I miss this oldNBC intro!

[@andyward510]

Dabullsdabulls07 me too best intro ever

[@Shindler39]

Me too, I remember running to the T.V. just to watch the NBC intro and the game of the week.

[@naggersstank9252]

Seriously so much better than the ABC/TNT intros.

[@potentially__9445]

Best Sports intro EVER!!!

[@September2004]

I kinda think that the NBA should buy the theme from NBC just like the NHL should buy the hockey night in Canada theme.

[@ryansemrau7058]

The best intro of all time for any sport. It still puts chills down my spine. Gotta have marv with it too. Man I miss these days

[@SinistaMinista666]

Ryan Semrau NBA on NBC intros damn near had you ready to go to battle, lol. Almost made you feel like you were watching a war documentary instead of a basketball game.

[@summerghostomidworld1426]

These games just seemed...more important back then. Bigger and better, more tense. I miss this.

[@fidelsolis6070]

So true your dam Skippy they where better. The best legends and players of all the and anybody else from the 90s and early 2000s

[@retroguyretail1976]

bulls/pistons back then meant something. today they are both dreadful my how times have changed

[@jeffhall3044]

The four (4) biggest superstars all at one time. 1) Michael Jordan 2) Dennis Rodman 3) Shaq O' Neal 4) Magic Johnson

[@yeeluvspizza]

They seemed more important because... they were.

Cant believe I watched this live, I know because i still remember that intro, I had it recorded on a vhs tape with a bunch of other intros from the 1990s. Wow almost 30 yrs.

This intro was 🐐 the best ever I swear

[@AlexForzano]

What a great intro!!

[@PrincePrince-xd1nx]

when the east was strong

[@averageosrs4177]

There were 4 teams with 50 wins in the 1992 East. Last time that happened was in the 2011 East.

[@JustinW06]

1996-97 the east had 2 60+ win teams and 4 50+ win teams.

[@richiebee1984]

THE EAST IS STILL SOMEWHAT STRONG.SOME TEAMS JUST NEED A FEW PIECES TO COMPLETE THEIR TEAMS AND THE CONFERENCE.

[@alecsanderhamilton9224]

Well the East also had won the last three championships at this point. Would win the next two making it 5. Staring in 80 the East won 9 championships to the west 5 going into the first season post MJ in 1994

[@TheSnake1123]

The eastern conference MJ had to go through in the 90’s was much tougher than the one Lebron went through in the 2010’s. Lebron was able to go to 8 straight finals because the east was a cakewalk for him. There was little competition in the east. The Bulls before Derek Rose got hurt, the aging Celtics, and the Paul George led Pacers were the only teams in the east who gave Lebron any type of competition when he was with the heat and cavs. Basketball was more rugged and physical back then. Mj had to run through the gauntlet of talented teams in the east. It wasn’t easy and the fact that he conquered every challenge that came his way after he swept the pistons is the reason why he’s the GOAT

[@Accountyoutube788]

They got to bring this back, even if it's TNT.

[@dboygreat]

Damien Kirksey that's the best you got? Losing directly to the Bad Boys for 3 years in a row before that has no distinction huh.

[@damienkirksey7026]

Jim Kennedy that's what really happen

[@dunemetal67]

Right, the pistons faded into nothingness shortly thereafter, never again playing against MJ and the Bulls.

[@AntiMTVMovement]

I don't think any player will top Bill Laimbeer as the most hated opponent of the Bulls

[@ILoveOldTWC]

The most hated opponent of any NBA team when he was playing. Larry Bird and the Celtics hated him too, as did Barkley. I'm sure Magic Johnson did too.

[@ShariaLawAllDay]

When legendary players stuck with their teams through the good and bad, and eventually making the best rivalries in the history of sports. The NBA back then was about pride and killing yourself on the court to win a championship. Today's stars of the NBA just want the money and the owners see it as pure business, irrespective of winning or losing. This greedy selfish mindset disregarding what fans want is ruining the NBA. The flair and intensity is diminished and exists no more.

[@Unreal_Ra]

Wow hit the nail on the head. Couldn't have said it better myself.

The good old days

[@mobetta2092]

Basketball was more serious and intense back then because I was a teen with minimal responsibilities, who was able to put more effort into being entertained by it. As a middle aged married man with children and knowing that there is more to life than the a game being played by young men who are young enough to be my sons, the game isn't as significant. Perspective is everything.

The Bulls got rid of those basic looking banners that only say "CHICAGO BULLS NBA WORLD CHAMPIONS." Now they have that, plus a picture of the trophy, plus the name of each player on the roster.

[@robotunes]

My last in-person Bulls game! iirc, a few days earlier It was revealed that Isiah Thomas of the hated Pistons wouldn't be on the Dream Team for the upcoming '92 Olympics, so the crowd gave him hell all game. Bulls blew them tf out. Back then when a player fouled out, the P.A. system would always play "Hit the Road, Jack" kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5K4foKdn71gpNk. Well, when Isiah went to the bench in the 4th quarter for the last time, guess what the P.A. played. Crowd went crazy and sang along. Fun times. And TV does not do justice to MJ. Seeing him explode to the basket irl was jaw-dropping. After he unretired, he was a step slower, didn't jump quite as high and didn't explode of the floor the way he used to. I get it, we all get old. So lucky I got to see him and the Bulls at their athletic peak.

[@ILoveOldTWC]

The "Moment of glory", Jordan didn't allow that to be. He was too bitter about his hand not being shaken to allow himself to enjoy the "moment of glory." He should've thought "well if that's what he wants, that's how he'll have it, I don't care, because I've finally gotten past them and am going to the finals".

[@ILoveOldTWC]

94-83, 105-97, 113-107, 115-94, those scores are not ass-kickings, 4-game sweeps are misleading, but 2 of those 4 are by less than 10 points, and none of them are by 20 or more points.

Nemesis to the north? More like nemesis to the East.

Zigedi Zach well considering Detroit is in Michigan which is obviously North of Illinois. Also the Pistons play in the northern suburbs of Detroit which are considerably north of downtown Chicago on the map’s latitudes.
