I hate when people have to go to extremes to defend their viewpoint

the bulls couldnt sweep an atlanta team who had steve smith and christian laettner as their leading scorers...yet theyre winning all games at oracle with our crowd ?

and you say this without watching how reggie got open over and over on mj off picks and screens?

its double trouble with the warriors, its not that easy

it sounds easy to stop but its not because both guys feed off each other

if reggie by himself could get open off screens so would steph and klay

how about the fatigue factor chasing the splash brothers all over the court? you dont think that affects other players?

Dude you realize that the Dutchman big 7 ft plus dude was eating the Bulls up. Him, Daughty, Shaq and Ewing is the reason the Bulls always carried 3 or 4 centers.

The pacers would run a screen action with the Rik Smits and Miller. You pick your poison. Smits could roll to the basket where he would finish at will if he was close or miller would pop out for the jumper.

During that time the pacers and Knicks were the best screening teams because their Centers and PFs were huge and physical.

Those screens the Warriors and other teams set are totally different than what the pacers ran.

Trust a screen that Smits or the Davis brothers or Anthony Mason ran is nothing like a screen from green or Barnes or Thompson.

I think steph would get his. But MJ and PIP would get Barnes and Thompson in foul trouble. Rodman would get into Greens head with his antics. Rodman was taught by Laimbeer, zeke and Mahorn. No one could get into players heads like them dudes.

Dudes bytch about Delly being a pest.....lord what would they do with Rodman.


I would have love to seen rodman vs green:pachaha:

i didnt say he couldnt guard green, i said hes never dealt with a guy at the 4 or 5 who pushes the fast break like green. thats one of the major problems with dealing with the warriors

Don't matter rodman use to guard pip.....you know he pushed the fast break as well as anyone who has ever played basketball.

Rodman guarded magic.....you telling me a 6-9 man weighing 220 points fast breaking on one of the greatest teams in the history of the NBA wouldn't get Rodman ready to guard Green?

i doubt rodman ever dealt with a guy who pushes the ball like green down the court and leads the fast break


its a interesting conversation, the reality is the bulls never had to deal with 2 dead eye shooters like steph and klay continuously coming off picks over and over


i know reggie and mike had their battles but reggie never had a klay to help him spread the floor

:laff: RODMAN USED TO GUARD JORDAN AND MAGIC
BUT HE CANT GUARD DRAYMON GREEN?


:devil:
:evil:
