I swear, you hear about one damn championship like both were a dynasty. The Mets done had like three or four 30 for 30s on their one championship era. Too bad the Cardinals deaded that run. The 08 Celtics been running stories for over a decade that you’d swear they won like 3 rings in their run.

Feel free to add on to one championship wonders that milk it for decades.

Edit: I could have included 97 scUM on the list as well, but you have to win a full championship to be considered in this.

08 Celtics because those three wouldn’t have won a ring without it pretty much

it pushed all three past guys like Vince and others of that generation.

Boston sports media still has enough power that it helped them a lot too like the made that team a bridge to the Bird Celtics and Russell Celtics.

(same for Dirk too)

The 86 Mets but the thing about that team is…

They have a legit claim as the best team of the decade, had a dynamic cast of characters, their NLCS vs Houston is legendary in its own right, and their win in Game 6 of the World Series is probably the single greatest World Series game ever.

There is a lot to milk there.

On the other hand, who gives a shyt about the 2008 Celtics? Nobody remembers anything about that season other than Kevin Garnett screaming nothing is impossible. They were a “big three” that won 1 title. Less accomplished in the 2000s than the Detroit Pistons.
