Los Angeles Lakers: The five best playoff moments since 2000

The Los Angeles Lakers are one of the most historic franchises in the NBA and the team has had countless postseason success in its long history. The Lakers have the second-most championships of any NBA team (16), trailing just the Boston Celtics, who have 17.

The Lakers also have the most stars to play for one franchise. Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Shaquille O’Neal and LeBron James are all arguably top-10 players of all-time.

That is not including the likes of Jerry West, Elgin Baylor and James Worthy.
