Dime Travel

At the end of Magic-Bird and before Air Jordan there was 2 years of Laimbeer, Dumars, Thomas and Rodman. At least that's the way the you might remember things in your universe, you weirdo. Take a flight in our pym-particle-powered phone booth time machine and find out what really happened in 1990.

Yawn. Whatever. The Bill Russell Celtics always win the championship. Or perhaps we should say, they always win the post season tournament. But do they always win the more important regular season Elo Championship? Can Jerry West and Elgin Baylor put together a regular season for the Lakers that takes them down? Maybe Wilt Chamberlain and the boys can win the title a year early for the 76ers. Only we can say for sure.
