Terrible slow pace iso ball not a team oriented era if u was an iso guy u would thrive in this era.beat the ball up for 20 seconds jus to throw it in the post. no actual defense just hard fouls
The 97-98 season was watered down there were only 4 real superstars in the entire NBA. Jordan, Malone, O'neal and Duncan. The entire East outside the Bulls that year was trash. Look how bad it was in the NBA. 5 teams couldnt even win 20 games. A record.

The secret of Bulls in my opinion is that they had very different playstyles in their team. Apart from MJ and SP, who was very strong and very versatile, they had Dennis, all-out fighter, Kerr with his dead aim, Tony with crazy amount of flair, and so and so on. Each of these individuals complemented each other, when put together forming the best NBA team of all time.
They don’t have time to become special because players are bouncing from one team to another. It takes time and years of playing with the same guys to develop good chemistry.
@@josemanuelcaballero1162 Did you even watch NBA back then? or did you just watch highlights on UA-cam? NBA games that were 85-77 was not the best years of the NBA.
This is real basketball. These are real men. Contact was allowed. Two great teams. This version of the Bulls may be the GOAT. This is far better than the current 3 point shootout, travel fest we see today.
I like watching the shooting ability in todays league and I like seeing offense for sure, the focus on efficiency is an interesting evolution and you can clearly see which teams have the efficiency and which teams don’t. But yea I for sure miss the era of the big man and battles in the paint. Angry David Robinson would be absolutely unstoppable in todays league. Unless defenders flopped on him I guess, lol.
How sad is it that I play old 1980 all-star games to get my BB jollies vs. the 3 point shoot out of today ! There's no defense anymore just shooting and that's it. Kevin Durants one of the few who shoots the 2 pointer. The NBA has become a yawn fest.
No defense no heart and soul, dumb shots, I don’t like my team anymore and all I have to do is not show up to practice and games and sit out half the season until I get traded to the best team with all the best players and if I win this championship I’m the greatest
Not this version of the Bulls. They were physically banged up and was spent by the end of the playoffs vs Utah. Battle worn. I don't think they woulda won the following year if they had kept it together.
This is a great video to educate young fans. 1. I don't see any plumbers. These dudes all look athletic. 2. This is what the game looked like when it was more balanced and not a 3pt contest. 3. Look at the intense effort on both sides. Playing hard on defense, diving for loose balls, etc. 4. Nobody is flopping. 5. Nobody is doing 5 step euro steps, double step backs, shuffling the feet, etc. David Robinson at 10:37 getting called for a ticky tack travel. That would NEVER be called today. Kids think their players are more athletic. It's easy to look athletic when you can just fly around without dribbling. 🤷♂️ 6. David Robinson was a problem, and this was when he was declining. 7. This is 1 year before the Spurs won their 1st championship. This team went on to beat LeBron in the Finals, twice.
I like that kind of playing style instead of the current style. Look at their skills, defense, confrontation. Nowadays, even the game highlights are so boring. Players only shoots but not defense, they are just running in the court, pick and rolls, but rarely seen 1 on 1.
I was at this game in the Alamo Dome, I was 14 years old and this was Jordan's last year with the bulls. I am from Corpus and this was the year I became a life long SPURS fan!!! I remember when Jordan blocked Timmy and Timmy gave right back, I'll never forget that. I wish the NBA would be more defensive as it use to be. Anyone can score 30 a game with ease. Great video from back in the day where things were more meaningful and less stressful.
It seats 68,000 people but the arena was split in half for basketball dropping capacity to 39,000. Now the basketball configuration is in the middle so the entire arena can be used.
Wow! This game was unbelievable! These two teams were really going at each other! People really forget how great David Robinson was. If Chicago had to play them in the finals, it would have probably gone 7. Duncan and Robinson together was no joke. Chicago really had no answer for both of them. And im a Bulls fan.

duncan wasnt duncan yet till the end of that season, and he showed it when he took over in the playoffs.problem was the didnt have the outside shooters to help duncan inside, so utah double teamed every time the ball was sent in the paint.
What a great watch… back then - it was still rather difficult for me to watch NBA games in Germany. Seeing this, make me want to watch more. My love for Basketball started in the early to mid 80‘s. And the only way to get a „live“ feeling of the game, was via AM radio, AFN Frankfurt, in the middle of the night. Super sweet memories staying up all night or setting the alarm for 4:30 in the morning… sorry about this bit rambling. Awesome game! So much talent on the floor. Incredible plays. Good intense defense. Great hustle by Rodman. Now off to find more content like this

Duncan will never be great dude never led NBA once in any stat, he is not great scorer and as i said many times, if popovich didnt load managed and sit Admiral to tank, Vancouver would have 1st pick and Timmy will be solid 15 ppg 10 rpg Pau Gasol type. Still allstar tho. But not 1st ballot hof.
What an entertaining game! So cool to see Denis vs David and Tim, Kukoc from downtown, Pip showing up and MJ delivering another clinic on how to kill the opponent little by little.
I believe it would have went 7 games because by 1999 Duncan was unstoppable and Robinson was the Defensive stopper. All the Bulls would have needed to be healthy and at there best like they were in this game. Every played well in this game.

