From the Back Cover At the beginning of the 2001-02 NBA season, the Los Angeles Lakers were the two-time defending champions... at the end, they were an NBA DYNASTY! The daunting challenge of winning three titles in a row was put to the test in a grueling, seven-game series against the Sacramento Kings that found the Lakers on the brink of elimination. Led by perennial All-Stars Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, they swept the New Jersey Nets in the 2002 NBA Finals and forever put their stamp on history. Take an in-depth look into the Lakers' roller coaster season that culminated with a third straight championship. This official NBA collectible features exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes locker-room access, and heart-pounding game action. From Robert Horry's thrilling game-winning three pointers to Phil Jackson's inspiring on-court huddles, this DVD captures it all in championship fashion! 60 minutes.

Two dvd's Two mistakes
Its bad enough to make a mistake in the 2000 championship video by focusing on the finals rather the western cnference finals wich were the most thrilling.On that I can forgive because the finals against indiana still looked like a finals series.But on this dvd what excuse did the nba producers had to even mention the pitiful finals that occured between the lakers and the nets?they describe shortly the great lakers-kings match and focus against the practice games vs. nets, even the lakers-blazers match was a thriller compaired to the finals.I was really dissapointed and I think the nba producers should be replaced by others wich have more creative minds.Nonetheless, anyone who loves basketball should love this dvd wich is good until the finals scene starts.The covarage of the western finals are short but very intersting.

Excellent A must have for every Lakers Fan.
This is by far the best of the NBC Champions DVD/Videos from the last three years. They do a great job of weaving the whole story together; from the Hope's for a threepete at the beginning of the season; to the troubles during the regular season, such as losing to last place teams; to the first and second round blowouts and then the exciting semi finals with sacramental; to the sweep of New Jersey in the finals. Interspersed are wonderful interviews and highlights and also a lot of humor with of course Shaq. An excellent Job. Also the DVD is letterbox, looks and sounds wonderful and includes a lot of cool extras a LAKERS Video with a Dave Matthew's song, The Best Plays of the Playoffs which is fantastic, Shaq Daddy which is very entertaining, Kobe Vs MJ, A look Back - The Newest LAKERS Dynasty, LAKERS go fishin,' Mr Clutch Robert Horry and NBA Short Derek Fisher. This is a must have for every LAKERS Fan.

Shaq and Kobe Last Championship together
Good footage and interviews of Shaq n Kobe last Championship together. Best series was against the Sacramento Kings. Game 6 is controversial since many ppl think that it was rigged. Maybe it was. Game 7 was called fair and Lakers pulled it out in OT.

Great Retrospective
Regardless of what "Laker-haters" may think, this team was an incredible dynasty. Even when it seemed they were on the ropes, someone always stepped up (i.e.-Robert Horry). Jason Kidd was the true 2002 MVP, but the Lakers are still the champions. Sacramento may be upset, but it's their fault. They were challenging, but who won Game 7 of the Western Finals, on the road, in overtime? Kobe and Shaq was a 1-2 punch that was unstoppable. Even though the dynasty is over, they rank as one of the best teams of all time. This is a great DVD because of the inside footage, as well as the extras. Definitely a 10 in my book.

Kobe has always been my favorite player and I was very fortunate to see most ...
As a Laker fan I had to get this. Kobe has always been my favorite player and I was very fortunate to see most if not all his games. Had he and Shaq stayed together they would have won at least 7 rings (Knuckle heads) . Together they played some of the best basketball I have ever seen.

Great DVD and lots of great bonus features.
This DVD is GREAT. A MUST if you are a Laker fan because it recaps the entire Laker season, the ups and downs, and goes through each game of the playoffs.All I have to say to yuvallica is don't be jealous because the Kings can't step up to the pressure and knock down shots, especially free throws, in the clutch 7th game. Wow the fans must have had it hard to lose the 7th game of the Western Conference Finals at home, since it hasn't been done in 30 years!! Maybe the Kings will win it next year, if Kobe and Shaq retire!!
