      Agreed. There's something about 90's ball that made it so good. I can't put it into words, maybe it's the transition game now? They're too fast? No time to set up plays.
      It seems less of a team game than in the 90s. Today it seems like dudes want to make highlight reels and trending social media plays? Like I said, I can't put it into words.

      None of these players (in this video) except MJ could make a tough shot under duress.. The great Micheal Jordan had spots on the floor he gotta get to. Everywhere on the court is Steph Currys spot.
      You see how packed they were in the paint, Steph would eat so much, it will be unfair. If they dared come that far out to guard him to feed the “get physical” trolls, all his team mates get to eat. And you’ll just sulk again because your 90s favs are truly not skilled,just willed.

      Isn't gettening kinda old for the fact officails Mr. Jordan pocket. I beg you the difference the most elite commentary comes when he drives commentator yells in excitement that saw the greatest move all basketball. Instead of calling carry he awarded 2 free throws. They have changed rules for Mr eliteness to take 3 steps instead of 2. As far as if play defence Mr Jordan the eliteness if the person gaurding him if much as sneeze on him the officials call a foul on them. When Dr J says Kareem Abdoul Jabar is great basketball player he knows what is going on. NBA is business is sport that everything is fare.

I really liked Grant Hill as a Piston for those six years, he proved he was an upper echelon talent in the NBA. At the same time it was frustrating to watch the Pistons play because they should of been a better team than what they were, which was a team that kept on getting bounced out in the first round of the playoffs every year.

      @@yunggpacino so I'm assuming you are too young to have ever actually watched Grant Hill play. And idk if you realize but you literally made no argument talking about TMac and Iverson. First off those two guys never had injuries so early in their career like Grant Hill. And the fact you used those 2 as examples to compare to someone like Grant Hill just proves you have no clue what you are talking about. So good try homie

    I miss this kind of basketball. Exciting, physical and complete, by complete I mean impeccable defense and unstoppable offense. How anyone can compare any modern day team to the 90s bulls is laughable. Compare apples to apples, not apples to cupcakes.

      I watched this with a renewed appreciation of MJs intensity & defense.
      But nobody in this video is stopping Kevin Durant..

      The 2016 Warriors are FAR better than any team the Bulls ever faced. Contrary to your opinion, it would be a great series.

      @@KR-ln5qw that’s absolutely ridiculous. Jordan will not spend the entire game chasing him all over the court. Currys 30 ft range and quickest release in nba history would be a major problem for that team. The Bulls would put Pippen on Curry most likely, and that would be a problem for Pippen. Remember when Dan Majerle hit a game winning 30 ft shot against Pippen in the finals? Pippen said you don’t extend 30 ft to guard a player, and that it was a bad shot that went in. He goes out 30 ft to meet Curry, which he’d have to unless he wants Curry to score 50, and Steph will dance right around him. I’ll also add this, Stephs loaded Warriors team would easily sweep the Utah Jazz .... a team the Bullls had to take to 6 games.

    When we were young my late big brother had a Grant Hill number 33 Detroit Pistons jersey. And back then ESPN was available on tv here in Fiji. But this was a great video. I enjoyed it.

    Watching MJ making Grant hill go right at the end of regulation is pure defense. Grant should have took him heads up to the left but couldn’t.

    This wasn’t a very efficient shooting game for Jordan, but he had a pretty decent all around game. The defense he played on a physically strong Grant Hill. The passing, and he hit a few tough midrange shots with the defender playing him very tightly.

    I have so much respect for the 98 bulls right here. Detroit played them really tough, full pressure. and they still won.
