Kareem Abdul-Jabbar arrived for Game 6 with a shaved head and a determination to close out this series….but for a while it appeared like the Celtics would steal it….as Magic Johnson had only four points at the half….and Dennis Johnson poured in 18 for the Celtics on his way to a game-high 33 as Boston led 56 – 51 at halftime.
During halftime, as seen in this video herewith…..NBA on CBS At The Half is hosted by Brent Musburger….along with two special Hall of Fame guests Oscar Robertson and Jerry West, provide analysis and assessments of the 1st half of action….with additional viewpoints on what must transpire in the 2nd half to come out of this game a winner.
