It's only the 287321677975th time we're gonna hear about this rivalry

[ambchang]

Let's a man if they will finally talk about stern ordering black players to go easy on bird.

[Silver&Black]

Just think in 30 years we'll get to watch the Lakers 30 for 30 against their new rivals.

Lakers vs. 76ers: Tank Warfare.

:lol

[Kim Jong-il]

One of the most overrated rivalries in sports. Bird and Magic were buddies. Lakers purposely threw the series in 86 vs Houston to avoid getting their asses beat by Boston. You don't do that if you truly are rivals.

This was a bigger rivalry amongst the fanbases than the teams.

[Splits]

I'll make it easy for them.

Boston: 17
LA: 11

Show over.

Chop chop.

Would like to see Magic talk about the 84 series. Oh boy he's probably gonna cry in the middle of that

Because that fluke backwards shot by the Rockets scrub was the Lakers doing?

You gave them 10 rings, they should have reciprocated but they didn't. Now you want to watch the carnage? Don't pretend the 80's were the end all-be all of the rivalry. Russell broke it off in your ass proper.

:lol It's not even a real rivalry. The Celtics have the edge in championships, head-to-head playoff series won, head-to-head playoff record, and head-to-head regular season record. The "rivalry" is really just insecure Laker fans refusing to accept that the Celtics are their daddy.

Of course they have the edge they have us 17-16
But if it wasn't a rivalry why would Celts fans chant Beat LA?!
You probably were sperm or drinking similac at that time so you cannot speak on it ... dat shit was real unlike the pussified rivalries where your franchise's greatest player gets mad cuz Pau touched him on the top of the head and mvpau apologizes to CP3

[ambchang]

I know it was 5-3 in the 80s, but Boston always had the tougher road. They went though the 6ers and Pistons year after year before taking on the west champs. While LAs toughest western rival back then were the Mavs, which is a bucks level competitor. Houston was aberration more than anything and was No where close to be pistons and 6ers.

Reverse the conferences and I doubt the lakers play in 9 finals winning 5. They were the heat of the 90s.

As a celebration of how the Celtics "beat LA" in every category that matters. :downspin:

Face it: the Celtics are the Lakers' fathers. It is what it is.

[LkrFan]

Notice there is no 30 for 30 on Lakers vs. Spurs. Only on ST or in the 210 is there a "rivalry" between these two teams. Kobe's H2H mastery of Jim perished the thought, I'm told by a BSPN spokeswoman :)

Closing the Forum with a sweep was nice though

It's a media created fake rivalry. Not a shock that two of the least intelligent fanbases on the planet completely fell for it, too.

Boiled down:::the Celtics are your fathers. That's it and that's all.

Did you also notice the Lakers missed the playoffs again?

You enjoy that 30 for 30 though since we know you couldn't watch those games live at your pueblito in Mexico.

the greatest era of basketball tbh, before this brand of castrated basketball.
1. man up ball
2. real superstars not a league with durbeta/cucky/westbrick/haren as the future
3. real rivalries (la, boston, philly, pistons) and real hate
4. proper rules to protect the integrity of the game instead of protecting weak 3p chuckers
5. great pretenders : dad killer, hakeem, ewing, k. malone
6. a game featuring its entire variety low post, high post, 3p, mid range, fastbreak, pnr, etc, instead of just horns->pnr->3
7. all star game meant something
8. players could express themselves not get tech'd for looking at the ref
9. none of this resting buffoonery.
10. the arenas had real atmosphere, not this fake clap/sound bullshit. nowadays we have a castrated public for a castrated game tbh.

tbh I was a big fan 15 years ago but the game just lost its integrity today. besides some particular series where there is bad blood the game is just too fake.

EDIT: and yes the game has more skill today but it is still a FAR inferior product.
