For part one of our series looking at Game 7s of the NBA Finals, Jason and Rich discuss the Boston Celtics vs. St. Louis Hawks in 1960, Minneapolis Lakers vs. New York Knicks in 1952, and Boston Celtics vs. Milwaukee Bucks in 1974.

Topics discussed include Bob Cousy’s stardom and when Bill Russell became the face of the Boston Celtics dynasty, the fierce Hawks vs. Celtics Finals rivalry in four of five Finals, George Mikan and the Minneapolis Lakers’ dynasty in the early 1950s, the scrappy New York Knicks who fell in the three NBA Finals in a row, the last gasp of the Milwaukee Bucks’ 1970s run with Oscar Robertson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and the bulldog 1970s Celtics led by Dave Cowens, John Havlicek and Jo Jo White.
