Los Angeles • Thousands of fans cheered the NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers during a victory parade Monday that players promised to repeat next year with a third consecutive title.
Police reported a largely well-behaved crowd. Nine people were arrested for various minor offenses and two children were reported missing, police said. The crowd was estimated at nearly 70,000.
Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, Derek Fisher, Andrew Bynum and Ron Artest waved to the throngs from a flatbed 18-wheeler as fans yelled and snapped pictures. Many people along the two-mile route waited hours for a glimpse of their heroes as they rolled past in a convoy that also included double-decker buses and fire engines.
The hour-long parade capped a season that ended with an 83-79 Game 7 victory over the Boston Celtics on Thursday and a 16th NBA title for the Lakers.
Team members vowed to play hard for a 17th championship next season.
Artest, who donned a top hat with purple and gold feathers and sported an unlit cigar during the ride, said the team plans to buckle down. “We have to party for another week, then start putting in the work and write history again next year,” he said.

They have had a really good run, but I think it will be over next year.
