1960's, though you can argue the co team of the 1980's, 5>>>3 in favor of the Lakers.

I think it would have been an interested debate if Larry's legs didn't start fading in the late 80s. Right after losing to Detroit in 6 Games, early in the next season he went in for surgery and missed the whole year so you know the year before at least they were starting to go. If Boston had won that series and then beaten the Lakers it would have been 4 a piece. And that may have set up the ultimate tiebreaker for the end of the decade '89 Finals. Oh what could have been.

Celtics are still the best franchise in NBA history. If the Lakers pass them than that will change but as of now that crown still has to go to Boston.

no the total amount of rings you have only matter when your talking about the best of all time & Kobe vs LeBron.

Laker fans insist that when it comes to who is the better franchise it's just Lakers BECAUSE...they said so lol.

ESPN ranked the Lakers, although, as I said, last year people would say Boston because of the return to glory. So that debate is always to be continued. Look for the Kobe lead Lakers to get title 18 for us...  :) Phil got his 10th titles as a Laker coach, and that makes me feel sooooooo good. Now all we need is a player that can win 12 titles...  8)

winning a majority of the titles when there was about 8 teams in the league kinda ruins your argument, SPICE..LOL

Not when there were periods of times when you were just as bad as you were good....how does consistency not factor into your equation? I dont get it?? ???
