and in 94 they needed refs help to eliminate mj-less bulls, though it's a karma for bulls as the bulls were constantly getting help from refs in the 90s with MJ on the team :mjlol:

Derek Harper was suspended for 1 or 2 games vs Bulls. His backup was Greg Anthony. That series should've been over in 4. And Pippen was shooting like sh!t that entire series. He was clamped up.

Y'all not gonna use this to sh!t on the Knicks. The Sonics had Dream's number, but y'all ain't saying ish about that. some teams you matchup better against, but I'm not sure we ever saw a Top Contending team this pu$$ified...in the playoffs. He's toying with them like it's And 1

That did help change the series, There were rumors that Phil sent JoJo English in there to start a fight intentionally If I remember right. That was also the game where Scottie sat out and Kukoc hit the game winner, Knicks had a chance to go up 3-0 in that series and you're right it might've been a sweep if they won that game.

And the most important part of the Bulls-Knicks series is that we were never deflated. Not the fans, not the team. We always thought we were getting the next game and MJ brought his A game, not his And1 game.

This is where we have to give credit to LeBron. :manny:

What can the Raptors possibly do about last night? He hit 8 ridiculous fadeaways and picked them apart in every way. They just don't have an answer for him. In game one they defended him well and limited him to 12 of 30, he still went out and hit a clutch fadeaway over O.G., who is a pretty good defender to tie the game and they took it in OT. Y'all can call the Raptors soft or whatever but they just can't solve the LeBron problem.

We also learned last night that LeBron takes pride in shytting on the Raptors because Dwane Casey was the defensive coach of the '11 Mavericks that gameplanned to beat him in the Finals. :wow:

The raptors are not contenders :stopitslime:.

Y’all need to make up y’all mind. Calling the Raps contenders and then calling The East is weak when Lebron gets passed everyone smh!
The Raptors are contenders though, they were one of the best teams in the NBA. It can't be taken away from them just because LeBron dominates them.

THESE RAPS JUST STRUGGLED WITH THE WIZ
BUT THEY SUPPOSED TO BEAT BRON?


:evil:

The Wizards aren't wack. They were a disappointing team and they have chemistry issues but they're a talented team. Only reason they won 43 games is because Wall missed over 40 games during the regular season. Also, all season they played to the level of their competition they would beat good teams and lose to bad ones.

The series went 6 but it wasn't all that close. Wizards lost the first two gave up 130 and lost by double digits in one of them games, they took advantage of their homecourt winning the next two, and then they lost the next two games by double digits.

You say it should have been a sweep but the series still went 7. :francis:

And it took those Knicks 7 games to get through Indiana who won 47 games to the Knicks 57 games.

The Knicks were the better team, but Indy was built as a mirror image. Jumpshooting C, rugged bigs, shooting SG and savvy PG.

Being in the media capital of the world and “playing MJ hard” overrated the fukk out of the Knicks.

I was the NY born and bred niqqa who was calling the Knicks the overrated offensively challenged plodders that they were in REAL TIME. Beyond MJ, those Pacers series were also tough to watch as two offensively challenged teams with 5 minute scoring droughts between them and struggle post moves of the Davis boys went at game after game. But they were excellent accessories to the MJ story, so that made folks excited.

Not really because when MJ retired nobody in the east ever won a ring.

MJ wasn't blocking nobody's chip out east


THIS!


Also keywords said were “A HOF big”

And respect to Ewing being an HOF..... at the end of the day he was only one man.

While MJ had help with another HOF on his own team
