That Pistons team was stacked.They're obviously not prime 80's Bad Boy Pistons, but look at the talent.Isaiah, Dumars, Laimbeer, Rodman.Vinnie Johnson is in the argument for greatest 6th Man of all time.In the 80's, they were even more stacked.When they added guys like Adrian Dantley & Mark Aguirre.Personally, I'd put the '89 Pistons up against any team in history.They basically had an All Star team.Not only that, they played a very physically opposing, brutal style of basketball.That backcourt trio of Isaiah, Dumars, and Vinnie Johnson was vicious.Each one of those guys were capable of getting hot & dropping 20 points in a qtr.

[@festusaniemeka3350]

[@dirtyface-capone7622]

@festusaniemeka3350 Rodman was already a beast by 1988.H just didnt get a lot of minutes early on because, as I said, the team was stacked during those years.They also had Rick Mahorn & John Salley to throw at people.Rodman won Defensive Player Of The Year back to back in '90 & '91.That was nearing the end of the Bad Boy dynasty.They weren't the same anymore, but still a formidable bunch.I disagree about it being a weak era.You still had dynastic teams like the Celtics & Lakers.Not to mention the Bulls finally started to mature into a dynasty in their own right.I'll put the '85-'90 Pistons, Lakers, and Celtics up against any team in history.I think they'd beat anybody Especially the '86 Celtics, '89 Pistons, and '87 Lakers.Personally, I think the '87 Lakers are the best NBA team of all time.

[@placebojesus5652]

That ridiculously bad goaltending call by the refs on the McHale put-back and then the Reggie Lewis foul before that where they didn’t count the shot make was ridiculous. This game would’ve and should’ve been won by the Celtics in regulation with no OT if not for the bad call by the refs who I can only suspect had money on the game or something lol in the wake of the Donaghey revelations god only knows what we didn’t know, especially back then around this time lol. Sure the Pistons executed in OT but it shouldn’t have gone to OT, and the Celtics were tired and beaten down physically from the bullshit from the refs either crooked or stupid asses and the Pistons ridiculous style of play that the refs should’ve never allowed. So many calls here that were fouls that the Celtics didn’t get and then so many times the Pistons had the gall to complain about obvious foul calls that it gave the refs some hesitancy, like calling traveling when there was clearly pushing going on. This shit is annoying, it shoulda been back to Boston where Boston would’ve won, then it should’ve been MJ v. Bird in the conference finals, where MJ probably would’ve won (if not we would’ve had the final Magic Bird showdown, but then we’d have to deal with more nonsense from the LeBron Stans than we already do in the GOAT debate re: MJ lol) but it would’ve been conducted with far more class than Pistons showed in that series of course. I get why Chuck Daly had to do what he had to do with this trash squad so I don’t blame him too much, really he’s just got too much of that Irish charm and charisma and wit/IQ and realness (hence why he was the boss of the Dream Team over the then new kid on the coaching block but back to back champion coach Phil Jackson, but also over all the other more established coaches at the time like Pat Riley, Coach K, Lenny Wilkins, Don Nelson, etc., so I can’t hate on him as much as I possibly should lol, but that said, fuck every one of those players from those Pistons teams except maybe Joe Dumars (and yes I’m including John Salley, he’s not the chill peace loving hippie dude he fronts as if you watch those games, including this one with his McHale fight, and as for Dumars, well he was kinda the one good cop role player so maybe he doesn’t even deserve the credit I’m giving him but I just always liked him and his game so I’ll possibly/probably unfairly give him a pass like I did with Chuck Daly lol).

Larry Bird again loses to the Detroit Piston Bad Boys. Same ball club who snatched the torch from them in 1988, who themselves would have the torch taken in the next round by the team they had beaten three previous years - in a sweep - MJ and the Chicago Bulls.

[@plainsimple244]

