[Vintage] Sixers vs Lakers 1980 6th Final NBA Game - Rookie's Magic Johnson on center

[Marcos29]

With Kareem Abdul-Jabbar not making the trip back to Philadelphia to rest his injured ankle and Norm Nixon playing with a sore thumb on his shooting hand, many thought this would be an easy win for the Sixers. Paul Westhead started rookie Magic Johnson at center and moved Michael Cooper into the starting lineup at guard. Magic would score 22 points in the first half and Jamaal Wilkes would live up to his nickname of "Money" by scoring 25 points in the second half. It would be a fast-paced game that seesawed back and forth in the first half after L.A. started the game with a 7-0 run. After being tied at the half, L.A. opened the third with a 14-0 run to give them a 74-60 lead. Wilkes would have 16 points in the third period alone. Despite its undersized lineup, L.A. pounded Philadelphia on the boards. Philadelphia would cut the Laker lead to two points on three occasions in the fourth quarter. The last time would be at 103-101, but Los Angeles would close the game with a 20-6 run as their fastbreak had worn down the Sixers.

"Historical NBA game", Jabbar was injured and Magic Johnson player on center position, and he played spectacular, he was rookie!!!
