The Pistons became just the 3rd NBA franchise in 1990 to win "Back to Back" Championships, joining only the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics to do so. This very deep, extremely talented team was 2nd in the league in defense, lead by Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Dennis Rodman, James Edwards, Mark Aquirre, Bill Laimbeer, Vinnie Johnson, John Salley, and the rest of the crew, finishing an impressive 59-23. With the best record in the East, Detroit knocked off the the best team in the West, the Portland Trailblazers. Portland came in with a 63-19 record, but the Pistons still easily won their 2nd straight NBA Championship defeating the Trailblazers 4 games to 1 in the NBA Finals. This large BALFOUR gold plated sample has all the proper markings (LGB BGP), along with serial numbers engraved, and is a size 11 to size 11.5, weighing 26.5 grams.
