This is such a great game.  That Portland Team was a great team.  Talented up and down the lineup and even had bench guys like Cliff Robinson that could really play.  Flashy team, I thought they were a great fastbreak team just like the Lakers.  Terry Porter was really playing some great basketball then, and obviously their star Clyde Drexler.  I thought they would beat the Lakers and they were favored and had homecourt advantage.  But Magic had one last trick to play.  Magic was still in his prime, and his squad was also talented and deep with a young Vlade Divac.  James Worthy in his prime.  Byron Scott in his prime.  AC Green was a big time player in those days as well.  Great series, always remembered the finish with Magic slinging the ball to the backcourt with time running out...

AC Green like never missed a game...he had that consecutive streak and he was into abstinence which I always thought was wild but maybe he was onto something back then with all these dudes load managing these days and they're 25 years old lol
