    Rest in peace the announcers: Dick Enberg and Steve "Snapper" Jones. The memories those 2 gave me announcing NBA games, as a die hard Knicks fan in the 1990s as a kid are great. And the Portland Trailblazers who have died: Cliff Robinson, Jerome Kersey and Kevin Duckworth. Who would have thought that Magic Johnson who was diagnosed with a DEADLY incurable HIV virus in 1991 would outlive them all and become a super successful businessman worth 1.2 BILLION dollars. The guy is truly Magic)

    This lakers team was badass. Grizzled vets in Scott and Worthy plus some young guns led by a savvy and guile magic johnson.
    To me, magic taking this team to the finals was one of his finest accomplishments considering the age and injuries + new coach that he dealt with.

Imagine this team with a better shooter than doncic, a Doncic with 52%fg, 45% from 3p.,90%ft..and a Jokic way better in defense, with 3-4 blocks a game, before injuries way way better athlete, a man who destroyed D.

    In between there 90 and 92 NBA finals appearances, was this 91 Blazers team, that was probably there best team during that 3 year stretch. They had the best record in the entire league in a time where Michael Jordan was arguably at his absolute peak, and the Bulls would obviously go on to become 1st time NBA champions.
    The Blazers were a very good team with a great player in Clyde Drexler as there #1 guy, but they weren't quite good enough to overcome a 3 year stretch where they lost in the finals to prime Isiah and the vintage bad boy Pistons, Magic Johnson in the last year of his prime and the somewhat under dog Lakers and obviously prime if not peak MJ and the defending champion Bulls.

      no your assertion is false.
      1st) during that era a career didn't last as long. modern medicine had not advanced so much ( the mid 90s is when teams heavily invested in sports medicine) and thus Magic was not as tuned up as you would expect
      2nd) during the 80s NBA players traveled commercial which over many years took a heavy toll on their bodies
      3rd) Magic had a TON of mileage on him by that time having gone to the Finals eight times

      6 God, King of Israel, your Redeemer, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, says: "I'm first, I'm last, and everything in between. I'm the only God there is. Exodus 3:14 And God (Jesus) said to Moses, 'I AM WHO I AM'; and He said, 'This is what you shall say to the sons of Israel: 'I AM has sent me to you. John 5:46-47 Jesus(God) said For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote of me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”. John 8:24 Jesus(God) said Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.” John 14: 6-7 Jesus (God) said to him, “I AM the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, then you will also know my Father. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”. John 8:58 Jesus(God) answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I AM!” Matthew 24:35
      Jesus (God) says
      “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” 2 Corinthians 4:4
      satan, who currently rules this evil world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is God. Revelation 21:8
      But the cowardly, (the unbelieving), the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts,(the idolaters) and all liars-they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
