Most clips are from the 90's Rare NBA Fight Doc about the physicality back in the day, compared to the style of play nowadays. No players involved were seriously injured.
20:57 Edwing asking Jordan if he was ok after fouling him, amazing sportsmanship. This was a big deal back them because of the franchises rivalry but even then they never forgot what was important.
3:50 I remember watching THIS game, during my senior year of high school. I remember looking at Phil Jackson that particular game, looking back, and realizing that I was looking at a multi multi multi year championship winner.
Scott Skiles STILL holds the single-game assist record at 30...and he's held it only 5 years less time than Kareem's all-time scoring record. I don't think Ja, Steph, Cp3, or anybody else is going to break it anytime soon. It may stand for another generation...and they say this generation of players are better. Pfffft...
Skiles emailed me back many times as a kid. Class act. 2004-05 season still the most exciting since 1998. Skiles took that team from nowhere as did Paxon. I never understood why Pax deferred drafting and free agency to Gar Formannafter building that team. Going back to 2004-05 the Bulls would have swept the Wizards if Curry stayed healthy. What a shame, Curry finally came into his own. Anyways, props to Skiles and his 30 assist game. Tough as nails too. Great coach
I've seen it all. I saw a G. Dope describes my rhymes, making all you emcees cold drop like dimes. You know MCSC is back again, and battling me on the microphone is like committing a sin. Scott/MCSC
1:18 crazy. Scottie Pippen threw a mf left hook, landed flush on Barnes face. No suspension. Just kicked out game. Regular ejection for a game early-mid 90s 😂
You MUST know these about me, to understand where, when and how I grew up, and why I think the way that I do: Born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American (showing HOW I grew up). I CANNOT understand or believe, that two guys who LOOK like John Paxson and Velottde Divac got technical fouls! Guys who look like them, don't get a lot of technical fouls.
1:02 How DARE a guy who LOOKS like Scott Skiles, stick his fists into Horace Grant's chin! Guys who LOOK like Scott Skiles, Jeff Turner, or John Paxson are NOT supposed to be fight-happy!
No disrespect to Mike Gmiski but if the Sixers had one more big man who could produce at least 20 & 10 on those Sixers teams with Mahorn and Barkley,I think Philly had some promise
I miss those days, basketball sucks today. Reason why I don't watch it in today's time. Too much politics!!! The sport has been ruined and no one cares.
Most of the players in this video couldn’t even get drafted in todays nba. They’re so athletically inferior to nba players it’s kind of surreal to watch these games (even though I grew up in this era) so many bricks and slow movers
you can blame fathers leaving their children & family. and now i can't wait to see what the kids of both mom and dad leaving the home and or not giving 2 shits about their kids. good thing I'll be old old by the time those kids grow up. oh shit... my dad has been dead 20+years, my mom is an alcoholic narcissist unhealed trauma surviver.... I'm one of those kids grown up! 😨 tunn tun tunnnnnnnnnnn
Wait. 90's? Didn't MJ say that Chicago could represent the NBA better than the Bad Boy Pistons? That they were a clean team that played pure basketball?
Let me tell you why I hate James Edwards: In the fall of 1991, I was 18 and living in California. Edwards had just been traded to the Clippers. My roommates and I were at the Beverly Center, and saw Edwards in the food court. I told him that I was also from Seattle. Suddenly, my roommate said to him, "Hey James! If I coached an NBA team, I wouldn't want you on it!" Edwards said, "What?!" My roommate said, "Yeah, you're very soft. You like to shoot jump shots, but would rather leave playing defense and rebounding for your teammates to do." Edwards crossed his arms. My roommate continued, "And, you never made an All-Star team." Just then, Edwards started walking towards my roommate! We pulled my roommate away, and said, "We were JUST about to leave." What a PRICK Edwards was! My roommate didn't say anything about his family, or racial. It was all SPORTS-related trash talk. Besides, Edwards could have said, "I've played 12 years in the NBA, earned over $10 million, and earned two championship rings. What have YOU accomplished?" As for the all-star team comment, Edwards should have said to my roommate, "You couldn't make an All-Star team for a junior high school team!" James Edwards should have been "above it."
True fans don't talk smack to opposing players when they see them in real life. They are respectful, and maybe get an autograph. Talking smack to big dudes usually doesn't result well for the guy running his mouth. You aren't lying about Edwards maybe taking the high road, but do not expect an NBA player to act differently than some random guy you start talking smack to.
Man please, the Bulls weren't tough, they were weak-minded and catered to by the refs and the league so everyone else was a 'bad' guy... Chicago was just weak and the league knew it; Jordan's ability was respected but the rest of those guys were clowns.
@@detroitcity27 Yeah, if you were around like in the teen years and above from 1991-93, you saw clearly Jordan had no real help... seriously, he had no real help like other guys... it's just that Jordan was so overwhelmingly great that other guys looked like high school players but most of those guys couldn't do their jobs as consistently as Jordan so they looked inferior -- all Jordan needed for his supporting cast is for them to do their jobs: make open shots, rebound, and make free throws... the other stuff his teammates did well like help defense and running their sets and setting screens.... Jordan carried those first 3 title teams 100%.
@@detroitcity27 Well the thing about Jordan is that his talent and ability and skill were all about constant improvement...now the media hyped up Jordan and protected him when it came to the 'worship' and 'be like Mike' thing... so they turned his talent into something vile which is why throughout, after Jordan (due to Jordan's ability to merchandise his talent and the league into multi-billions for the NBA) the league went down when it came to actual basketball...then it became about getting anyone who was a threat out of the way of this 'money', mainly the Pistons, who Jordan could not beat unless politics were in play and then the Pistons having to break up their championship roster to make it easier for #23...so after Jordan then Duncan/Robinson '99 won and then the Kobe/Shaq/Spurs thing and in '04 the Pistons won again all throughout the game was about individuals doing the Jordan-thing marking individual talent and not reality of actual team basketball...now you have this unfair comparison of James vs. Jordan where James couldn't compete in his own era -- a 60% loser in the NBA Finals.
