    This story telling is so important to the game, the NBA should consider developing the story lines of games especially during the playoffs. People sometimes forget the gravity a series have for a players/teams career. I miss seeing these intros

      Absolutely! It bugs me that the nba/espn doesn’t try to bring back this element like they use to. They got hella lazy and don’t even have finals intros anymore. The game needs it and will only enhance the sport.

    My Pacers were a longshot in this series...just running into a buzzsaw with Shaq and Kobe. But they took it to six games, which was impressive. They almost won Game 4; it was a nail biter. What might have been!

      Matt Motter Game 6 of the 1994 Eastern Conference Finals was pretty painful too. The Pacers had the Knicks on the ropes after Reggie Miller's electric performance in Game 5 at New York (the choke signal game) but failed to close the deal at home.

    • @default8587

    As a Pacers fan, this was as good as it got for us. This was the Pacers' only appearance in the NBA Finals, and we lost that series in six games. I remember it like it was yesterday. For Game 2, which was at Staples Center in Los Angeles, thousands of Pacers fans (including me) watched the game on the screens in the then-brand new Conseco Fieldhouse and pretended we were in L.A. It was a huge party to watch an away game.
    The Pacers are now a shell of what they were back then.

  • @bokkebokke7
    @bokkebokke7 6 років тому +7

    Here because the NBA on NBC is coming back next year. As long as it has the Bob Costas intros, I’ll enjoy it as much as I’ve enjoyed Inside The NBA w/Ernie, Charles, Kenny & Shaq. Just hope the starchiness of the company that is NBC allows freedom of Kenny & Shaq coming along because the Inside The NBA Magic was all Charles Barkley entertainment. Ernie’s command of the show could be matched, or even outmatched by Bob Costas who has shown glimmers of it by leading the old starchy NFL pregame and postgame shows.

You don't get championships because you deserve them, you get them because you earned them, because you were better than the other guy when all the money was on the table. And I'm not hating on Reggie; I liked him. But he didn't "deserve" anything more than what he got.
