What i don't get is people calling em the goat when they clearly are second best. 11 titles < 17 titles. And I'm not even a Boston fan.

I would assume that it's for 3 reasons
1. The Lakers as a franchise has 16 titles
2. The Lakers has 31 finals vs 21 for Celtics
3. Cats only look at the 70s and on (i.e. the Kareem era)

The times when cats could average 45 minutes per game and 50ppg, making 15 stacks a year are well not always observed.
We give Wilt and Bill their props but there where it stops :huhldup:

1. Laker fans and even the NBA didn't recognize the Lakers' Minneapolis titles till AFTER Boston won #17 . Watch those celebrations in 02. Stern even said congrats on yalls 9th title.

2. 31 vs 21? That just means the Lakers.lost more times. Boston won 17 out of 21 . LA/Minneapolis won 16 out of 31.

They still lost 15 of those times. So they were the best in the NBA 16 times and Celtics 17. :umad: not to mention the Lakers last two titles were gifts from stern/jerry buss

They lost 15 of those times, but so did Boston and that was not in a final :scusthov:.
Which means that you're either the best in the league or ass. While Lakers, aways the best in the country or half the country.

I give Cacston their props though. Dudes went ham back in the stone age.
