ESPN Classic

I suggest you guys check out ESPN Classic. They are showing classic NBA playoff games all day long.So far I watched Timberwolves VS Lakers 2003 First round series and the 1991 NBA Finals. Chicago Bulls VS LA Lakers.I will watch as many as I can today. Its interesting to look back on.So far I gathered Shaq is far from clutch while Kobe is amazingly clutch. He took it coast to coast for a dunk with about 40 seconds left. Then with 17 seconds left he made a jumper while being fouled and made both the shot and the free throw to bring the Lakers to within 2 points.Wow now Kobe is fouled with 12 seconds left and he hits the game tying shot to send it into overtime.Oh yeah. Jordan is the best player in history. That cant be debated.

 

Damn. Too bad I dont get ESPN Classic. Hopefully there might be something on NBA TV...

No. I remember when this series was going on I missed Game 1 and Game 3.I forget who wins.

 

I told you guys Kobe was always clutch. Wade will need to do that if the Heat are going to be succesful in the playoffs this year.I wish I had ESPN classic here. I'm in Dallas.

 

Kobe misses for 2 seconds left Lakers lose by 4

 

This marathon only deals with First Round Series, right?

 

Thats what I thought. But I saw the Bulls-Lakers game this morning I checked ahead of schedual and yes it does deal with 1st round series only.

 

Ive only seen games from the 70's and 80's thus far. I keep missing the recent ones,

 

I saw a preview of Nets-Bulls with Jordan, im going to catch that game even though the Nets I think get killed lol.

 

Cool I'll check it out. Kings and Mavs would be interesting or Rockets and Mavs.Bulls at Heat in 1992 on NBATV.

 

I wish they showed more Lakers 3 peat stuff, that was all gold.KG was a monster back in the day, most people wouldn't trade him for Shaq. Oh how things change...

 

I just finished watching game 4 of Hornets-Celtics. McHales final game. Mourning wins the game and series off a long 2 as time runs out while down 1. What a finish!

 

Yeah Mourning was a monster too, and still is actually.

I like watching Classic games. It's amazin just how good Michael Jordan was, and if you haven't realized it, you need to check out a game

 

I love how they were doing this, they had some great games on there. That Bulls vs. Bullets game in 97' was awesome. Chris Webber, Calbert Chaney, Juwon Howard, Rod Strickland, and best of all Gheorghe Muresan!!! I loved that team

 

After watching Jordan I realize he is worthy of that hype. He is the most explosive player and impossible to stop. Pippen was pretty good also.

 

Did anybody wacth the Bullets playoff game besides WTTJ? He had 55 points when I left to go play ball. He was unstoppable. He was double and triple teamed and still scored like it was no problem.

If so, you must have not seen Shaq play this season or Garnett play this season. The last two or three years of KG's career have been his best. I'm not quite sure what you meant by this comment. Care to elborate?
