  • The 1987 NBA Playoffs was the postseason tournament of the National Basketball Association's 1986-1987 season. The tournament concluded with the Western Conference champion Los Angeles Lakers defeating the Eastern Conference champion Boston Celtics four games to two in the Finals. The Lakers earned their 10th NBA championship, and Magic Johnson won his record third NBA Finals MVP trophy. Before 2008, this was the last time the Celtics and Lakers met in the NBA Finals though Boston threatened in 2002, making it to the Eastern Conference Finals before losing to the New Jersey Nets in six games. By making it to the Eastern Conference finals, the Detroit Pistons advanced farther in the playoffs than they had in the past 25 years. They would make their first NBA Finals appearance since 1956 the following season, the first of three consecutive trips to the championship round (winning the last two). The Golden State Warriors made their first playoff appearance since 1977, and the Indiana Pacers made their return to the playoffs after a six-year absence. By defeating the Dallas Mavericks 3 games to 1, the Seattle SuperSonics became the first #7 seed to defeat a #2 seed since the NBA playoff format was expanded to 16 teams at the end of the 1983-1984 season. They managed to reach the Western Conference Finals. One of the most memorable moments of this year's NBA Playoffs occurred in the final moments of Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals when, with Boston trailing by 1, Detroit's Isiah Thomas's pass intended for Bill Laimbeer was stolen by Boston's Larry Bird, who passed to Dennis Johnson for the game-winning basket.
