So 1 year after going 7 with the Bulls they all of a sudden became geriatrics and could no longer even win a single game? The reason why they got swept is because
  • The Bulls had perfected the triangle and Jordan became harder to pin down
  • Pippen got considerably better and was playing extremely well throughout the 91 playoffs
  • Because Pippen came better and Grant became better, and because of the triangle, the Jordan Rules became obsolete.
And I posted the ages of all their most relevant players. You're trying to make it seem the Bulls swept them because they had become washed after only a year. You'rre deluded.
Isiah coming off a torn ligament in his wrist averaging 13/8 on 40% that’s a huge factor combined with some aging players and guys coming off several deep playoff runs.

Pistons wasn’t as good anymore. It’s just the truth even though I think they would have still lost with prime Isiah. The Bulls in that era are just flat out better than the Bad Boy Pistons.

TYRONE GA!
:francis: I hate the Celtics and I don’t give a fukk if their hoe asses were injured but they were injured breh.

And I don’t think LA would’ve gotten to 7 against Detroit in 89. Detroit was hungry Pat was starting to push the team away.

Injured is not being able to play. Like Magic and Byron in 89. Bird averaged 42 minutes a game that Finals. Mchale 30. Nah b. Never heard that shyt till today too.

Anyone with common sense knows this. Only people with agendas think otherwise. Bron and KD would be great players in any era.

Why should he? He beat him more (3 straight playoff eliminations of the Bulls). :yeshrug:

Beat the Showtime LWO, Celts, and Bulls. He can pop shyt even though all this shyt is arbitrary.

GOAT is still an opinion at the end of the day.

Bron definitely ain't runnin through the east then like he did fo sho
Not too sure about

Probably loses to the Celtics until they finally old (happened)
Probably beats the Pistons when their finally old (happened)
Probably loses to dominating big man and a team that can shoot the 3 in Orlando(happened)
And beat everybody else

Damn him and MJ really had the same track :mjgrin:
