An afternoon with Vintage NBA.
« on: November 22, 2004, 03:39:19 PM »
I was sick this weekend so on Saturday afternoon I just lolled on the couch with "Vintage NBA" on ESPN Classic.  

Man was that fun.  The Lakers going up against Moses and Houston in the playoffs. I'd almost forgotten how smooth Jamal Wilkes was and how Moses' intensity.  

Wilt and Philly grabbing the title against Rick Barry and Nate Thurmond's Warriors, a funny old video about the Mpls Lakers grabbing the title against the "Knickerbockers" in NY.  

Most amazing of all was the Lakers thirty three game streak coming to a halt in Milwaukee.  Wilt, the Logo, Oscar and Kareem all on one floor, with a mutton chopped Pat Riley and Bobby Dandridge thrown in for good measure.
