Magic with one of the classiest moves ive seen

Notice how Magic didn't mention the Lakers injuries at all? No excuses, praise the team that beat you

this never gets old!!!

Happy for John Long, who was there for the lean years and returned to get his ring.

Wow this really brings back childhood memories. I was 10-year-old when the Pistons won their first NBA title and I was crazy about the Bad Boys. What makes Detroit's back-to-back titles in 89/90 so special is that was the golden era of the NBA; truly the league's best years (80's-90's).

Bad Boys! Bad Boys! Bad Boys! LOVE IT! I graduated high school that year, and this was so special. The eighties and nineties were the best!

The vast majority of that decade, it was either Larry Bird and the Celtics or Magic Johnson and the Lakers. Detroit ended both of their reigns and put Chicago's reign on hold.

Pistons redeemed and got revenge on the Lakers.

I really do miss the NBA on CBS...i'm showing my age. I watched many games from the 1977 playoffs to the end(1990 NBA finals). From the age of 9 to 22, i watched these games live and in tape delay(i'm really showing my age). The down period of the NBA(before Bird and Magic) and the resurgence in the 80's. The NBA became so popular in the Bird, Magic, and the very young Jordan era that when i was in the US Navy from 1986-89, some of the countries would show NBA games in real time. When i was deployed in the Pacific, the Philippines used to show games live(2-4AM local time). Or if we were at sea, we would see a few tape delayed games. I grew up on the NBA on CBS and most people under 40 have no idea about those times. I was disappointed and surprised that NBC won the rights to the NBA. By the 1990 NBA all star game, most fans already knew that NBC was taking over that next season. Dick Stockton reminded everybody in game 5 of the '90 NBA finals that if the Pistons won, that was it. Vinnie Johnson made the game winning shot and that was it, the NBA on CBS was all over. Some representatives or TV execs need to find a way to incorporate a few games(preseason or regular season) back to CBS.

1989- Pistons got revenge on the Lakers after losing the year before 2014-Spurs beat the Heat and got revenge after losing the year before 2016-Cavaliers got revenge on the Warriors after losing the year before

The Bad Boys pretty much ended the Celtic/Lakers stranglehold of the league. Then they got ended by the Bulls. The era 1980 up until 1998 was insane. So many talented players and so many good teams

RIP MR. D one of the most underrated owners in NBA history.

Really cool video

I REALLLY hate seeing the owners raising the championship trophy FIRST

Bad boys for life

That pistons bad boys team was hungry and looking for redemption after the classic finals loss to the lakers the previous year in 1988... This would be rick mahorns final game with the pistons..after the pistons parade the bad boys slowly began to fall down...wish the pistons could've kept rick mahorn...rip chuck daly and jack mccloskey...

I would love to see this Pistons team against the golden state warriors

Full Circle for The Bad Boys!

Go Detroit Pistons.

Micheal Williams uncorking a champagne bottle in his own face at 4:55 😆

wow back then players werent salty and go congratulate the winner in their own locker room

ya their defence really defanged Michael, no lie in that! (he eventually took it personally) Also congrats to them for setting that defensive record!

Gotta respect Detroit...hated to see Kareem go out like that...but the better team won...

A nine year old Chris, loved this team

The final catalyst for this title was trading Dantley for Aguirre. That was the move they needed. And if the pistons had lost, everyone would’ve blamed that trade. Thankfully for them it worked out because with the way Dantley and Isiah Thomas weren’t getting along, they probably wouldn’t have won those two championships.

r.i.p. trader jack mccloskey

the best ever

Deeeetroitt basskettball!!!

Damn these announcers are dry. They barely acknowledged the Pistons as champions.

Anyone who would put an asterisk on this championship are sore losers.

Why go into the champions locker or into their celebration...damn, Magic loved the limelight!

Is it me or does this announce team sound dry about the Pistons winning the championship?

Damn the Lakers peed hard in this Championship series. I couldn't go to the opposing team's lockeroom after peeing like that.

RODMAN

Really their 2nd. Robbed with a phantom call in 1988.

Lol Isaiah 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Tainted championship no magic no Scott *
