When Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant joined the Los Angeles Lakers for the 1996-97 season, expectations were high that they would form the backbone of the next great Laker championship team. Unfortunately, spectacular talent doesn't always yield spectacular results, and after the team was swept out of the 1998 and 1999 playoffs, Lakers management brought in the ultimate coach: Phil Jackson, who won six championships with the Chicago Bulls. Once again the Lakers were expected to win it all. This official NBA championship video follows the Lakers' exciting 1999-2000 season as they overcame an early injury to Bryant to post the most wins (67) in the NBA. Under Jackson's guidance, O'Neal improved his focus, conditioning, and maturity to become the dominant player in the game and win the MVP award. In the playoffs, the Lakers struggled a bit against the Sacramento Kings, the Phoenix Suns, and the deep and talented Portland Trail Blazers, but they survived and moved on to the NBA Finals against the Indiana Pacers. The second half of the video covers this "Hoosiers against Hollywood" series, with game film as well as glimpses of postgame press conferences and the Lakers' locker room and training room. Also included are footage of the Lakers' victory celebrations in the locker room and back in L.A., and a music video of Bon Jovi's "It's My Life." Laker fans will find this a memorable souvenir of what may be merely the first step of the next basketball dynasty. --David Horiuchi

THE LA LAKERS WERE THE BEST TEAM THIS 2000 NBA SEASON AND GOOD RUN THROUGH THE PLAYOFFS AND BEAT THE PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS FOR THE WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP AND MADE A GAME 7 COMEBACK IT WAS A MIRACLE, FORGET THE SAN ANTONIO SPURS THAT TEAM SUX... THE LAKERS WERE BETTER
Good DVD, but save your money November 23, 2005

Regardless of what Laker haters may think, the LA Lakers totally deserved their NBA championship in 1999-00. I knew when Phil Jackson got named in as their coach, they would win a title the very same year. Have you noticed why Shaq & Kobe are called "the combo"? Together on the lakers they pulled a 1-2 punch that was unstoppable. I'll never forget that last play of the Western Conference Finals in 2000 against the Portland Trailblazers. Kobe moves with speed & grace of a running back. When he swerved and cut his way inside by the basket on a layup, I knew that Shaq would slam it in.
The DVD was great but save your money. There is a set out now that will let you relive all the memories (including complete games) of the title runs in 2002, 2001, 2000, 1988, 1987, the earlier 80's as well as a complete game from 1972. It is available on 5 discs for about $50. Why get championship highlights for one year when you get the complete history for the same price. It has this disc on it...

The only reason this video even exists is because LA got lucky. There was doubt that the Portland Trailblazers were the better team, and they had that Game 7 in the bag, until the officals decided to help the Lakers back into the game so they could have them in the finals to keep the ratings up. No one wanted to see the old Portland Trailblazers in the finals against the Pacers. You had to have the circus freak Lakers in there with Kobe and Shaq to keep the little kids happy. Remember, this was the first full NBA season following the embarressing lockout-shortening season where the ratings took a nosedive. The Lakers are nothing more then a recycled Chicago Bulls team with Phil Jackson's ENTIRE coaching staff, and a few former Bulls with the likes of Ron harper, Horace Grant, among others. AS a Bulls fan, I was so upset about Phil going to LA, and even more upset about him winning it alongside those punks Shaq and Kobe. Luck ran out on the Lakers this past season when the Spurs waxed them, and I hope it happens again!
the start of the RUN!!!! June 13, 2002

Lots of higlights, interviews with all lakers players including the coach phil jackson. The dvd higlights the lakers season from preseason to the finals and mention a short story 3 years past when kobe and shaq arrived.
Thou it is an exellent feature of the lakers season it lacks many season highlits wich showed their progress over the season under jackson.
At the finals I expected to see more coverage of the lakers-portland series (which was the real finals, here the lakers got the championship ring), It should have been longer than the lakers-pacers series coverage at the finals.
A must have for a lkaer fan and anyone who loves basketball!!!
