NBA Finals: Lakers vs. Nets
« Reply #255 on: June 12, 2002, 08:05:26 AM »
They are no dynasty. You can ramble about how they\'re the most dominant team in the league, but that\'s far from the truth. The Dominant teams don\'t just do it during the playoffs. Sure, you say that\'s exactly what Michael did, just turned it on for the playoffs, but if you didn\'t see during that dynasty, they set the record for most wins in the Regular Season (72-10, anybody?). The Lakers were a 3 seed in the playoffs this year, and were clearly vincible.

I still personally think the Kings should have won that series, but the Lakers got a lot of good breaks, thus, they are here sweeping the weak team out of the East, and the Kings are not.

They\'re the pieces to the next great pitching rotation of our time, what else?

Shaq and Kobe were injured for about a total of 30 games during regular season, reason for 3rd best record

All this about kings being a better team, didnt they blow a 24 point lead in game 4?

Pacers pushed bulls to 7 games,  jazz pushed bulls to 6 twice, does this not make them a dynasty?

The lakers have not faced a formable foe in the nba finals all three times, look at it this way, when jordan won all six of his titles the teams in the west were still very good, magics lakers, trailblazers, barkleys suns, malones jazz, so the lakers have had no real test, the only test they had was there own conference.

did the trail blazers take the bulls to 7 games?  I remember the fourth quarter, bulls were down by 14

Nope, Chicago beat Portland in 6 too. The year before that they beat the Lakers in 5. Then after Portland they beat the Suns in 6 (anyone remember that game? That was my first bsketball memory, and i HATED it). Then the Bulls won their next 3 championships in 6 games. When they beat Seattle, Seattle had Shawn Kemp in his prime and Gary Payton. Then the Jazz, well you know who they had.

I think the Paxon shot was bigger. It ended the Finals. Horry\'s shot was in the middle of the series, even though it did keep the Lakers alive.

Lemme just say this about the lakers.  As much as I hate them, they will be a dynasty.  There is no dening that statement.  Now you can argue which "dynasty" was the best wither it be the lakers, bulls, but if i had to choose it would definatly be the celtics....i mean 10 championships in 13 years....that is sick

Yeah, the Celtics probably had the best. Then I\'d say the Bulls.

Paxson, shot, SCORE! THE BULLS HAVE TAKEN A 2 POINT LEAD! With 6 seconds left, Bill Paxson has given the Bulls the lead!

That\'s the only play I saw of the game...I was outside biking during that entire game, came inside, and that\'s what I saw :)
