Exactly 21 years ago today, Vinnie Johnson made history, sealing Detroit's second consecutive NBA title. NY Times, June 15, 1990: ''After Isiah passed the ball to me, I looked up at one point and saw four seconds left on the clock,'' Johnson said. ''I let two seconds go by, then gave Kersey a head fake. He had to honor it, because there wasn't that much time left. I took one dribble to my left and let it go. There was a lot of pressure. No way I'm going to say I knew that it was going in. But it was just beautiful to see it go in.''
