Well, I guess that'll put a bow on the 1973 replay. Championship has been decided and the hardware has been awarded.
Let me know if anyone wants to see anything else, such as full team stats for a particular team, or any player 'actual vs replay' comparison, or things of that nature.

As we've come to expect, Game 6 is a doozy, so this is a thread of the game. Not a full play-by-play.
