The Lakers have played 31 NBA Finals and WON 16 NBA Finals, have only missed the playoffs 5 times in their entire 65 year franchise history, have an overall winning % of .619 as a franchise
- They've won 4 championships since 2000.
- Their core players (parker, Duncan) still have something left in the tank.
- They have a young, good supporting cast.
I'd say they're gonna be alright. Worry about your own squad

The Minneapolis Lakers were 5-1 in the Finals.
The LLLLLLLLLLLLLLos Angeles Lakers are 11-14 in 25 finals appearances and have lost to the Boston Celtics 8 times. That's a lot of Ls and a lot of heartbreak.

4 championships since 1999
there are some teams that have been around since the black and white TV days that have ZERO championships
If the Spus had a player like Kawhi Leonard during Duncan's prime it's no telling how many titles he would have had. He's a much improved version of Bruce Bowen when you include his offense as well as his defense. Maybe with a player like him Kobe wouldn't have went off on them all those times. But still, Tim got 4 titles so his career and the Spurs team have more than been blessed by the basketball Gods.
