Game 5 - Lakers 108, 76ers 96 The Lakers completed the most dominating single-season playoff run in NBA history, finishing off the 76ers in 5 games. In Game 5, the Lakers made 12 three pointers as a team to hold off any serious challenges from the 76ers. The final basket of the game came when Rick Fox attempted an alley-oop pass to Shaquille O'Neal, but the pass went in the basket for three points. The Lakers became the first Western Conference team to win back-to-back titles since the Rockets did it in 1994 and 1995. Phil Jackson became the first coach to win back-to-back titles with two different teams. This was the 20th consecutive playoff series Jackson won, an NBA record. The Lakers finished the postseason 15-1, eclipsing the 1982-83 76ers (12-1) for the best win percentage in a single postseason. O'Neal, the series MVP, led the way again with 29 points and 13 rebounds. Kobe Bryant had 26 points, 12 rebounds and six assists, despite boos raining down on him for the third consecutive game. Fox finished with 20 points. Allen Iverson scored 37 points to lead the 76ers, and left the court to chants of "MVP" when he was taken out of the game with 40.3 seconds left.
