      Looking BACKWARD, I'd take Kareem just on longevity and having an unblockable shot. Better defender than he gets credit for, too.
      ...but if you told me I had one guy to start a franchise around, there's no question in my mind it'd be Larry. I'll take his 10 or so good years and all his intangibles when building a franchise above Kareem, above Magic, above Wilt, and CERTAINLY above LeFlop.

    But he did come back to lose to the lakers the following year only to dig deep and win it again after that series lose. So Larry Legend was GREAT but so was Magic and Kareem and Cooper. The Lakers really were GREAT. They respected each other, the Lakers and Boston. Nothing like the 80's - NOTHING! I miss that era.

The Celtics were battling a lot of nagging injuries going into that finals series against the Lakers and the Lakers still needed six games to beat them, if the Celtics have Bias it's most likely the exact opposite, with the Celtics winning that series in six games ..

    Totally bias take. The Celtics would do anything to win, including turning the heater on in the Lakers locker room, when it was unbearable. That was the last time the Lakers and Magic would lose to the Celtics. If there was a year, the Lakers should have won, but didn't, it was that year.
