Most of us remember the days of the past- Bird against Magic.

The Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics will resume the most famous rivalry in professional basketball this Thursday night. The two teams met in the NBA Finals seven times in the 1960s and three times in the 1980s, leaving an indelible mark on the game.

So to American sports commentators and fans, who are sentimentalists at heart, this year’s Final looks like a blast from the past.

It’s long been known that these teams have a great rivalry which makes these playoffs all the more exciting. This is the first big repeat face-off in the last 21 years.

What’s your bet on the NBA finals this year? As for me I’m California dreamin’.
