Los Angeles Lakers record since the 2011 season: 573 wins and 620 losses. GOAT Franchise? :flabbysick:

[Mister Terrific]

New York Yankees

1,257 wins and 967 losses

Boston Celtics

644 wins and 460 losses

Dallas Cowboys

121 wins and 101 losses





Looks like San Antonio and OKC gonna be on top for awhile. We might go 2 decades with the Lakers being irrelevant outside of the NBA conspiring to gift them super stars?

They have a championship in that time frame

Franchise has been dead since Kobe popped his Achilles, that's a fact. Hopefully this little deal of Jeanie being "President for 5 years" is just a PR move and Mark actually starts making decisions now

Nah even before that. Kobe was hooping to save the season, they still get pounded in the playoffs that year.

I would ask you what the record is since 2011 for your favorite NBA team, but just like all the other LeGBT groupies, you have a favorite NFL and College Football team but for some strange reason basketball took you on a 23 year cross country odyssey following one man around and sucking his dikk.

The Dallas Cowboys of the west

They had their down years since the end of Kobe’s career until LeBron, which was 6 years of misery. Not exactly news.

Word?

So I guess it wasn't Lebron who ruined the Lakers.
Finally a coli breh puts the blame square on that tendon

The misery. I like that.

2010-11: 57 wins (Lost in Semifinals)
2011-12: 41 wins (Lost in Semifinals)
2012-13: 45 wins (Lost in First Round)
2013-14: 27 wins (Missed Playoffs)
2014-15: 21 wins (Missed Playoffs)
2015-16: 17 wins (Missed Playoffs, Kobe's last season)

To be somewhat fair, a lot of these GOAT franchise labels are applied when they had a significant lead in overall championships.

The Montreal Canadiens, Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Yankees....they all had a ton of success either before Free Agency, League Expansion, League Maturity...or some combination of all three.

Maybe football had the most championship "parity". While there were pockets of dominance (the Packers in the 60s, the Steelers in the 70s, the 49ers in the 80s, and the Cowboys in the 90s) you didn't have any franchise with like...10 more titles than everyone else.

In the NBA, Boston and Los Angeles stand out but they aren't taking 4 out of every 5 titles the way they did in the 1950s and 1960s.
