Detroit Pistons 1988/89 Documentary | Motor City Madness | 1st Bad Boys 'Chip 

Ah the good ol days of renting VHS tapes. Nothing was quite as exciting as getting a movie you really wanted to see. Now the shits free and a click away anytime 😂

Magic Lakers and Bird Celtics were already the highlight of the NBA before the Pistons started making noise.

@@jaychild78 Yeah but also the Pistons and Bulls were the reason that the NBA didn't die down, post Magic/Bird era

@@brandonjohnson3797 Michael Jordan was the reason the NBA survived after Magic and Bird.

@@jaychild78 I literally just said that lol

Man so true

The call on laimbeer was total bullshit.I agree

But thanks to Byron Scott’s and Magic Johnson’s injuries, the Pistons got their revenge against the Lakers in the Finals the following year. Breaks go both ways and by the way it was Game 6 of the Finals.

Okay that is pretty legendary

Sir Charles eventually got his championship with the Rockets.

@@schoolcraftT Charles Barkley never won a championship.

💯💯💯💯💯

The era of 2022 is a era of Drama queens and cream puffs.Crybabys ..........

@@calvinhaskett6190 that’s said about every current state of basketball. In the 80s the bigs and wings were said to have been inferior to Wilt, a prime Kareem, Willis Reed, and guards like Nate “TIny” Archinold, and Oscar Robertson of the past. In the 90s and 00s KG was too young with Iverson and Kobe were disrespectful to the game with Iverson “carryon the ball,” Kobe “hot doggin,” and too much “playground ball.” T-Mac should’ve went to college because he was “crying about zone defense.” Now today’s game is supposedly “too soft.”

Amen #80's🏀

@@mobetta2092 I dare you and Calvin to play against todays players lmaooo let’s see if they soft

@@wilsonbrito9565 I’m quoting what people have said about each era in order to prop up the past. You ask me today’s era and no other era was soft.

Not true.

@@jaychild78 Isiah isn’t but Dumars is and as a combined duo they are. Vinnie Johnson should be mentioned more often with them as a trio…the best backcourt trio ever.

@@mobetta2092 I agree they underrated as a duo that much is very true.

Them my Boys too but yea u just can't mention them without Vinnie heck not just that but Vinnie had been there in Detroit before Joe lol 😂 Not that it matters I lovem all the same!.!.! Summer 1988 89 90 let's go!!!

Those back to back championship teams are underrated.. 89’ 90’ Bad boys Pistons

💯💯💯💯

22:20 damn look at Rodman flying in across the screen like a UFO!

Bill Laimbeer never committed foul in his life. Just watch his reaction every time the referee whistled him for a foul. So in closing he was innocent of any foul he was charged with in over 10 years of play. Laimbeer also went over 10 years without ever creating his own shot off the dribble.

Liar. Fake news. Get over it bro.

Yeah literally a robbery

the 80 82 and 87 finals mvp's should've been awarded to kareem abdul-jabbar

Had the Lakers not given away games 2 and 4 to the Celtics in '84, Kareem would've won the Finals MVP that year too.

the 80 82 and 87 finals mvp's should've been awarded to kareem abdul-jabbar

Ironically at the time, outside of Michigan it was said this kind of basketball was savagely played.

The best !

And to bring in the 90s

Should of known now bye the way they was playing that second half of the season that they was on a mission heck

In that moment Zeke wanted the smoke but of course he’s thankful that Mahorn didn’t feel threatened at all and just played him like a kid brother (btw I saw Rick Mahorn in person at the airport and he’s a tall and big imposing mf’kuh with shoulders wide as 2 veteran coal miners standing side by side. I immediately thought of Isiah attempting to punch him and realized why Mahorn laughed it off). And yea, that expansion draft pissed me off. I was glad Mahorn was able to get to a contending Philadelphia team.

Aint no 6 ft 180lb man gonna fight a guy 6\10 275 lb anywhere in the world. That ain't about NO SMOKE, that's common damn sense, gtfoh.

Same in just about most professions. College professors, doctors, lawyers when not in court but at the firm, professional sports coaches, federal agents, advertisers, etc….suits aren’t being worn.

@@mobetta2092 "Suits aren't being worn"..... Duly noted. What about the grown men wearing dresses part though???

@@godstatus1333 I’m with you on there because that I CANNOT and WILL NOT get with that (I’ve even ingrained in my 2 sons who are 11 and 15 how feminine that appears and they won’t dare wear a pair of those crappy things).

@@godstatus1333 my bad homie for getting off course because your original comment is 💯 on point and my response was off course from the point you were making

@@mobetta2092 That's 💯💯💯💯💯💯 PERCENT PEACE. I likes your style SUN!!!! Thanks king. You are a great father.

After game 3 of the Easter Conference Finals Michael Jordan called the Pistons "unworthy champions." and said “The Bad Boys are bad for basketball.” That is why some Pistons didn't shake the Bulls hands.

@@redrocker1055 Yeah...... I remember that. But there is still a level of professionalism that has to be shown. Just sayong.......

@@godstatus1333 but Isiah has since acknowledged that it was wrong and Jordan and his fans are still traumatized 30yrs later and annoyed that Isiah’s smiling and has moved on.

@@godstatus1333 Why aren't you holding Jordan to that same level of professionalism? Or Bird? Bird walked off the court in '87 after losing to the Pistons. Absolutely no one gave him grief over it. Just the Pistons get held to a high standard.

@@redrocker1055 AGREED........

You have no clue what you're talking about

Lakers needed a bad call to win in 88...ure on crack

@@frankkitchenhoff7732 Thomas got injure as well so no doubt pistons should’ve had a 3 peat as always nba favors big markets been going on forever

Or the Lakers would’ve lost in 88 if not for Isaiah’s ankle injury. That seems more likely.
