Great game from 86/87 regular season; Julius Erving last game in Boston Garden, Bird and Parish both with triple-doubles and great offensive performance by Celtics (62% FG, 36 assists).
• Jordan & Pippen Each R...
• Video
Triple-doubles are not common in the NBA, as they occur about once in every 36 games. What is even rarer than a triple-double is to have two players from the same team both have triple-doubles in the same game. MJ and Pipp did it in 88/89 and VC and Jason Kidd did it in 06/07.
Larry Bird and Robert Parish did it in this one; Bird had 17/13/12 and Parish had 14/10/10 .
Celtics won the game 118:100.

Damn that block by Barkley was amazing. He was so fast and athletic considering his bulk and being undersized for the pf position!

Big-time upload, tremendous basketball being played. Bird and Parish were terrific on this one, shame that the Celtics couldn't maintain their 1985-86 level for the 1986-87 season, due to injuries and older age. Dr J was still balling and showing great athleticism in his final year.

And thanks to Walton's fragile ass sitting on the bench all year.

@@tombstone1111 of course everyone knows the impact the Len Bias death had on this 87 team and beyond. But your so right about Walton in 87. And even a guy like Scott Wedman was hurt that year. So even without Bias maybe a healthy Walton and Wedman would have helped. But then again with their age and injury history it was wishful thinking they both could give that short bench what it needed. Little depth and experience

Whenever I talk to friends and we debate who the "Mt. Rushmore" of greatest players at each position of all-time, from the 20th century, I always get stuck at Sir Charles. I would put him in a unique Forward category, similar to Larry Legend, in that he was a match-up nightmare at EITHER SF or PF. He was way too strong for SF's. And he was way too explosive and athletic for PFs. He really wasn't a true SF or PF. He was a change agent and a unicorn. In the Dream Team Olympic Games, was a monster. I guess I'll call him a PF.

A few observations. Barkley could jump out of the gym .....wow! If the Doc had developed the consistent outside shot ( I know the times were “get the ball down low, etc), his career probably would’ve been extended . Larry, my God, Is the best passer ever .

Doc had .48 fg in his last year...way better than kobe or ai...julius just had very bad luck landing on the sixers who asked him to sit back and let McGinnis be the bus driver..he had to drop to 17 fga per game from 22/23 he had in ABA while his fg remained consistent at .5+ throughout his career..in the 1977 finals he averaged 30 with .54 and Mcginnis and Free shot a horrible below .4 as they did in next years playoffs..Erving was the mvp of those finals and if his locker romm was less toxic he would have had dominated the NBA at arrival!

Doc was given the outside shot, because guys were scared of him going to the hole

Love it when Bird swished a turnaround in Charles barkley's face!

I know guys that said doc couldn't shoot, when he was young, he couldn't be stopped going inside, but as he got older and not as quick, he worked and showed he had a solid outside shot.

He may not have been a great outside shot, but he had a solid mid range bank shot, as Bird noted.

He always had the midrange game