Pay Attention: Look at how hard the Pistons were playing in this game, okay? Look at the minutes Daly gave to his front court of Salley and Edwards; look at how aggressive Isiah Thomas was and especially how aggressive defensively the Pistons were as a unit. .... Why is this important? JUST 2 DAYS LATER IN THE EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS LOOK AT WHAT TOOK PLACE: Isiah Thomas takes 9 shots in game 1 and only 9 shots in game 2; Bill Laimbeer takes just 7 shots in game 1 and only 2 shots in game 2; Joe Dumars took just 10 shots in game 1 and only 10 shots in game 3 while Chuck Daly played John Salley only 9 minutes in game 2 and played Edwards just 11 minutes in game 2 and only 9 minutes in game 3. Now a rotation and minutes along with shot attempts -- that's done ON PURPOSE and it has nothing to do with an opponent.... So look at the Pistons from game 6 here which was on a Friday and then on Sunday and Tuesday in the Eastern Conference Finals and then that following Saturday in game 3. THE PISTONS PURPOSELY LOST THE EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS IN 1991. Another thing to note, why didn't Thomas just keep coming off the bench in the Eastern Conference Finals?... Detroit had a good rotation going but Thomas inserted himself into the starting lineup in the ECF taking only 9 shots in game 1 and 9 shots in game 2 -- CONTROLLING THE GAME so that the Pistons COULD NOT win and Daly doing his part with the rotation and Laimbeer and Dumars plugging in their roles....So the leadership of the Pistons did the following: The scorers didn't shoot and the coach didn't play his front line guys minutes to succeed and what happened? The Pistons lost to a team they were 26-9 against from 1988-1990 eliminating them 3 straight seasons in the playoffs...but some how they do not know how to get one game? Funny as hell. See, the Pistons made it obvious, had the 1991 ECF been a 6 or 7 game series, nobody could see it, but Thomas and the Pistons leadership would not play ball, they made it obvious and then walked-off showing you it was a peaceful protest more than anything and they were made to do this and had to step aside so Jordan could win...why? THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY IS!!!!... Especially opening up those global markets and furthering revenues for the players as Isiah Thomas was the President of the Player's Association doing those negotiations on behalf of the players with a 53% revenue share in favor of the players.... So that's what we were seeing and that's how NBA history was forever changed and NBA basketball was destroyed for, 'The Michael Jordan Show' and guess what? The Pistons broke up their championship-contending team by waiving Vinnie Johnson and trading James Edwards to the Clippers -- this way the Pistons could NEVER compete for titles again and be a threat to Jordan. HAHAHA!...Everyone moved aside to make sure Jordan won - Isiah, Magic, and then Jordan competed against his friends: Ewing/Oakley, Barkley, and non-competitors at the Conference Finals/Finals level like Kemp/Payton and Malone/Stockton, who it took them to 1997 to even get to the Finals with all that experience and then they couldn't perform in the Finals because they weren't intelligent, same with Seattle.

Hey, wouldn't surprise me. You see this type of thing all the time in the NFL. People were perplexed with the Ravens and how they played in the AFC Championship. Teams suddenly coming out and looking like a completely different team should send alarms to people that what they're seeing is the fix. This doesn't take anything away from Jordan and the Bulls. They were great but were they as great as the NBA wants you to believe? Maybe not. One thing is certain though. MJ is the GOAT and it's not he rings that make him the GOAT. He was the GOAT long before he won his first ring. As an individual player, nobody could do what he did.

The main reason of both defeats: Injuries. Excuses? Nope. Detroit deserved to win rings, of course. They were a hard working team that defended so close to legal limits but Boston was more talented and without injuries they'd have won always. Anyway, it was in 6 games in spite of the injuries. Imagine with all the guys playing.

Isiah must’ve been injured

[@eyram1]

The Celtics should've won this game

[@Mrd9960]

They always had trouble winning at Detroit, if they won this game, no way they're losing game 7 at home.

[@albertodominguez65]

​@@Mrd9960 As minimum the same trouble Detroit had to win them. Boston lost in 6 games in 1988 and 1991 in spite of the injuries and it was by little margin. I don't think Detroit was better.

@@albertodominguez65 And also that BS call against McHale for goal tending didn't help, that was one of the worst calls ever, horrible!

Bird looks so brittle

[@your_royal_highness]

No three-peat for those sob’s

[@kostasagelidis5326]

lary why so bad??

[@jamesbowman8138]

Back and heel injuries he should not have been playing

[@jamesguest4741]

Worse I never saw Bird play! Mchale was better then Bird @ this point?

[@albertodominguez65]

Bird was seriously injured. Imagine to play with backpain and limitations to move. He won Indiana the previous series and simply he couldn't give more that year.

[@kingsports1113]

This why the bulls sweept the pistons the pistons went to war against Boston

[@jamesguest4741]

Detroit was better here; Period. Bird must been done here?

[@albertodominguez65]

Nope. Boston would have been the real best Regular Season team if Larry had played most of the games. With Bird, Boston won about 76% of the games he played in. Detroit was under Boston all of the season. It was a classic problem what happened in playoffs: Injuries.

[@jamesguest4741]

Detroit giving it too Isah last play? Wrong!

[@rubberman2006]

Terrible Celtics team

[@TruthHurts58]

Pistons suck. If Boston has Bias they don’t win JACK!

But they didn't stop wishing😅
