      Oh definitely Bird was tough as an old nail + had issues with Bad Boys. Also, unlike Jordan, he would go without ball in the paint, and tried to score from the side line. There were “Bird rules” as well, but Larry was so foxy. Anyway, sent them home once in their prime, 1987, with a steal (?!).

      Yup today there would be a 15 minute delay looking at the replay seven times. Then kicking out Laimbeer which ruins the intensity of the game and then suspension. Versus what happened Laimbeer stayed in the game and Larry Bird got his revenge by out playing him the rest of the game.

      Hey remember when Magic said the piston champ was weak because they didn't beat a healthy celtics team. Hahaha keep in mind rockets didn't have their entire starting line for the entire 1986 playoff run. Hakeem beat the 86 Lakers in a gentleman sweep without their starting PG. While the Lakers had Magic Johnson at pg. Funny Magic couldn't take advantage of this.
      The 1986 Celtics had to resort to dirty play to get past Hakeem. Let that sink in for a second. Bird had the ref (yes the refs were clearing helping the celtics), home court advantage, and the superteam. Yet celtics still had to resort to dirty plays against Ralph to take him out of the game in order to "beat Hakeem". Funny people give LeBron a hard time for a 8 pt finals game. When Bird has two 8 pt finals game. There's a reason bird didn't win every FMVP. Most people don't realize the celtics (during Bird era) don't have a winning record against Lakers, 76ers, and Pistons in the playoffs.

      Celtics tend to send their bench more often to do the dirty work. While the starters would let it happen and act innocent. Piston wasn't fake like that. The Pistons starters did their own dirty work. Showing the clear double standard the NBA was giving to Boston.

      Mathew Phillip Prater: I agree. Lambeer wasn't a bully just for the joy of it. He had a plan, the whole team had a plan. The Piston's had one super star in Isiah Thomas, The rest of the guys at best were a sixth man on any other team. But Daily got them to play within the 80's rules in a way that other teams couldn't adjust to. Watch these videos about Lambeer, but change the focus to McHale or Oakley as the bad guy then check out what you see. Those trips, the elbows, the cheap shots, other teams and players are doing them too. Lambeer wasn't a unicorn in that regard. What was different about Lambeer is he didn't deny what he was doing.
      Also remember that this was a time of heavy branding in the NBA to gain audience: LA had "Show Time" (like no one else had ever run a fast break or a behind the back pass); Boston had "Legacy": Chicago had Air Jordan and Detroit got the "Bad Boyz". Detroit played to what the marketing said they were. I saw a bunch of none Piston players on the floor whining about the foul they just received. I didn't see anyone carried off the floor or a busted arm or leg limping away.
      Jordan complaining is just that: Jordan complaining. In era, remember that Jordan complained about his own team mates, so why is him complaining about his opponents so significant.
      By the way, Jordan is not the GOAT, Wilt is.
      The Pistons in era played to take you out of your game better than what the other teams could conceive of doing. And it worked for them.

    Mostly Laimbeer played clever position defense in the paint. That alone upset a lot of the opposition. He was ALWAYS in the way down low. He led the league in rebounds a couple of years and did a lot of physical work around the rim. He was more physical than dirty. He had fast hands and was a great outside shot. Yeah, he would dish out some hard fouls but so did everybody else in that era.
