Lakers Vs Celtics And The NBA Playoffs should've been called Pistons vs Blazers And The NBA Playoffs since the Genesis port was based on the 1990 NBA Finals and neither the Lakers nor the Celtics made it that far.

Bulls vs. Blazers OP. Wasn't until '92 though

I'm talking about why the first one's called Lakers Vs Celtics And The NBA Playoffs even though neither team advanced to the Finals when the Genesis port came out in 1990.

So it should've been called Pistons vs Blazers And The NBA Playoffs in retrospect.

Even the halftime screen shows off highlights from either Larry Bird, Reggie Lewis, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Isiah Thomas, Dennis Rodman, James Worthy, Byron Scott, Charles Barkley, Rick Mahorn, Kevin Johnson, Tom Chambers, Clyde Drexler, Kevin Duckworth, David Robinson and Willie Anderson

Too bad you have to play four 12 minute quarters when you play in the playoffs mode, whereas Electronic Arts helped make it to where you can adjust period lengths for playoff mode.

It's just the playoffs, not the Championship.

I guess EA thought Pistons v Blazers wouldn't be too glamorous like Lakers v Celtics.

It was really confusing when they started being magical girls in the next game.
