This video chronicles the 1984 season, which marked the beginning of the real boom for NBA basketball. 1984 was the first season where Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, college rivals from the past, met in the NBA Finals for the first time. It was also current NbA Commissioner, David Stern's first year at the helm, and marked the beginning of expanded playoff basketball. This event also marked the return of the historic Celtics-Lakers rivalry which had been absent for some fifteen years.

CBS video does a remarkable job chronicalling the season which marked many firsts, including the NBA All-star weekend. Fans should remember that it was there that the first NBA slam dunk contest took place. The video takes you in depth to the intensity of the 1984 playoffs, which included heroics from many of the game's future hall of famers including the Isiah Thomas - Bernard King duel in the first round of the playoffs. It also shows the Nets' improbable upset over the then defending champion Philadelphia Seventy-sixer team led by Dr. J.

What makes this video so enjoyable is that it includes both depth and entertainment into one of basketball's best years. Most NBA videos focus just on one player or one team, or include just highlights. This video gives notice to the whole league, without detracting from the video's main focus, the Lakers and the Celtics.

Dick Stockton does a superb job narrating the film, and its inclusion of music from the eighties makes it even more nostalgic. Any true fan will enjoy this video.
