Jordan Bulls vs Curry Warriors

[Manwiththeplan]

To be honest, I'm not sure if it's *just* the Curry injury or maybe the chase to 73 just wore them down too much, but I just don't think Golden State has played their A game all post season. Shame.

C'mon man...Cowboys, Lakers, Tar heels!?

I like the Lakers too. What of it?

 

[LocimusPrime]

Well... The "tone" was set in the first round. Pretty boy shooter gets roughed up hood-style. THAT really did them in.

With that said...OKC was gonna get trophy... At some point. You could see it. I think they hand lebron yet another finals loss.





Winning is winning. You still have to win the game. 73-9 is amazing. Probably should have been 75-7... Anyways...

Those Bulls teams were a machine.

Then Jordan came back and got Rodman and it was machine 2.0





Pippin was really good. But... Of those 8 years 3 - 2 - 3 ... I see him never taking team to and winning finals without Jordan. Mayyyyyybe he gets to one or two finals but no trophy.

Right on i loved those bulls: ron harper, steve kerr, michael jordon, scottie pippen, dennis rodman, luc longley, toni kucoc, john salley, randy brown, jud buechler. Thats a deep team w alot of o and alot of D

But that's the problem then. If he is a great player, he should understand that he is being horribly inefficient by taking shots that he isn't good at. Look at how efficient Dwayne Wade is most of the time. He rarely takes three point shots, because he isn't good at them. But one foot inside the line he is elite.

I'll take the opinion of NBA players who played against Kobe, coaches, etc. Over your analysis of why Kobe is elite or not.

Lol, you can take their opinion all you want. I didn't say Kobe wasn't a great player, I said he was overrated based on player efficiency.

I never understand why if you don't just overly praise someone it is viewed as a slight.

Again you say he is overrated, and the opinion of players and coaches who played against him say he is not. Your opinion holds no weight. Theirs do.

Because you clearly can't think for yourself or look at data. I showed you information, your argument is "because someone else said so". Brilliant.

lol. Amazing how you know 100% Kobe isn't elite, but NBA players/coaches,etc. are clueless because they say otherwise. I'll take THEIR data over your's.

I CLEARLY CAN THINK on that.

And what data is that? And where did I say Kobe wasn't an elite player?

"Kobe Bryant was overrated as he was very inefficient."

Hmmm....Kobe being overrated usually means he isn't elite. Whatever. This is your trip. Later...

Kobe Bryant is elite, and Kobe Bryant is overrated can both be true. Those words are not opposite words.

For sure!

The second threepeat team... When they added Rodman... He would scratch and scramble and fight for the ball and then go, "here MJ, here's the ball"

That wacky painted hair freak...
Lol

Those Bulls teams were insane defensively. Jordan would take off offensive possessions but would suffocate the opponent on defense.

Us Bulls fans are paying for it now, unfortunately.

Curry is not injured ....... he is just being covered and the refs are not bailing him out everytime.

They only won last year because every other team got hurt in the playoffs.

 

[Fletch]

This is the guy who says "I think these old players showing their jealousy." So Pippen with his 6 rings, is jealous of the Warriors team and their 1 title. lol.

Yep. I admittedly belly laughed after reading this.

Like us Cowboys Fans unfortunately too!

The 90s were the greatest decade for me.

Bulls 2 threepeats
Yankees 4 WS in 5 years
Cowboys 3 SB IN 4 years

13 sports titles for my teams from 1992-2000... Craziness! Lol

Playing by todays rules Bulls might beat GS, if they were playing by the 90's rules GS gets run out of the building. No way GS could hold up to the physicality that was allowed during the time the Bulls owned the league.

You said it right here in this very quote.

 

[ghst187]

I did not call you anything ....... you thinking the Bulls got babied by the league more that Golden State speaks for itself.

I have never seen a team as coddled as the GSW and esp Curry and Donkey

Most free throw attempts in playoff history, Jordan has 1766, second only to Shaquille who dealt with the hack a shaq strategy. Jordan took the league's popularity to new heights and the league realized he was their golden goose thus he got away with everything, he invented the permissibility of taking three steps on a fast break, and no one could breath on him. All time great, sure, but cmon.

OKC has been bullying them the way Detroit used to bully people.
