Leading 2-1 at one stage, the Boston Celtics folded over the next three games as the Golden State Warriors asserted their superiority. Hit by a combination of Steph Curry- aided by an expert supporting cast-and their follies, Ime Udoka's young side fell short in 6 exhilarating games. Although their tussle was often riveting, it fails to burst past some of the legendary Finals contested over NBA's 75-year history. Here's our pick of three finals series which trump the one we just witnessed. Also Read: NBA Finals, Game 6: Boston Celtics vs Golden State Warriors quarter-by-quarter breakdown #3. Chicago Bulls vs Phoenix Suns (1993) ,After a mediocre regular season, Michael Jordan-led Bulls upped the ante in the playoffs. Cruising past the Atalanta Hawks and Cleveland Cavaliers, the Bulls would dump the New York Knicks 4-2 in the Conference Finals. Drawn against a Suns side studded with star names- Charles Barkley, Kevin Johnson, Dan Majerle and Danny Ainge- the two sides would duel over six games. The Bulls might have sealed the deal 4-2, but the point differential between the two stood at a grand zero. ,Leading 3-1 and at home, the Bulls had the chance to clinch the finals in five, but an all-round team performance by the Suns stretched the series to a sixth. At Phoenix's home court, the Bulls trailed by 2 with 14.4 seconds remaining. Jordan off-loaded to Scottie Pippen as he stomped past the half-court. The maverick forward found Horace Grant on the edge of the Suns' paint. Crowded out by their rearguard, Grant laid off to John Paxson. Unchallenged, the guard would tee off a crucial three-pointer with 3.9 seconds left on the clock.

However, Draymond Green got slapped with a one-game suspension for picking up too many flagrant fouls in the four games leading up to Game 5. Green- then at the peak of his powers- was a miss for the Warriors as LeBron James and Kyrie Irving racked up 41 points each to fire the Cavs to victory. Andrew Bogut's injury ruled him out of Games 6 and 7, leaving Kerr's side without an effective presence at the rim. James would hit another 41 points in Game 6 to level the series 3-3! ,In Game 7, James and Green were sublime as ever. The Cavs talisman notched up 25 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.

Golden State made that decision based on medical rationale and a desire to minimize the chance of injury going into the playoffs — not because of a frustrating loss at Orlando on Tuesday, coach Steve Kerr said. Also read: NBA: Kevin Durant has 37, Brooklyn Nets beat Utah Jazz 114-106 to extend good stretch,“Just talking with the training staff and continuing the process of making sure our players who have been injured or who are recovering from injuries are getting the care they need and the rest they need and not subjecting them to risk,” Kerr said. “These decisions are based on process, not on the results of the previous night’s games.”,Miami couldn’t hit anything to start the second half. That’s when the Heat contemplated hitting one another. Also read: LeBron James scores 35, Los Angeles Lakers beat Toronto Raptors in 128-123 win,Golden State started the third quarter on a 19-0 run — capped by three 3-pointers from Poole from 31, 35 and 30 feet respectively, two of them banked in from just in front of the Heat bench to make a disastrous start even worse for Miami. And during a huddle during a timeout during that Warriors’ flurry, tempers flared on the Miami bench. Butler and Udonis Haslem exchanged words, both needing to be held back by teammates. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra appeared to have words with Butler as well.

Golden State wasn’t flustered in the least. Back-to-back layups by Kuminga gave the Warriors the lead to stay, and a trio of 3-pointers — by Lee, Payton and then Poole — just about sealed things, putting Golden State up 105-95 with 4:21 left.

The Warriors won for the first time in their last four trips to Miami. Golden State’s last win on the Heat home floor was Dec. 3, 2017. Heat: Olympic sprinting legend Usain Bolt of Jamaica was in the crowd. It was the second straight loss to a short-handed opponent. Miami lost in Philadelphia on Monday when the 76ers were playing without James Harden and Joel Embiid. Up next,Warriors: Visit Atlanta on Friday.

