1990: The Detroit Pistons make it back-to-back titles, as they edge the Portland Trail Blazers 92-90 on the road in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Vinnie Johnson leads Detroit to two separate 9-0 runs in the fourth quarter, each giving the Pistons a lead. The second ends the game, as 14-foot jumper with 0.7 seconds left wins the game as Isiah Thomas is named NBA Finals MVP. The game would mark the end of 17 years of the NBA on CBS.
