This video is about the 1996 chicago bulls with michael jordan, dennis rodman and scottie pippen. The first reason is the chemistry on the bulls team.
now if you have watched the last dance documentary than you know that the 96 bulls also had their scuffels and also some times
had practices with some incidents. still that is something pretty normal in team sport.
But all in all this team was on a mission and on court you could really see their chemistry.
the result was beautfitul team basketball from player one to player 12.
This team was also blessed with many good passers, if it was a pippen or a luc longley. Players with great courtvision,
that were perfectly suited for the triangle offense.
And the next reason was the determination of michael jordan. We all know that michael jordan was a highly competive player. probably the craziest
we have ever seen. but in the 96 season michael jordan reached a new level of determination. But why was that. well one season prior he got emarrased by the orlando magic in the playoffs, and this made jordan work harder than ever before. And the result was that michael jordan came back in the shape of his live, and this to me was prime michael jordan.
Defense. So this reason right here is one reason that to me often gets overlooked. But again this could easily be the biggest difference maker to all the other teams in the goard conversation. the bulls had the best defensive team of all time. As good as the bad boys pistons, but without the brutality.
Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and dennis rodman are 3 of the top 10 best defenders of all time. But then you also had ron harper, one of the best guard defenders of his era, plus John Spider Salley and James edwards of the bad boy pistons and the other guys were also pretty solid.
The Bulls would only allow 92 points per game, which was pretty great if you take into consideration what a fast pase game they played.
And the next reason i have on my list is the growth of scottie pippen. When jordan had retired a few years prior to 96, scottie pippen suddenly was the main guy on the bulls team. and this was the best thing that could have happened to him in order to grow as a basketball player.
he now had the responsibility to carry the team every night and he did it in a spectacular way almost winning the mvp award that year.
now when michael jordan came back scottie pippen was even more of a leader and was able to carry the team when michael jordan needed a break.
you could see that scottie had a different kind of confidenc e and was now a true nba superstar.
And the next reason was the increable chicago bulls bench. As a NBA Fan you know this, a team is only as good as its bench. And the chicago bulls had a incredible bench in 1996. Steve kerr, percentage wise the best 3 point shooter of all time. he was the perfect addition to the team. once he was open you can count on a made 3 pointer. then as i already mentoined john spider salley, but also the perfect role players in randy brown, jud buechler, bill wennington, and of course the best sixth man of the year toni kukoc.
Toni Kukoc would have been a super star on any other team. But with the bulls he came of the bench. A player that could score, handle the ball, pass and shoot from anywhere. Plus this guy was clutch as ....
And the next reason that i have on my list, is the mental toughness. From the phsychological side there is no team that could compete with them.
mj and rodman where the masters of the phycological part of the game. and all the other players followed in their footsteps. this is something you could see in almost every single game
