This is the ideal NBA. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

2004 NBA Eastern Conference Finals

Game 1: Pacers 78, Pistons 74
Game 2: Pistons 72, Pacers 67
Game 3: Pistons 85, Pacers 78
Game 4: Pacers 83, Pistons 68
Game 5: Pistons 83, Pacers 65
Game 6: Pistons 69, Pacers 65

Was a phenomenal series and really was the Finals that year. Gave us one of the greatest moments in NBA history too.

That was brutal. But the load management and player empowerment aspect of the game today is very, very frustrating. A kid that waits all year to see a certain player and when they go - he's "resting" man I hate that.

I was there lol - oh what a time.

Final answer: 2016. Feels like touch fouls have just taken off even more since then.

The bulls held the jazz to 54 points in a finals game. Doubt we ever see that again in any game. Lowest point totals for one team in a single game for a season now days is like 75

Last year a few teams only scored 75 in a game and that was the lowest.

In the 50s there was a game that ended 19-18
