Would appreciate any big NBA fan who can answer these questions:

Has a team ever come back from 3-0 down to win the NBA Finals?

Has a rookie ever been selected for the All-Star game?

Has a rookie ever won the playoff MVP?

What was the reason behind The Celtics falling away after such domination in the 60s (I think they've only won it three times since '69)?

Cheers

To your questions...

- Has a team ever come back from 3-0 down to win the NBA Finals?
No, a team has never, ever come back from a 3-0 deficit.

- Has a rookie ever been selected for the All-Star game?
Yes, multiple times. Including Kobe Bryant, who was widely critiziced (!?!?!?!?!) for starting on the All-Star Game, but not on his team, the LA Lakers, LeBron James, and Yao Ming.

- Has a rookie ever won the playoff MVP?
Not that i know of. But I'm really lost on this one.

- What was the reason behind The Celtics falling away after such domination in the 60s (I think they've only won it three times since '69)?
30 years is a lot of time. A team can stop dominating the league in less time than that, combining retiring players and aweful managerial staff (the Chicago Bulls of Jordan, won 6 titles in the '90s and were one of the worst teams when Jordan retired.)

actually the reason the celts stopped dominating was the same reason the canadians stopped dominating in hockey ...expansion....in the 60s there were only a handful of teams so the celts did not have to run the gauntlet of playoff matchups like today....there were like only 7or 8 teams and they had the best talent so it was easier to dominate

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
