Johnny Bus has never forgotten to celebrate the 2019-20 Los Angeles Lakers champion.
The 2019-20 NBA season will be remembered forever due to the Covid-19 pandemic as the world has changed forever.
As a result, the NBA had to be smarter to complete the season.
That’s where the final few games of the regular season and the full playoffs of 2020 were held. When it was all said and completed, the Los Angeles Lakers left the bubble after winning the No. 17 in franchise history.
Purple and Gold launched the 2025 NBA postseason campaign, losing money at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
While that’s not a great start, Lakernation remains optimistic about a franchise that could potentially lift the glorious Larry O’Brien Trophy at the end of the playoffs.
If this hope becomes true, it will be the Lakers’ first NBA championship since 2020. Speaking of teams that year, team owner Johnny Bass recently made a big announcement about the championship roster.
“You can’t even think about it in your mind. We have an opponent in the first round. We’re past the first round and we’re not going to have anything for granted,” Bass said.
“But certainly, if we’re so lucky to win another championship, we’re going to try and honor the 2020 team that didn’t get the chance to do that because we weren’t given the order,” she added.
The world was still recovering from the coronavirus pandemic when the Lakers crowned NBA champions.
As a result, the 2020 Lakers didn’t have a championship parade, but Bus guaranteed they’d plan something for that roster.
Fans have always been split into the format of the 2020 NBA postseason, as there are no fans in the arena.
After all, it eliminated the concept of home and away games as all playoff teams are restricted to the same location.
As a result, many believe that the Lakers’ “bubble” ring is not as important as the regular title run. Meanwhile, others believe that Orlando Bubble has announced an exceptional level of basketball from players.
Either way, LeBron James and La Lakers came to the top, bringing extra scrutiny to this format. But whether you like it or not, that ring is just as realistic as any other ring in NBA history.
