Great game & editing on that one, thanks for posting. I almost forgot how damn good Hill once was, one can only imagine what he and Penny could have accomplished without all the injuries.
Its funny reading guys in their 20s or early 30s who never really got s chance too see how great the 80s and early 90s NBA. But yet try to compare the ERA's lol
Larry Legend Bird, Kevin Mc Hale, Dennis Johnson, Robert Parish,Reggie Lewis and Danny Ainge is a formidable team but not enough for the 72-10 Bulls! Put Scottie on Bird to give him trouble getting the ball and making his shots and Rodman on Mc Hale, and Jordan on Lewis! Now you got Harper, Kerr, and Kukoc running around! Too much work for the Celtics! Especially with Pipen on Bird! If Bird doesn't get the ball, the Celtics don't win! And the key would be to shadow Bird while Michael runs free!
No the second 3 peat Bulls would have beaten the 86 Celtics! Two of the best moving point forwards in Pipen(lead the league in steals(2) and Kukoc(3 point threat, best European player) Rodman on the boards(lead the league in rebounds for 7 straight years) Steve Kerr(Best 3 point shooting percentage and champion) and then there's Jordan(10x scoring champ, defensive player of the year, 3x steals leader) Not even the Great Bird and Mchale could have dealt with that and the fluidity that would come!
yea grant hill is great. he is very smooth overall, i would say, second to jordan.efficient type of player. i personally like watching him play over kobe or leborn. and penny was great too, too bad.exactly what would happen if these two guys had been healthy all the way to now?
Those who compare Jordan with Kobe... newer saw JMJ playing... Kobe at his best can't do same things that Jordan did at 35. MJ is just have much more better skill and he was so damn ATHLETICAL.... Jordan game style is so nice!!!!
Notice how at the :47 segment of this video, the Pistons are in a 2-1-2 zone & U hear "Illegal Defense" being screamed by someone & the refs NEVER called it..LOL!! During these days, the refs RARELY did.
Wow, what unreal fact? All I've said was Jordan couldn't do it without Pippen and Rodman. You really think that's unreal? How about I keep it simple and easy and shut your little mouth up, hm?
OMG I almost had a heart attack watching the last few minutes of regulation! This is so intense! Yet at the end the Bulls showed they're the champions and never lost their cool!
