The Laker franchise was founded in Detroit before moving to Minneapolis where they won 5 league championships within the various leagues before locating to Los Angeles. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Lakers popularity soared, with superstar players Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and coach Pat Riley winning five titles in the that span, with 3 championship series against their arch-rivals, the Boston Celtics. In the 2000s, the trio of coach Phil Jackson, Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal brought three straight championships before falling apart, culminating in O'Neal being traded to the Miami Heat. Only Bryant and Jackson remain from the champion years. Most recently, the team finished 42-40 in the 2006-07 NBA season, Jackson's worst record of his coaching career. Source wikipedia
