I have that DVD! It's called NBA Furious Finishes, and it's FANTASTIC. It also has the complete TNT broadcast of the last 5 minutes or so of T-Mac's singlehanded comeback vs the Spurs.

I kinda miss the NBA. I haven't really followed since Clyde Drexler, and the rest of the Original Dream Team generation retired. I guess, at the time, it didn't seem like very many of the younger players had much respect for the game. If you were going to try and bring a backslidden NBA watcher back to the fold, what teams and individuals would you talk up? Who makes today's game great?
Yeah, Tim Duncan of the Spurs is one of the unsung greatest players of all-time. Quite humble, great all-round player, and they just win a lot.</p> The game really has changed since those days. There are guys who are Dr. J kind of flashy players but nobody has really taken the "ambassador of basketball" role that was passed from the good doctor to magic/bird to jordan.</p> LeBron James is the real deal. He's about the size of Magic Johnson and likewise can play all 5 positions. He's way quicker and better at all things but passing than Johnson, too. As a scorer, he's already putting up better numbers than Jordan did at the same age. And he's only 21 or 22.</p> </p>
