Hosted by 7-time champion Robert Horry and Jabari Davis, NBA Finals File dives deep into the greatest Finals series in NBA history, breaking down the best moments, storylines and matchups using rare archival audio from the NBA, and the personal touch that only Big Shot Bob can give.
In this episode of NBA Finals File, we examine the Lakers vs Celtics series in 1984. This seven-game battle that changed the NBA forever and featured multiple future Hall of Famers as well as the most intense rivalry in the NBA. This was Magic Johnson and the Lakers facing Larry Bird and Celtics, a matchup the world had been waiting for since they met in college five years earlier. Jabari and Rob discuss the Lakers’ “Showtime” offense, dealing with the physicality of the Celtics, the crazy heat in the Boston Garden. In part two, “Big Game” James Worthy will join the show to talk about the series he still has nightmares about to this day.