@@ast.george3565 The league pass should be free considering how dogshit the league is currently. I mean last year i got to watch Nikola Jokic dribble the ball off his own legs and throw it away 2 or three dozen times in the finals and get told how he's the best player going right now. Yeah, real skillful.
@@blurplebear8573 I don't think the league has ever had as many 20-point comebacks as they have this season you know why because guys can shoot really well and the zone defense stops almost every offenses momentum when implemented correctly. Your boy Jordan made the playoffs with 30 wins and 52 losses .. the Warriors have 32 victories right now and are in 10th place! Do you think the league was more competitive when you could make the playoffs with 30 wins?
@@ast.george3565They have those comebacks because no one plays any defense at all. The Warriors are still in the playoffs too by the way since 2/3s of the league make the playoffs. Comebacks do not mean a skillful display was seen it has to do with a lack of effort on the winning team. The Boston Celtics tonight, the best team in the league, was outscored by fucking DEAN WADE 20-17 in the fourth quarter to lose to the Cavs minus Donovan Mitchell. Is that skill? A backup power forward averaging 8.4 PPG outscores the best team in the league by himself for a quarter. This league is the definition of the crustiest, homeless guy butt cheeks you can find.
@blurplebear8573 that simply is not true and that is why I have been documenting and timestamping not only the games but also what the commentators say while the games are going on usually when you hear there was a comeback and you watched the broadcast you will hear about how well the zone has been working for the team that is coming back it was illegal to play zone defense in the 90s and zone defense is an integral part of basketball that is when basketball becomes chess and not checkers
This game has more soul than many of today's playoffs games. Now you have the so called best player cares only about filling up his stat line and prolonging his career so that he has more records to show for. Having talent and basketball intelligence is one thing but asserting yourself in the 82 game grind is the respect you should have. Jordan used to lamented about the long regular season but he fought hard against every team.
i'm pretty sure spurs woulda beat them. bulls were aging and the spurs height would have dominated teh bulls big time. rodman was also mentally fried. would have been the true passing of the torch eheheh
Krause was great at roster building. They would’ve had to get younger. But Jordan was stubborn and had no sense of roster building, then and now. He would’ve been a detriment to the team remaining a contender.
Jordan was the leader and best player… Scotty Pippen was the glue that held everything together and Phil Jackson was the mastermind and implemented the triangle offense
you're so wrong. duncan wasnt duncan yet till the end of that season, and he showed it come playoff time.if they had met in the nba finals that year, it would have been a problem for jordan and the bulls.
Another point is that Chicago played the game with simplicity… nothing fancy and just simple fundamental basketball Jordan and Pippen gets all the attention and when they post up defenders the the defense has to send another defender and that leaves the 3 point assassins wide open, Kerr, Kukoc, John Paxton , BJ Armstrong The defense has to adjust and can’t leave those 3 point assassins wide open, so that means Jordan and Pippen can go one on one and defenses have no chance… It’s beautiful great full artistry
- Robinson was HEATED - Robinson/Duncan front court was madness - Rodman was one of the toughest dudes to score against - Rookie Duncan could score on prime Rodman (end of his prime but still mad Rodman) - Kukoc is still underrated - Pippen 1st half/Kukoc 2nd half - 4 quarters of Jordan being the Goat
One Dynasty(The Bulls)on its way out in their last Dance, while another(Spurs)are just scratching the surface of their Dynasty of the next 15 yrs('99-'14)!!!
Outside the incredible basketball, how many HOFers on the floor in this game and really great second tier players with Harper, Kukoc, Person? Also two hall of fame coaches.
Dominique 1 on 1 in front of you would be a scary situation. This video is great but seeing him in person was ridiculous. Rodman knew the in and out dribble double fake was coming but not much he could do to stop Wilkins. Amazing
This is the quality of NBA I really miss...!
I hear ya. Now it's just a 3 point contest. And the refs have taken the passion out the game.

The Boston Celtics tonight, the best team in the league, was outscored by fucking DEAN WADE 20-17 in the fourth quarter to lose to the Cavs minus Donovan Mitchell. Is that skill? A backup power forward averaging 8.4 PPG outscores the best team in the league by himself for a quarter. This league is the definition of the crustiest, homeless guy butt cheeks you can find.
@blurplebear8573 that simply is not true and that is why I have been documenting and timestamping not only the games but also what the commentators say while the games are going on usually when you hear there was a comeback and you watched the broadcast you will hear about how well the zone has been working for the team that is coming back it was illegal to play zone defense in the 90s and zone defense is an integral part of basketball that is when basketball becomes chess and not checkers
This game has more soul than many of today's playoffs games. Now you have the so called best player cares only about filling up his stat line and prolonging his career so that he has more records to show for. Having talent and basketball intelligence is one thing but asserting yourself in the 82 game grind is the respect you should have. Jordan used to lamented about the long regular season but he fought hard against every team.
This should have been the 1999 NBA Finals. Bulls get a 4-peat before the end of the millennium.
Yes
i'm pretty sure spurs woulda beat them. bulls were aging and the spurs height would have dominated teh bulls big time. rodman was also mentally fried. would have been the true passing of the torch eheheh
Krause was great at roster building. They would’ve had to get younger. But Jordan was stubborn and had no sense of roster building, then and now. He would’ve been a detriment to the team remaining a contender.

