Your favorite team why do you love them so much no bandwaggongers?

I love the Lakers all Laker teams not just because we are good now but even the past few years the reason I love the Lakers is because the history and all of the great players from Kobe to Elgin Baylor to Gail Goodrich the great moments from he show time era when we first beat Boston in the finals to Derrek Fishers 0.4 shot that beat the Spurs to Kobe outplaying Reggie Miller in game 4 of the 2000 finals on a sprained ankle after Shaq fouled out we have a great list of hall of famers that no team can match we 3 of the top 5 greatest players ever are Lakers and Kobe will make 4 when he retires when have the second most championships behind Boston but there Legacy was built over one decade as we are in the mix every decade as they haven't even been to the finals in 22 years since 74 they have 3 rings to our 8 we won a championship every decade including the 90's if you count the 99-00 season as part of the 90's and Last but not least we made the playoffs 55 out of 60 years no other team can even come close to that mark the Heat have only been around 19 years and already missed the playoffs at least 5 times so have the Mavs and Magic who only been around for about 20 years so that just proves how impressive that is so what made you chose your team not trying to bash other teams just showing my love for my team
