I know theres an NBA thread, but I thought about how amazing this series is and I'd like your thoughts. These 2 teams have been as closely matched as you could ever imagine. 6 games. Only one was a blowout. The other 5, 4 go into overtime, 2 double overtime, and last nite, triple overtime. There have been last second, unbelievable shots, especially by Ben Gordon and Ray Allen. These 2 have had a legendary matchup. I could go into all the details of the series, all the ties, amount of lead changes etc., but I'd be off and wouldn't do it justice.
Unfortunately, I've only watched Basketball since '97-'98, and then not for a few years later, so its hard for me to judge. But based on my maybe not so great knowledge on the history of Basketball, I would say yes, because based on the above info, I can't imagine other teams being that closely contested. I'd would love to hear others thoughts, maybe old school series I probably don't know about. But I'm sure this series at least ranks up there.
