Chương 484: Chapter 101: Overall Runner-Up

With the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers both eliminated from the Eastern and Western Conference Finals, the NBA entered a brand-new era.

For the second consecutive year, the Portland Trail Blazers made it to the Finals, striving for their first championship defense in 17 years.

The Detroit Pistons, after sweeping reforms, unexpectedly crashed into the Finals during a season full of changes and uncertainties.

Since 1980, the Eastern Conference finally had a third team besides the Celtics and the 76ers making it into the Finals.

The Eastern Conference had been dominated by a "duo" for seven seasons, and the arrival of new faces filled people with anticipation for this round of the Finals.

The Detroit Pistons were undoubtedly very excited. They had toppled the Bostonians' reign, reaching heights they had never before attained.
