As a Bulls fan…. I fully agree. The Pistons taught the Bulls how to win. I remember those battles of the late 80’s. Golden age of the NBA.

[@luisrodriguez-mb7cc]

More than teaching the Bulls how to win, they gave them a more valluable lesson: you don´t have to win at all costs, and playing dirty doesn´t guarantee you championship rings. The 1990´s Bulls were more of a crossover between Bird´s intensive and will to win Celtics and Magic´s Showtime Lakers. Had MJ played those two years he missed playing Baseball and two additional years when everyone thought he had retired, we might be talking about nine or ten rings instead of six, hence this tictocker generation wouldn´t have a single argument on who´s the GOAT.

[@NewWorldDreams47]

​@@luisrodriguez-mb7cc just stop lol. They changed the rules for Jordan to win. The Pistons didn't play dirty, they played basketball just like the Lakers Celtics and 76ers. There's a reason Jordan couldn't win in the 80s, the toughest era of basketball. Jordan is the most overrated player ever, and all of his rings were manufactured by the league

[@luisrodriguez-mb7cc]

@@NewWorldDreams47 Another guy with serious mental problems. Listen dweeb and I'm going to say once, I hope after taking your medications you're able to understand: 1. No team won any titles during the 80's without at least two superstars in their prime side by side, the Lakers and the Celtics had three, the Pistons and the Sixers had two, Jordan was by himself, when Pippen came into the league he hadn't reached his full potential . 2. The fact Thomas was excluded from the 1992 dream team pretty much tells the story on how dirty his Pistons played, and it wasn' t just Jordan who wanted nothing to do with him: Malone, Pippen, Bird, none of these were willing to share playing time on the basketball court with him. 3. LBJ has never been able to win a title without at least a second superstar along his side. It' s not an opinion, check it out jerkoff. 4. Jordan won an MVP, best defensive player, highest scorer and dunk contest winner during 1988 with a crappy team except for Pippen playing with him. 5. No other player has been able to dominate a decade by himself like Jordan did during the 1990's except Bill Russell during the 1960's , and even he didn' t have the individual stats Jordan had. 6. Maybe you were swimming in your daddy's balls when Bird didn't want to shake hands with Thomas after an incident with Lambeer during 1986, and probably don't know that Malone elbowed Thomas on his face cutting him open causing him 25 stitches in a regular season game between Detroit and Utah. Why do you suppose he did that? Because Thomas and his teammates were choir buys? So before you start talking trash like Bird and Peyton did back in the day, at least stop taking drugs and get your facts straight.

[@tropicmix8765]

​@@NewWorldDreams47Jordan couldn't win in the 80s because Charles Oakley was his best teammate against loaded dynasties dude. He dropped 49 and 63 in back to back playoff games against a team with 4 hall of famers (Boston) and they STILL got swept.

God, what an example, sport is great in the emotions and friendships we can develop through it, but also in the rivalries we can have. Adversity is part of life, so is family. "Players only baby!"

[@DarkSunRidah67]

An apology & a hug is all it took after all these years. Kudos to you both.

[@jayfletcher4338]

Them breaking down at the end punched me in the stomach. Damn they got me crying. You could feel how much they were hurting being apart.

@@thomasanderson3892 yessir, all over the world. We're so focused on tearing each other down and the media pushes this negativity and fear so much.

I couldn't even tell they were mad at each other lol

[@comedianhaze1619]

charlie that’s how it supposed to go

[@rasheedahking3197]

They genuinely love each other. That's not anger its hurt. They betrayed each other media and the league forced that animosity same with Kobe and Shaq. Its sad they missed alot of good years together!

[@J_LouieG]

They were not mad at each other, that got swept under the rug when magic saw that isiah didnt distance himself with magic(having HIV), because almost all of magic's "friends" did. Karl malone wanted to be subbed out when magic was on the floor on that all star game lol

[@antonygonzalez813]

There friendship is love hate they hated each other for competitive reason but they love each other in side the nba and outside

Just amazing!!! and what similar story arcs of their lives. That statement Isiah made about what the Jacksons tried to tell them... 'They're going to try to separate you all' that speaks volumes of what success can do to even best of friends.

Mj and Charles need to do this

MJ has one giant ego, don’t think that’s gunna happen any time soon.

It will happen soon I think. MJ has changed and grown and realized you don’t need to be an asshole to people.

@@keith5801 I haven't seen evidence of that. He's still holding grudges against this man in this video about things that happened in the 80s.

Two different personality types Than Magic & Zeek. If Shaq & Barkley had a falling that'd be different

I had the same emotional episode with my befriend that i thought I lost due to a miss understanding. We spoke it out and cry it out. I miss my brother, but i push to go and see him.

At 36:20 Isiah looks like he's crying 20 years worth of tears. Whatever happened between Magic and Isiah had to have hurt them both very deeply.