San Antonio needed the jolt, even with the struggling Lakers without LeBron James. The Spurs had lost four straight with Popovich on the precipice of matching the record, and they were in danger of extending that skid with a late collapse as James sat the game out with a sore left knee. Dejounte Murray had 26 points and 10 rebounds, and Poeltl and Richardson each had 18 points. Richardson was making his first start with San Antonio. Talen Horton-Taylor had 18 points to lead Los Angeles, and Russell Westbrook, Malik Monk and Carmelo Anthony added 17 points each. Popovich has five NBA titles and is a lock for enshrinement in the NBA Hall of Fame after a career in which he's coached Spurs greats including David Robinson, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili. Robinson sat courtside Monday, and Popovich jokingly told him to check into the game during a time. These aren't the same Spurs from Robinson's prime. San Antonio is 25-40, already assured of a third straight losing season after 22 consecutive finishes over .500. Monday's game nearly got away, too. The Lakers pulled within 108-105 on Horton-Taylor's jumper with 5:40 left, and the Spurs were scoreless for nearly four minutes before Poeltl's free throw with 37.4 seconds left. Los Angeles never got closer than three, though. The just played a little smarter than us down the stretch, LA guard Malik Monk said. The Lakers were without James and Anthony Davis. James was a late scratch Monday after scoring a season-high 56 points Saturday in a victory over the Golden State Warriors. Los Angeles had lost four straight and seven of eight prior to James' highest point total with the Lakers, which matched the third highest of his career. It's kind of frustrating that we have a great win like we did against Golden State and Lebron's knee is a little sore and he's got to miss and we take a little step back, Monk said. We've got to do a better job and figure things out as a team when he's out.

The Lakers remained in the game by cutting to the rim without the ball for open layups, drives to the basket and the Spurs' poor free-throw shooting. San Antonio was 16 for 30 on free throws, including 6 for 14 in the third quarter. TIP-INS,Lakers: James has missed 17 games this season due to various injuries, including abdomen and ankle ailments.

Also Read | NBA: Towns scores 39 as Wolves inflict Warriors' 6th loss in 8 games,Dallas trailed 100-94 with seven minutes to play before scoring 11 consecutive points in a rally kicked off by Brunson's fourth 3-pointer. Doncic went 9 of 21 and looked significantly less sharp than in most previous games during his monthlong scoring tear, but made enough big baskets to win it. LeBron James scored 26 points and Carmelo Anthony had 20 for the Lakers, who took their sixth loss in seven games despite erasing a 21-point deficit in just over 12 thrilling minutes spanning halftime. Despite giving a much better effort against Dallas than in its most recent games, Los Angeles has lost 15 of 21 to slide a season-worst seven games below .500, with even its position in the postseason play-in tournament looking increasingly tenuous. Los Angeles is 0-3 since the All-Star break. Also Read | NBA: Jayson Tatum shines as Boston Celtics down Atlanta Hawks 107-98,Two nights after the Lakers were booed by their home fans in a lifeless blowout loss to New Orleans, James and his teammates had the crowd applauding their effort and comeback — but the result was the same. Dallas wrapped up a five-game road trip with four victories, but only after surviving a largely poor second half. The Mavs jumped to their big lead during a first half highlighted by Doncic's incendiary one-handed putback dunk over Dwight Howard late in the first quarter. The first half looked like another wreck for the Lakers, who got three technical fouls for arguing amid their missed shots and lapsed defense. Coach Frank Vogel, Kent Bazemore and Russell Westbrook, who missed eight of his first nine shots, all got rung up.

SWITCHING DJs,After essentially standing pat with an ugly hand at the trade deadline, the Lakers on Tuesday waived disappointing center DeAndre Jordan and signed veteran point guard D.J. Augustin and journeyman forward Wenyen Gabriel. The newcomers weren't yet in town, but should be available later this week. TIP-INS,Mavericks: Dallas avenged a loss at home to the Lakers in December while Doncic was sidelined with an ankle injury. ... Spencer Dinwiddie had 14 points and nine assists. Lakers: They also waived two-way forward Sekou Doumbouya to create a second roster spot. ... Avery Bradley missed his fourth straight game with a right knee injury.
