I'm sitting here right now watching Game 4 of the 1984 NBA Finals on Classic. Some interesting things about the 80s NBA and Today. There have 2 near bench clearing brawls in this game. One in which McHale closelined Rambis and then when Kareem elbowed Bird in the face. If this was today's NBA, there would have been ejections from the current game, and probably suspensions for future games. In this game, there were NO ejections, NO suspensions, and both teams continued to get after it.

I hope this series starting tonight can at least come close to the energy of these 80s series.
