Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2219148, member: 652"] I am pissed the Lakers lost to the Rockets in 1986. That 86 Celtics team was their best one and the Lakers lost to Houston in the WCF. The following year was the Lakers best team in 1987 and an injured Celtics team outlasted both the Bucks and Pistons(including Bird's crazy steal in game 5) and lost to the Lakers. I hope that is brought up. The count should be 2-2 but the Lakers tapped out in 86. The Lakers of the 80s were like LeBron now in the East. They owned the conference. Boston had to deal with Philly thru 1984 and then Detroit the rest of the decade. I still respect the heck of those Lakers teams. I hated LA but it was a like the 2003-2004 Yankees-Red Sox rivalry. Each side won. [/QUOTE]
