@Meshael24 records dont mean shit. The Mavs had a great record this year and nobody expected them to make it past the 1st round. LA was aging and declining. Portland was the young up and coming team that had just come off a Finals loss to Detroit.
-
@Meshael24 They were 57-25, and yes they were underdogs against Portland that year. No question about it.

Regular Season Record is not the only factor, the Lakers won that WCF because of experience and Magic who's arguably the best player of all time. And those were the only two advantages they had. The Blazers had much better depth and Athletic Ability. And were probably the favorite to win the NBA Finals in 91 going in.

@FRSFreeStatePlus The Lakers record in 90-91 season is 56-26. Is that a underdog to you?
-
@chriso728 The Bulls were due for an NBA Title for a long time as it was anyway.They did even better and won 6 championships all in the span of 8 years.

@loutcb That's what we all said too at the time.

clyde should have drove.

The 1991 Lakers were special because even though they were actually and underdog, they still won the Western Conference.
-
what a play by magic nobody would have thought and also by the time the ball went out of bounds it should have been 0.0 time
God Dick Bavetta hasn't aged a day!

People forget that it was the Blazers who had won the Pacific Division that year and had the best record in the league. The Lakers were not even supposed to make the finals but Magic, and Worthy, willed them into it.
