For all of the formative years of my youth (and most of my adult life) the Golden State Warriors were nothing compared to the Los Angeles Lakers.
From the Showtime Lakers to the Kobe era, it seemed like everything went right for that team. Fans across the world cried foul when they traded for Pau Gasol, the commissioner of the NBA had to step in to stop them from adding Chris Paul - it’s a team that has been stacked with talent and always had people pining to join up with them.
