Orlando Magic get home court advantage due to better record
They only have one home court, Staples Center. The Lakers play 41 home games, not including "road" games against the Clippers and playoff games.
The LA Lakers and the LA Clippers both play at the Staples Centre. They are able to do this because the floors that the Clippers and Lakers play on is a removable and moveable floor that disassembles just like blocks of lego. Therefore when there is a Lakers game and the Clippers floor is out, then the staff at the Staples Center just switch them out and now its the Lakers home court.
The Lakers have home court advantage during the 2010 NBA Finals because they had a better regular-season record than the Celtics. Los Angeles was 57-25; Boston was 50-32.
The Lakers originated from Minnesota, and there are a lot of lakes there. Hence, the name Lakers.
The Los Angeles Lakers won the NBA Finals in 2000.The Los Angeles Lakers of the Western Conference took on the Indiana Pacers of the Eastern Conference for the title, with the Lakers holding home court advantage.The Lakers won the series 4 games to 2. Lakers center Shaquille O'Neal was named the Most Valuable Player of the series.
Detroits out. But if they made it, Detroit would get it. They won more season games.
The Lakers coach is Phil Jackson.
Because his contract will be up and he could fit in with the lakers both financially and on the court
Then they would play each other. The court would change from the Clipper's court to the Laker's court each game and vice versa. Due to the intense popularity of the Lakers, both courts would technically be a home-court advantage for them.
From the Land of 10,000 Lakes, hence the name. Minneapolis, Minnesota was their home until 1960 when they moved West.
