In fairness, the Bulls front office made some acquisitions that are integral in forming a championship team. They knew MJ was their franchise player, along with the coaching staff's recommendations, they did some moves to get players to help MJ. Then the maturity came: MJ began to trust his team mates, he embraced the system Phil wanted him to understand, MJ pulled Scottie to be tough mentally as him, and the rest followed.

The Title: See, this is what people don't understand about 'The Bad Boys', The Detroit Pistons from 1987-1991, it wasn't a one-on-one or two-on-one game, it was about half court execution with the Pistons and using their entire team to dismantle an opponent MENTALLY. The game the Pistons played was so 'mental' that upon the Pistons losing and ending their championship run, THEY ENDED THEIR OWN CHAMPIONSHIP RUN, nobody beat them. Want proof? The proof is what actually happened. Look at what the Pistons did in the 1991 Eastern Conference Finals: Isiah Thomas took just 9 shots in game 1 and just 9 shots in game 2; Joe Dumars took just 10 shots in game 1 and only 10 shots in game 2; Bill Laimbeer took only 7 shots in game 1 and just 2 shots in game 2 while Pistons coach, Chuck Daly played John Salley only 9 minutes in game 2 while playing James Edwards only 11 minutes in game 2 and just 9 minutes in game 3. Well, if your scorers don't shoot and your coach doesn't play your front court guys major minutes, what will happen against anyone? You will lose. If Detroit did this in 1991 vs. Atlanta or vs. Boston, they would have lost. If Detroit did this in 1990 vs. Chicago or in the Finals in '90 vs. Portland, THEY WOULD HAVE LOST. Detroit did this in 1991 against a Bulls' team they were 26-9 against eliminating them 3 straight seasons from 1988-1990. So their scorers chose not to shoot and their coaching staff decided not to play Salley and Edwards in games 2-3 and they expected to win? Do you really believe that Michael Jordan could take just 9 shots in game 1 and 9 shots in game 2 while Pippen could take just 10 shots in game 1 and only 10 shots in game 3 while Grant could take only 7 shots in game 1 and just 2 shots in game 2 while Phil Jackson could play Cartwright only 9 minutes in game 2 while playing Grant only 11 minutes in game 2 and just 9 minutes in game 3 of any series, much less the 1991 ECF and the Bulls would actually win? Do you really think that if this took place in 1991 vs. Detroit or even in 1993 vs. New York that somehow the Bulls would be trying to win that series? Well, that's what the Pistons did and yet everyone talks about how 'great' the Bulls were or how Jordan 'overcame' Detroit? No, the Pistons did this 100% on their own. Officials/Injuries: The Pistons didn't lose the 1991 ECF due to the injuries they had (5 of their 8 man rotation injured) and the officials giving Chicago a 117-76 foul shot attempt advantage from games 1-3, which if you do the math, just on simple math, there's no way Detroit could have won any of the first 3 games: Game 1: Chicago won 94-83, Chicago shot 37 foul shots, Detroit 15; Game 2: Chicago on 105-97, Chicago shot 45 foul shots, Detroit 25; Game 3@The Palace: Chicago won 113-107, Detroit shot 36 foul shots, Chicago 35. Just do the math, you get 117 foul shots, your opponent gets only 76. That's 41 more foul shots Chicago received over Detroit, so that's 13 more foul shots Detroit could have received from games 1-3 just if you wanted to be fair and even. That season, the Pistons shot 76% from the line, ironically, the Bulls shot 76% from the line as well. So see, you have an EVEN series. Chicago won by 11 in game 1, so that's 22 more foul shots by the Bulls (37-15). Game 2, Chicago won by 8 and received 20 more foul shots than Detroit (45-25). So you see? ... When you actually have such a foul shooting disparity for one team than the other when both teams shoot 76% from the line and Detroit has eliminated Chicago 3 straight seasons. Off the bench, for the Pistons, Mark Aguirre averaged 19 points per game in games 1-3 while Vinnie Johnson averaged 25 points per game. See, so that's Detroit's bench. So yes, Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, and Bill Laimbeer had to not shoot from games 1-3, Thomas and Laimbeer took off games 1-2 and Dumars game 2. The Pistons lost the 1991 ECF on purpose, Chuck Daly did his part and the refs did their part, those are the facts, that's the bottom line. So let's say you don't believe this, well what did the Pistons do in the summer of 1991? Pistons GM, Jack McCloskey waived Vinnie Johnson and traded James Edwards to the Clippers. So ask yourself: Why would the Pistons break up their title-contending team? Even if you felt you lost for whatever reason, why not go back and get revenge? Why break up the team? You lost in '87, didn't break up the team, you added James Edwards in '88, you lost in '88, didn't break up the team, just added Mark Aguirre in '89 for Dantley, in '89 you lost Mahorn in the expansion draft and still won in 1989-90. So you lost in '91, so why not improve? Why break up that team? So Vinnie Johnson and James Edwards are scorers and Edwards has size and Johnson was named, 'The Microwave' due to his ability to heat-up in a hurry. So you replace them with Darrell Walker, who was a non-scorer and Orlando Woolridge an under-sized power forward who couldn't rebound, had no size and couldn't create his own shot in the post. So now your game is stagnant. Detroit went from an injured team in 1990-91 trying to 3-peat going to 4 straight NBA Finals still winning 50 games and making it to the ECF with Johnson/Edwards to being totally healthy in 1991-92 without Edwards/Johnson winning only 48 games and losing in the first round to the Knicks -- that's the impact of James Edwards and Vinnie Johnson, two rounds. Chicago went from winning the title in 1993 with Jordan to not having him in '93-'94 and losing in the 2nd round -- that's a two round decline. When Jordan came back in 1994-95 with 17 games left, Chicago didn't have Horace Grant, they lost in the 2nd round, that's a two round decline. The Bulls get Rodman in 1995-96 with Jordan and win the title, a 2 round upgrade, also the had Salley and Edwards on the downside of their careers having to face the likes of Mourning, Ewing, Shaq, and possibly Hakeem, well with Rodman for the next two seasons without Edwards/Salley they win the title. You need a front court who can rebound, defend, and take care of the boards, even with Jordan, Chicago couldn't win with a power forward like Grant or Rodman, that's a two round decline. Detroit lost Mahorn in '89 and still won the title, they lose Edwards/Vinnie Johnson in '91 and have a two round decline.

They were in their twilight … it’s the truth you act like it was 88-90 Detroit … he couldn’t beat them in their PRIME. Then in 1991 he cried so much they created the flagrant foul system to restrict the physical play and in combo with an older Detroit finally got over Mt Everest … Detroit beat him while in his prime and Magic and Larry as well. They would’ve three peated first if not for a bullshit phantom foul against LA in 88. MJ never beat Boston in the prime, beat a declining Detroit dynasty, and beat an old Lakers squad without Kareem in their twilight.

@@TalkMyShiit You ignored the argument where ages were given & they were by no means "old". And Rodman was still young. You mean they played within the unspoken agreement to let teams VIOLATE the rules. Even when the rulebook was more lax, Detroit was the most egregious in violating them. Bill Lambeer? He would literally *try* to injure players, such as by positioning his foot underneath guys when they landed. They never should have gotten away with it; if they think they were so tough, let them play against professional fighters & have no rules so they can see how many plays it was before they all were knocked unconscious. That is why it was so satisfying for people when "Big Chief" Robert Parish took revenge against Lambeer-who even his own teammates did not like-with that infamous smash. A foul was not even called on the play! Normally I would oppose such Wild West B-Ball. But the Pistons played & were the Bad Guys.
