Meh. :russell:So ESPN do their bi-annual thing of rolling out an ex-Bad Boy Piston to talk about how someone is better and he wasn't all that great.

Can't blame Laimbeer though. Of all the ex-Pistons, he's the one still most salty about Jordan. Let's remember Jordan called out the Pistons in 1991 on national media just before the sweep and exposed them for being an extremely dirty team. (which they were) and many of their players resented him for that.

C'mon now , even by the standards of that era you were. I've watched all those playoff games 88, 89, 90, 91 recently so my views are fresh. Targetting and smashing a guy every time he drove to the rim and making sure to lay him out flat on the ground is not basketball. If it was another player with a weaker body than Jordan, that guy would have gotten seriously hurt.

But I'm not even gonna critize. The Pistons just took advantage of the rules as they were in that time period.
