The big 3 were ruthless. So intense and professional in their execution but they were aging at this point and they had to play high minutes due to a depleted bench. Len Bias was missed during this phase. He was so athletic he would have made a huge difference.
Those were the days, my friend......

What a devastating loss Len Bias was all the way around. Terrible. Bias giving Bird the ability to rest his back? God only knows
CBS had the best nba music
Wow, I never saw this game, I must have had finals that week.. love the big 3..
When Larry was averaging 30/game.
Excellent!
Charles Barkley said Kevin McHale was unguardable in the low post.
Art Boston Has always said that.
McHale still good but really lost his quickness and mobility after injuries in 87
Yeah, his patented pivot stretch was lagging some.
Remember when those graphics were amazing!
It’s called beautiful basketball. No backboards smashing, no jerrycurls splashing, no fighting. Just high level EXECUTION pun intended….
7:18 Bird posterizes Barkley with a dunk!
Boy Philly really had their hands full. They must have been sweating it at least a week beforehand.
The Celtics, still great, but their age caught up with them in the playoffs.
Mostly "injuries"
Larry Bird just 32...not too old...

2:26 😱 my goodness that should’ve been a flagrant
Why.... I have NEVER !!
The Sixers got revenge in Boston, but the Celtics won the season series 4-2.
