Lakers-Boston Celtics rivalry is thought by many to be the best in the NBA, the City of Angels' team is also the focus of several other deep-seated competitions. Clashes with the Detroit Pistons brought out a fierce rivalry in the 1980s and early 2000s, and they have also regularly come up against the powerful and determined San Antonio Spurs. More unique, however, is their rivalry with near neighbour the Los Angeles Clippers, who in fact share the Staples Center, the Los Angeles Lakers' home arena. Despite sharing their city with another major league team, attendance at Los Angeles Lakers fixtures is extraordinarily high - since 2008 they have sold out every single home game and have averaged around 18,900 fans, including several high-profile celebrities. With legendary names and dramatic action on the court, there's certainly enough glitz and glamour in this team to make them worthy of Hollywood, and you certainly won't regret your decision to watch one of the most famous clubs in the world playing live.
