The reason why they did this is because Jordan called the pistons “undeserving champions” and “bad for the league”. This led to the creation of the flagrant foul, and it’s obvious Stern created an environment that was Jordan friendly ensuring he would become the face of the NBA.

Keeping Isiah off the team was some real bum ass shyt. He was just as accomplished as his rivals and deserved to be recognized among them (the dream team was just a marketing deal and a coronation of the best players of that era).

Jordan sabotaging Zeke was a way to try to erase his legacy. Could only imagine what folks would say if Bron pulled some sucker ass shyt like that.

When the Pistons realized they would lose series, they stopped playing Jail basketball and started playing Penitentiary basketball. When they realized they couldn't intimidate the Bulls, they tried to INJURE them.

Those type of fouls have no place in basketball, and THAT's what raised the penalties for fouls.
(Flagrant foul was in rule books already)

Even after enduring the cheapshots, the Bulls won the series and at least expected the previous champs to conduct themselves like men, not bytch ass cowards.

That debatable. The point remains, publicly calling the reigning champions “undeserving” is just as petty as refusing a handshake. Jordan was obviously in his feelings over getting his ass kicked three years in a row by Zeke and couldn’t hide the bitterness.

What is debatable?
The Pelican Bay SHU Program fouls by Laimbeer and Rodman?

If he wanted to cry about fouls, why not name names instead of smearing a whole team and it’s championship? I’ll tell you why: because doing so would have required Jordan to call out Bill Laimbeer and Jordan would have rather died than publicly criticize a white guy, so he just threw the whole team under the bus because deep down he was really just jealous of Isiah and his success.

You appear to be deflecting here. I gave my opinion about what Jordan was criticizing. I showed game footage of the playoff series showing the type of play. Commentator calling the game said it was indicative of how the Pistons played and possible referee actions.

Cosigns what I wrote.

Deflecting? I’m setting the record straight. Did you even watch the bad boy pistons play? Would you say players like Dumars and Thomas were the same kind of cheap shot artists as Laimbeer was? So why would Jordan essentially say a player like Dumars was an undeserving champion?

Doesn’t change that Michael Jordan and them was saying that the Pistons were undeserving champions while in the middle of the series.

Who gives dap to that? Even Kevin McHale said the bulls cried too much.

Half of these dudes talking weren’t old enough to watch the NBA back then. It’s all about YouTube and reputation.

Magic didn’t want him on team, so it wasn’t happening anyway. Add in Jordan and pippen, no chance. His own coach supposedly didn’t want him on team either.

We know Malone didn’t give a shyt about him.