Rod was ALWAYS....fried!😅
I miss the 90s basketball so much. The best era ever
Jordan was the leader and best player… Scotty Pippen was the glue that held everything together and Phil Jackson was the mastermind and implemented the triangle offense
Great times for NBA, imagine going inside the paint and seeing Admiral and Duncan waiting.
whhat a battle. this game shows how strong bulls were. twin tower was never problem for jordam
you're so wrong. duncan wasnt duncan yet till the end of that season, and he showed it come playoff time.if they had met in the nba finals that year, it would have been a problem for jordan and the bulls.
@@archangelmusic1398 also not the prime bulls...old version bulls.
@@ngsiam3213 not the prime spurs, not even all the spurs since elliot wasnt playing.
@@archangelmusic13 Ok. Spurs 14 vs bulls 95.....50%
@@ngsiam3213 spurs didnt win inj 2014, they were at their best in 2003 i think.and destroyed shaq and kobe in la
Basketball before is really different..its amazing ..i really miss it tehe real brawl
What a game. And this was regular season too. Both teams were really going at it. They don't play like this anymore.
Robinson my dawg just trucking everyone
not having Sean Elliot was a big difference for the spurs.
The two headed monster with Robinson and Duncan was post up 1-2 punch. Robinson was SO intense in this matchup.
That’s a great Spurs team and the Bulls just breeze past them. Never get rattled, just win
Real NBA. Miss this game, these centers, wow. its other sport bro.
when NBA was a game of men
Another point is that Chicago played the game with simplicity… nothing fancy and just simple fundamental basketball
Jordan and Pippen gets all the attention and when they post up defenders the the defense has to send another defender and that leaves the 3 point assassins wide open, Kerr, Kukoc, John Paxton , BJ Armstrong
The defense has to adjust and can’t leave those 3 point assassins wide open, so that means Jordan and Pippen can go one on one and defenses have no chance… It’s beautiful great full artistry
6 HOF'ers on 1 court!
YEAH JORDAN WAS WAGON IN SUPERTEAM.
@@PIP...33😂🛑
This regular season game is better than today's NBA finals. I'm done watching today's NBA.
real superstars of NBA
Kevin Garnett would have been a Bull in 99 if it was safe to come to Chicago and I believe that the Bulls would have won in 99!
Crowded court of legends
That pass by Pippen at 16:55 was unreal
- Robinson was HEATED
- Robinson/Duncan front court was madness
- Rodman was one of the toughest dudes to score against
- Rookie Duncan could score on prime Rodman (end of his prime but still mad Rodman)
- Kukoc is still underrated
- Pippen 1st half/Kukoc 2nd half
- 4 quarters of Jordan being the Goat
This season game is so much better than today's Final even game 7!
This would have been a great NBA finals matchup in 99 had the bulls not broken up
Brutal, physical game
They had to fight for every point.
This would have been an interesting finals match up
Today's NBA is nothing compared to this classic, hard fought, placing a ptemium on each possession wow!! It was gripping
It’s a shame what the game has turned into today. I can sit here all day and watch the old Sokol stuff
One Dynasty(The Bulls)on its way out in their last Dance, while another(Spurs)are just scratching the surface of their Dynasty of the next 15 yrs('99-'14)!!!
Pure art.
This is real NBA BASKETBALL FOLKS! Today’s NBA with no defense, no diving for balls like this it’s ah bland game nowadays no fun to watch!
Robinson had a unique physical condition.
I love that we actually get to see Duncan versus Bulls Jordan. This season was the end of the bulls and the beginning of the Spurs
MJ is the GOAT period
Was there any doubt?
I was at this game. I remember going down and sitting behind the Bulls bench in row 6 during the 2nd half. Couldn’t believe there was an empty seat.
The court is so much more spread out now, everything used to be a battle for the post.
I really miss this style of basketball.
Robinson was a beast.
Nice to see players with the effort to score, not the effort to flop
Outside the incredible basketball, how many HOFers on the floor in this game and really great second tier players with Harper, Kukoc, Person? Also two hall of fame coaches.
I miss this kind of basketball
The Admiral, Duncan, Avery Johnson, Del Negro, Gregg Popovich, Pippen, Toni, Rodman, The Goat. Phil Jackson. This is the game
Dominique 1 on 1 in front of you would be a scary situation. This video is great but seeing him in person was ridiculous. Rodman knew the in and out dribble double fake was coming but not much he could do to stop Wilkins. Amazing
