1972 NBA Finals: LA Lakers vs. New York Knicks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 тра 2008
- The 1972 NBA Finals was the played at the conclusion of the 1971-72 NBA season. The Western Conference Champion Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Eastern Conference Champion New York Knicks in five games. The Los Angeles Lakers got their first NBA championship since the Lakers moved to Los Angeles from Minneapolis. New York had dethroned the 1968-69 NBA Champion Boston Celtics to get to their second NBA Finals appearance (the first being in the 1969-70 season when the Knicks edged out the Lakers in Game 7).
@ch501ris Yes, Ex-Celtic Great Bill Sharman did coach that 1972 Lakers Team, and later became General Manager of the Lakers before Jerry West. The L.A. Boy from Southern Cal came back to his hometown. And before he started coaching the Lakers in 1972, he also coached the ABA Los Angeles Stars to the ABA Finals back in 1970. And if I'm not mistaken, another "Ex-Celtic Great" was Bill Sharman's Assistant Coach back in 1972 by the name of K.C. Jones.
Thank for nba history lessons
And the greatest! How I would love to relive 1972 over, and over, and over.
At the 4:54 mark, that's Pat Riley hugging Jerry West that is shown at every commercial break now advertising for the NBA Finals on ABC.
To give the New York Knicks Starting 5 a Standing Ovation once they all went to the Bench is just an attribute of how much class Los Angeles Sports Fans have.
HAD
one of my all time fav teams
The 1972 Lakers played their best TEAM basketball. It's the ONLY time they played team ball until showtime. Thank you Bill Sharman for teaching the LA prima donnas team ball
lakers 1972 fantastic team
Agreed!!!!
@@adamdorgant9454 yess 33 wins at row they were strong team wilt Jerry west Baylor McMillan Goodrich hairston
@@master-kq3nw Yes they were!!!
Great season you always hear about Willis Reed playing with a bad leg but to me Wilt playin with his wrist sprain is Classic!!!
With both sprained wrists!!
Wilt had knee surgery knees too
Dang, away crowds giving standing ovations? you surely don't see that anymore. Chamberlain = one of the best centers to ever play
Would love to see some highlights of that years west conference finals.
Love to see 1973& 1974 willis reed and ny Knicks playing against Dave Cowen and healthy John havlichek &Boston Celtics
Kind of amazing that Jim McMillian's career sort of peaked in that, his second year. Although his stats were pretty consistent over a five-year span, he was a giant in that 33 game win streak, title year. His importance to a team was never the same.
jerry west, pat riley, and phil jackson in the same clip 30 years ago. awesome.
Great to see Pat Riley there at the end.
Phil Jackson was on that Knicks team and got his only ring as a player the following year.
He got his first in 1970@@dawoool
Good! After how many years he has played with the Lakers, and how much he has meant to the team. Elgn Baylor MORE than deserved to get a Ring back in 1972, even if he retired only 9 games into the Season.
And as for Chick Hearn, obviously he got a Ring. Everytime the Lakers won a World Championship(9 during his Broadcasting ERA) Chick Hearn got a Ring with everyone else in the Laker Organization. And I wouldn't be surprised if Dr. Jerry Buss might want to send a Ring to the Hearn Family.
The 1972 Lakers played their best TEAM basketball. It's the ONLY time they played team ball until showtime.
That man dancing in 0.54 like mascot
Lakers should have defeated New York all three times, plus Boston in 1969.
Chamberlain was unstoppable at will.
Especially 1970 nba finals: bill Russell said wilt should of ran 🏃♂️ Willis reed bad knees off the court
Pre knee surgery wilt,,,Wilt should've ateup 35 years old bill Russell with 30s scoring pointsv parade against 35 years bill Russell & Boston celtic ,wilt should've taken advantage of willis reed & his bad knees & ny knick 🏃♂️ running up & down the court , l.a Lakers miss Gail goodrich loss in expansion draft
L.a Lakers should've 🏆 win in 1969& 1970 MBA final playoffs series, bill Russell was 35 years old wilt should've ateup bill Russell, & 1970 nba final injuries to willis reed game 7 wilt should've ateup willis reed ran willis reed off the court,, willis reed never beat bill Russell and Boston Celtics in playoffs series
He mentioned that he was ambidextrous but he mostly used his right-hand but in lay-ups and drives, he used the left=hand.
Jerry West, Pat Riley, and a brief cameo of Phil Jackson running off the court. You could say Elgin Baylor was influential going forward, but he got latched on to the dead end wagon of Donald Sterling.
The los angeles lakers are number 1
RIP Jerry West
Well, if that is what he's complaining about, then again he has no legitimate argument. At 1:41 you can clearly see that no one has boxed out Frazier. He's just waiting for the ball as it hits the rim. Wilt is a few feet away.
