After their move to Los Angeles in 1960, the Los Angeles Lakers featured Hall of Famers Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, Gail Goodrich, and Wilt Chamberlain.  Although the Los Angeles Lakers made another finals appearance in 1991, they spent most of the 1990s fielding teams that were not considered legitimate championship contenders.  In 1999, the Los Angeles Lakers brought in Phil Jackson as the new head coach and the result was a run of three straight NBA championships.  It wasn't until 1972 when they strung together a record 33-game win streak that they were able to secure their first championship as the Los Angeles Lakers.  The Lakers began in 1946 when Ben Berger and Morris Chalfen bought the Detroit Gems of the National Basketball League and relocated it to Minneapolis.  The Los Angeles Lakers are a professional basketball team based in Los Angeles, California.  The Los Angeles Lakers are notable for having the most wins, the highest winning percentage, the most finals appearances, and the second most championships.  The Los Angeles Lakers weren't able to win another championship until the arrival of Earvin Magic Johnson in 1979.
