In the 98 Finals, Greg Ostertag was so bad offensively the Bulls didn’t bother to guard him. Could this happen today?

Guarantee you that nobody is gonna watch that breakdown video.

These so-called basketball fans won’t even watch Ben Taylor’s breakdowns which have much better production value.

They’re not gonna watch this guy explain how the Bulls left Ostertag open because it let Scottie put pressure on Stockton and run back to be a help defender on Ostertag.

Could this happen today? I doubt it.
I don’t think any defender today, even Pippen, could stand at midcourt to double a PG and still be able to run back to contest a Big at the rim.

Guards and Centers are way too skilled and athletic now.

These frauds love these dumbass agenda threads if it’s anti MJ or Kobe, and pretend to be objective observers.

Better passers too. Even if Pippen got back the ball Ball would ping around the court and you’d get buried by open 3’s.


The Jazz were 13-60 from 3 in the series.

We are in a league now where even Myles Turner can hit 3s.

And people hate on him but he’s light years better and more skilled than Ostertag was.
