Founded in 1946 in Michigan, the Lakers were moved to Minneapolis where they took their name from the “Land of 10,000 Lakes”. In 1960, Owner Bob Short moved the team to Los Angeles and the rest is history. Between players like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Magic Johnson, the team rocketed to the top and stayed there during a period known as “Showtime” when Basketball exploded into mainstream America.

The Lakers have had sixteen hall of famers and three first overall picks in their history. With fourteen NBA titles, the Lakers are a force to be reckoned with. Last season the lakers traded Kwame Brown, Javaris Crittenton, and Aaron McKie to the Memphis Grizzlies for Pau Gasol, and a second round draft choice.

So far this season, Kobe Bryant, a long time leader, and shooting guard for the Lakers has lead the team to tie the franchise record for most wins to start the season, going 17-2. As a result the Lakers have remained at the top in the Western Conference for this season. The Lakers finished out the season first in the western division with a 65-17 overall record and there seems to be no limit to the records that the Lakers will challenge.
