Will the Lakers surpass the Celtics in NBA championships?

With the addition of Gasol, the Lakers now have one of the best line-ups in the NBA, Bryant, Odom, Bynum, Fisher, and Gasol. The Lakers might not win a championship this year, but I do think that they will pick up a championship next year and maybe a few more the other following years. As of right now, the Celtics have 16 NBA titles and the Lakers have 14. So, is it possible that the Lakers might surpass the Celtics in titles in the next few years?

Will the Lakers surpass the Celtics in NBA championships?nba salaries

NO LAKERS SUCK COME ON GUYS

Will the Lakers surpass the Celtics in NBA championships?nba playoff ,nba teams

YUP!! They will win in 6 and take back their championship to LA!! I think the Celtics might get one, but the Lakers are creating a better dynasty. Kobe will be the best in the NBA for about 8 more years and Bynum will soon be the "Next Shaq" (not to say that D. Howard won't), and Gasol will be a Laker for life and be a Worthy/ Pippen type!!! So, if the West doesn't get stronger (if LeBron James doesn't come to the Warriors) the Lakers should be able to get 3-4 rings in the next 8-9 years!!!
I don't think so the Celtics will win this Year in the NBA Finals so that will be 17 Titles still more then the Lakers.
Right now, it's difficult to project if the Lakers will surpass the Celtics.

The Lakers have only played 1 game vs. the "New and Improved" Celtics. And.. they lost... badly.

But now, with the addition of Gasol, and the may-be return of the improving Bynum, they might have a good match-up, if the Lakers can play some Defense.

Celtics are looking for their first championship battle in a couple of years. Lakers are looking to get out of this slump they've been having.

All in all, I can't wait until the 2nd game of Celtics v. Lakers. It will probably (I hope) be a good match.
u dont even no if there going to be champions or even get through that far but yes i think they can
I think yea within in the next 5 years.
Fisher is old Odom is overrated. Celtics are playing great even without Garnett. Celtic will represent the east and the West belongs to the Spurs . Duncan ,Ginobli, Parker,Barry, Bowen, Finley,Oberto, Stoudimire, Don't Forget Bowen always guard kobe pretty tough. Defense wins championships. sorry Fakers give Kobe what he wants a trade to Chicago for Ben Wallace LOL!!!!!
the lakers by bfar, the celtics are so over rated as of right now
No, i don't think the celtics or lakers will win the nba title. and people, the celtics are not over rated, they have the best record in the nba, only lost nine games, and they are undefeated against the west, come on, over rated. give me a break.
