NBA Championship thread...input needed
Ok, Basketball Guru's! The big Question for you:
For each Championship series for each year in the past, I want to know who the top players are from the championship team. For example: Last year the Heat won the NBA Title with Lebron, Wade and Bosh. But major rolls were played by Chalmers and Battier...and Mike Miller stepped up in at least one of those games to make a bunch of 3's. Am I missing anyone else?
Am I missing anyone that played a big roll OR do I have someone listed that really didn't play that big a roll?
Any input would be great!
Thanks
Here is what I have so far:
2013 Heat
Lebron James...MVP
Dwayne Wade...Good D at times
Chris Bosh...a couple of huge blocks
Mario Chalmers...a couple of solid games
Shane Battier...game 7, the 3's came alive
Chris Anderson...energizer bunny
Ray Allen...Huge 3 pointer in game 6

By this list the 72 blazers didn't have many big names lol

you mean the '77 Blazers? There weren't too many big names or big contributors in that series as far as I have read.
Give me some additions if you have any input; on any of the championship series...
Discussions and opinions are welcome!

Excuse me I meant 77. My point was that Walton was amazing that year and imagine what he could have done if he stayed healthy.

Don't remember Kerr on the '99 Spurs squad. Avery Johnson was there though

Lol. Agreed!

He was on the team but I don't remember if he was a major contributor, I do need to add Avery though... Thanks

Ray Allen would have to be there? Biggest three point shot in his career.
