Top 5 NBA Finals Moments

The National Basketball Association has been around for more than 50 years, and during such time, countless remarkable moments have taken place during the finals, though there are a handful that has caught our attention more than others, which is why we have created our very own top five, check them out and see if you are agree. Let’s start with number five.
The comeback of Willis: Though the Knicks have been a mediocre team for quite a while (things are starting to look different now that they have Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire in their roster), there was a time when they were a really good team that managed to make it to the 1970 finals where they met the Lakers, the most powerful team of such era thanks to the talents of Wilt Chamberlain. It was game five of this series when Willis Reed got injured and was unable to play game six, which was won by Los Angeles, then on game seven, he forgot about the pain and played, and this certainly motivated the rest of the team to play their best basketball, allowing New York to conquer their first NBA title.
Clutch City: Patrick Ewing is one of the best players the Knicks has ever had, and his mano a mano against Hakeem Olajuwon from the Rockets at the 1994 finals was simply unforgettable, though it was Houston who managed to conquer the title in seven games.
Jordan on fire: Back in 1992, Michael Jordan was at his prime, and proof of that is game one, where his “airness” put up an incredible display of talent, and allowed the Bulls to win that match and the series in six games against the Trailblazers.
Simply Magic: When it comes to the best point guards in the history of the game, the name of Magic Johnson is probably on most lists, and back in 1980 when he was only 20 years old, he helped the Lakers, whom were without the presence of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, their main star, to win the finals, allowing Magic to obtain his first Finals MVP award.
Jordan against the Jazz: With only 5 seconds remaining on the clock and a score of 86-85 favoring Utah, Mike took the ball and scored a valuable two-pointer who gave the Bulls their third title in a row, and after that, Jordan left Chicago for good, meaning that such valuable points were his last with the franchise that gave him 6 championship rings.
