The rivalry between the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics has been one of the most talked about rivalries in NBA history. The victory for the Los Angeles Lakers was more special because it was against the Boston Celtics, admitted star player Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant himself was one of the key factors throughout the finals. In game 7, he finished with 23 points. He was assisted by another star Pau Gasol whose tally included 19 points and 18 rebounds. These two players are expected to be the centre of attraction during the Lakers parade 2010.

The Lakers parade 2010 is set to begin at the Staples Centre and move south on Figueroa Street to Jefferson Boulevard. The expected crowd is around 2 million and thus the Lakers Parade has been given a two mile route to allow the fans to see their favourite players. The players and their families will be waving at the fans from atop their double decker open air buses and will be led by the Lakers Girls. The commuters have been advised to use the Metro rail to reach the venue rather than driving down to avoid traffic problems.
