In Response to Re: Back to Back to Back : I feel for ya Snoop cause as you know the NBA is now a legit world league with the best players on the planet-unlike the bush league of the 60s with it's +9 team league and very small playoffs with no 3-pt shots etc etc etc. Had the NBA stayed the same, basketball would not exist anywhere as we know it. Perhaps that's why your Boston Celtics haven't gone back to back because they haven't really moved on from the bush league days.

Classy post my friend, very classy. Magic Johnson changed the dynamic of the NBA with the help of Larry Bird. I just wish that Bird could have won as much as Magic. It all started in college when Magic led Michigan State over Larry's Indiana State and then continued in the NBA with Magic's Lakers winning 5 titles compared to Larry and my beloved Celtics only winning 3 titles. It is a good thing that Magic Johnson transformed the league and made it popular with his showtime Lakers. That is the greatest team of all time. They would have undoubtedly laid the smack down on my beloved Celtic teams from the 50's and 60's.
