I agree but I will say that watching the miami heat in the playoffs is very close to being this entertaining. Go back and watch their playoff run from last year.
@dcfly probably in 1990,1991 season then they lost to lakers in wcf I will never forget that it was our best year ever 63 and 19 and game 1 we had them beat up big late in 3rd quarter and blew it.i think that year we could have beaten bulls we had home court advantage.then 1992 finals losing game 3 after tying it up at 1 game the series was over
The '92 Bulls for some reason, struggled more than they should've in the postseason. I think it was just the situation of being the hunted. Knicks, Cavs, and Blazers all seemed to take them further than they should've gone. But Portland REALLY blew a chance to push it to the limit. Up 17 late in the 3rd...they should've won Game 6. The last gag job of that Blazers team that really underachieved.
it's nice to meet you and i'll say the 1992 blazers didn't play them as well in the playoffs as the 1992 cavs 1992 and 1993 knicks 1993 suns 1996 sonics 1997 jazz and 1998 pacers but more importantly the 1992 knicks didn't get past the semi finals like those other teams
@@hectorlopez1069 then why didn’t he ever do it? They never made it there to face bulls . This whole thing is ridiculous . Because jordan had a losing record vs Hakeem. He had a losing record vs Malone n Stockton in regular season also. We saw how that ended up🤣
That strip by Drexler (8:06) was amazing. Some people are just better than others. Clyde glyded there to show who is the best. Wow, Clyde was probably the best shooting guard of all time. No one would have enjoyed playing against him.
Forgot it actually was 2-2 after 4 games. The series seemed more like a blowout. However, I never thought the Bulls were in danger of losing the series. The Blazers had really good talent, but the Bulls were a far better team. The Blazers reminded me a little of the Buffalo Bills. A collection of talented players who didn't really gel as unit at the championship level. On offense they seemed to stand around too much playing one-on-one basketball - unlike the Bulls who had that triangle offense. A lot of times the Blazers would throw up a long jump shot and it seemed there was no one around contesting for an offensive rebound. That was different with the Bulls who always seemed to be putting pressure on the other team on the offensive and defensive end. They also didn't have that extra superstar player to compliment Drexler. Drexler was their go-to player, but they didn't have some one else they could get the ball too who they could count on to put the ball in the hoop. Drexler was also more of a slasher rather then a go-to player like Jordan or someone like Hakeem. The Blazers where very good, but they lacked a more comprehensive team system on the offensive end, and they also needed that extra superstar player to help them win the championship. Drexler later found it with the Rockets and Hakeem. Very good team. They just weren't the Bulls.
They had there chance against the Bulls. I think revisionist history causes many of us to only remember this series from MJ's iconic shoulder shrug game 1. But we forget how Portland bounced back and showed real TEAM character by winning game 2 in Chicago in OT. Obviously winning game 4 here and were a 4th quarter collapse away from taking it to a deciding game 7. I thought overall they had a respectable showing in there 2nd trip to the finals. They just had the misfortune of running into the historically under appreciated Bad Boy Pistons with prime Isiah, and the incoming dynasty of the 90's Bulls led by peak Jordan.
Had Sabonis been able to suit up for the late 80s/early 90s Blazers he would've been the Final piece to a title team at some point. They were just missing someone that could consistently score or create in the halfcourt when games slowed down.
Blazers should have won game 6. Up by 15 points in the 4th quarter, Jordan on the bench, the Bulls had basically conceded the game. Then the referees stepped in to “fix” things. The first 11 possessions by the blazers in the 4th quarter, the referees called highly questionable fouls against the blazers. The commentators even discussed how every call was going against the blazers
@@luigis.5671 Interesting. Didn't notice that! I was a Jordan fan, but he got a lot of 'friendly' calls in the finals. Basically, calls when nobody was around him.
Throwback NBA Playoffs 1994. Denver Nuggets vs Seattle SuperSonics Game 5 Highlights HD ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KU_mE7OpUQ0.html
This Portland team was no joke. Surrounded by shooters and guys who could score really well inside, it’s no wonder they nearly took the Bulls to 7 games.
Scottie was really a luxury to have as a wing man & on your team him Jordan both was just all around dominate on both sides of the floor !! I see why they were undefeated in the finals together
the bulls lost two games to the blazers by a combined 16 points but won by a combined 60 points with michael jordan scoring 35 ish points per game and they lost two games to the sonics by a combined 32 points and won by a combined 55 points with michael jordan scoring 27.3 points a game but i'm NOT fully aware of why this all happened so please tell me
Craig Hodges got shifted! He should have got alot more mins than he did. How can you be the best 3 point contest shooter of all time and never get no playing time! Was that TEXAS I MEAN TEXT WINTER WHO MADE THAT CALL???!!?
Nah bro that ain’t how it was played back then. Spot up shooters couldn’t defend or assists ain’t getting time like that. No one back then is going to leave you open all game to back then to bomb 3’ s
