The Lakers and Celtics battled for the 1969 NBA championship, and it came down the very end of Game 7. Bill Russell, Sam Jones, and John Havlicek of the Celtics starred against Jerry West, Elgin Baylor, and Wilt Chamberlain of the Lakers. One of the most competitive Finals ever, Russell and Jones would ultimately retire at the end of the series.
