Boston Celtics: 1985-1986 NBA Champions - Sweet Sixteen (Collector's Edition)



Missing Game 5 fight
First let me say the set is great but it is not complete and unedited. The only reason to watch Game 5 was the fight in which

The day before this contest Larry Bird received his third consecutive MVP trophy and he really showed why in this one, scoring 31...
