Nope we stepped over/on the Pistons in order to become the most dominating NBA team for a full decade EVER, that includes Bill Russell's Celtics teams, Showtime Lakers, Boston teams featuring five HOFers [that the 6'6" guard from Nooooorth Carolina dropped 63 on in an early career play off loss.] Truth the Bad Boys were good for their short run, but they cannot compare ant two of your Bad Boys came to Chiraq for at least four rings.