In Game 4, Wilt played all 53 minutes (48 minutes + 5 O/T). And so did the KNicks Jerry Lucas. In Game 3 of the series, Happy Hairston and Wilt both recorded 20 rebounds.
At the end of this Video you see a young Pat Riley
Yes, now that you mentioned it!!!!
they won couse they were one hell of a team and even willis reed wouldnt help new york .
He complained about a push-off by Frazier.
First world championship IN L.A..6th overall.
Yes, now that you mentioned it!!!
@ch501ris Upsets do happen, and that's what was the motivation the Lakers needed to go 65-17 and steamroll through the Western Conference. Once they faced the Celtics in the NBA Finals, the Lakers beat them like they weren't there! The only 2 wins the Celtics got in that series were both in Boston.
Talk to you later.
gin: Thanks for posting. I love the way fans use to charge the court at the end of games like this. At 1:49, is Wilt waving to the crowd or to the fans? It looks like Frazier's tip in is clean, so I don't think he has an argument with the ref.
Yeah, but I still think that Wilt got more Tang then Shaq, over 10,000???
And down the Street was Dick Lane on the Mike with John Tolis and Freddie Blassie, MY EYES, MY EYES!!!!!!!
@ch501ris And the Lakers got revenge on that defeat in 1985, and kicked some more Green Ass in 1987.
@Johnnyroeinski Just because you got Amare Stoudamire dosen't mean that you can finally toot your own horn! You guys are almost The Boston Red Sox of Basketball. It's been so long since your Knicks ever won a Championship. Has it been 86 years yet? No, wait. 1973 is just almost 40 years ago. You're nearly halfway there!
@Jiltedin2007 Some do, some don't, shouldn't generalize, especially when times have changed. It was a different era and organization when they played at the forum.
Did Elgin Baylor also get a Ring with the other Lakers that year?
I was wondering the same thing!!!!
We. Tryed
@Jiltedin2007 ...you can't be serious !! the celtics were kicking the Fakers ass for 25 years untill they finally broke the string in 84......you must be too young to remember year after year of Faker losses to the GREEN........I actually started feeling sorry for West, Baylor, etc........and was happy they finally beat the f''..ing Knicks in this 72 series
Walt frazier was left-handed?? I always assumed he was right handed since he always shot the ball with his right hand throughout his basketball career.
@taliesen1953 Oh yeah, during a time when the Lakers were in a deep rebuilding mode, those Celtics really "Kicked Ass". Why didn't the Celtics play this 1972 Lakers team? The Lakers would have beaten the shit out of them! NO DOUBT!
Was that Sam Yorty's final year as Mayor also????
@Jiltedin2007 lol yeah rioting after the finals is a great display too
1975 Paul Rapp Directed GO FOR IT with Producer Big Wilt Chamberlain my La Laker and State beach volleyball HERO for me and Marta hersh my La Laker Del mar Surf girl canyonlocalfilmscom save The Tail O The Pup Hana Sushi and we LOVE Mike Anapole s SHAKA. Shack
@taliesen1953 Yes I could be serious! And obviously you must be a Hardcore Bostonian to be hating anything that has to do with New York. The Lakers record 33 Game Winning Streak during the 1972 Season is STILL the Longest Winning Streak in Professional Sports. This was the Greatest Lakers Team in Lakers History. Not even the Celtics could have stopped this team.
In the year 2020, LA is going to have 3 to 4 Baseball teams, Hocky Teams and Football teams. Who are you going to have Your Kid to Root For? Are You counting how many Cars will be turned over on Championship Parades in the future? Just think about it!
@pissedoffatyt best centre to play
@Jiltedin2007 used to have. riots this year didn't help their rep.
Adande.
Wilt's left hand was on Frazier right shoulder trying to push him off but forgot that it was Walt Frazier who is left-handed. Wilt was a bully.
I was watching game 4, 52 years ago when Walt Frazier tipped in the tying shot over Wilt with no time left. That was the most exciting game of the series. I was rooting for the Knicks, but I have to admit the Lakers were awesome.
@83tilinfinity And did the entire City of Los Angeles participate in the riots after this previous Lakers Championship? I know that I didn't! I was at home watching it in the news, like a good majority of the entire County(Not City) of Los Angeles. I am not lying when I say that Los Angeles Sports Fans do have class!
i cant hear a goddamn thing
The ONLY time the Knicks were actually good LOLLLL
@13war25 And who did the New York Knicks beat in the Eastern Conference Championship to face the Lakers in the 1973 NBA Finals? Think about that one for a while before you come on a Lakers Video and talk your Celtic Shit.
But they didn't they won only once and thats because Willis Reed was hurt for most of the year
@Jiltedin2007 yea..those PATHETIC celtics...who had just won 11 out of the last 14 championships and were soon to win again in '74 and '76.....pathetic !!!!!
Willis Reed did not play in the series. The Knicks would have won if he did.
