yep.....thats why when people talk about Lebron over Jordan I laugh.....go watch the 1989 conference finals and watch Jordan eat easily a dozen fouls in that series that if someone did that to Lebron in todays league theyd be suspended for a week
@@stavros950 , and if Lebron had been around in that era then he'd have dealt with it, just as players did back then. You know that NBA players today aren't a different species, right? The idea that Lebron James would curl up in the foetal position if he had to take a bit of contact is just stupid. He's a great player and would be great in any era. I'm not a Lebron fan especially but the inability that some people have to admit how good he is just because his fans hurt their feelings is pathetic.
@@whosyodaddy763, it's almost like times change and people change with them. I can't recall what those fans did but I remember thinking that they deserved to be thrown out and that would apply to any era. Maybe players in the Jordan era were too busy slapping each other to consider that fans shouldn't be allowed get away with any abuse they want.
This was the golden era of the NBA. I’m a die hard Hawks fan. I cut my teeth with this team. I remember making a hoop from a hanger and bald up newspaper as a ball😂
@@fidanasimpson5465 I bet the Pistons win 1 before the hawks do😂 Trey Young is a deuce to his team. Too much of a liability. I'd play him and pay him as a 6th man ..come in and see if you can light it up....give him the greenlight and pull him if he ain't stroking the long ball. Otherwise he's top guy on a 2nd unit. Fr. His garbage D, garbage rebounding, declining playmaking - in relation to assists. He's on his decline ALREADY. He ain't HIM. I PROMISE YOU
What is he gonna say? I played ball in a physical era. I'm glad Bill called me away because I likely would have lost the fight against Willis. Adds nothing, takes nothing away.
@@hellofriendhypnosis yeah we get it you know what it feels like to get straight pimp slapped and do nothing but we want to hear John Salley perspective
Omg!!I remember going to the Omni as a child!!!My mother and I used to go watch OUR Hawks play sometimes 20 times a season!!!Im so very proud that I got my love of sports from my Mother!!!
Bad call, Salley instigated it by throwing a forearm and elbow at Willis' head right before the slap, which you can see in the live action shot early on. Shoulda been double ejection.
Kevin Willis was definitely on the 80s/90s Mt. Rushmore of dudes you dont want to F with. Salley talked a good game, but it was only because he had the real Bad Boys backing him up.
@@392_RHINO Yes! SUPER short T-Rex arms. Some of his Hawks teammates even nicknamed him "Dinosaur". He also had really small hands and feet (size 12) for a seven footer. And yet he was still a great rebounder in his prime.
This is when the Piston's got "old" because most if not all of their guys were aged between 29 and 31. According to Laimbeer, that's the only reason the Bulls finally got past them.
I'm an MSU fan, which is the school Kevin Willis came out of. Willis was an invisible big man while at State, but was able to parlay that into a 21 year career in the NBA. That he is taking a shot at Salley and not Lambier tells you Kevin is sharper than you think.
Salley adjusting his goggles @ 2:31 is hilarious, freeze it right there for a good laugh. Willis slapped that man's goggles off and he just took it. You have to at least ACT like you want to fight when you know somebody else is going to break it up.

Ironic seeing Laimbeer as the peacekeeper. Lol.
Beat me to it
Ain’t that a hoot. Laimbeer a peacemaker
Notice the mask Laimbeer is wearing? That's from an elbow from Seattle's Olden Polynice. =p
Right
John Salley in an interview stated he and Bill Laimbeer had at least 20 fights during practice, John said he lost all of them. Lol !!!
That sound effect at the end caught me off guard! 😂 Almost took me out of commission! Y'all wrong! 😂😂
😂😂😂
Agree that was hilarious
It was like the sound effects from an 80's kung fu movie. 🤣
😂😂😂🤣🤣😂

I like that Slap sound at the end 👍
I truly miss this era of NBA basketball.
I can’t get through a whole NBA game these days, it’s just not as fun to watch.
@@IWantToBelieve1 too much stoppage and soft calls these days
I like the modern game... I watch football, hockey or actual boxing when I want to see fights! 🙃
THE PHYSICALITY AND the rivalries were amazing. I truly miss it.
Me too. The players hated each other back in the day that’s why they fought every damn game lol
John Salley in an interview stated he and Bill Laimbeer had at least 20 fight during practice, John said he lost all of them. Lol !!!
Salley had to walk away...Willis would have just beat his ass if he tried him
I think that’s why he slapped him. He knew Salley wasn’t about nothing
He doesn't didn't swing back LoL 😂🤣
Salley was waiting for the ref to come in between for a hold holdddddd me back!
He wanted no parts of that. Kevin Willis was almost built like Dwight Howard but w/o the playfulness and sus behavior
salley played him by instigating and getting him thrown out great move by salley..the bad boys would beat you physically and mentally!!
Grew up in this era but just now realizing all these players look like their 35-40yrs old🤣🤣🤣
Yeah sure Willis does
Kevin Willis was always 40 years old.
In todays era, youre suspended for couple of games. And people look at you like you're a psychopath. What a weak era.

Miss the 80's and 90s when grown men played sports.
This was the golden era of the NBA. I’m a die hard Hawks fan. I cut my teeth with this team. I remember making a hoop from a hanger and bald up newspaper as a ball😂
My 3 favorite players of all-time played for the Atlanta Hawks:
- Dominique Wilkins
- Dikembe Mutombo
- Stacey Augmon
It ain't easy being a Hawks fan but keep loyal. They will win a championship sometime in the near future.

Kevin Willis one of Detroit's Pershing highs finest and Michigan State University's finest players ever College and professional 🏀
Go Green!
Didn't know Willis was from Detroit. He probably had the honor of losing to my Cooley Cardinals.😂
That sound effects lap was tooooooooo funny!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought you not supposed to hit a man with goggles...
Man I miss this NBA. Look at all those stars both of them were super teams
He slapped John ass and John ain’t run back up 😂 😆
Willis was a warrior. Don't you young folk get it twisted.
He made his mark.
Bad call, Salley instigated it by throwing a forearm and elbow at Willis' head right before the slap, which you can see in the live action shot early on. Shoulda been double ejection.
I agree,, Salley did start it,, but ejection? Naw,, they both should've been hit with a flagrant 1
that's a PLAY ON
that wasn't an forearm thrown at his head...Willis slapped him because John pushed him, that's all...that's definitely an ejection.
@@boricuafrican1 yah it was. As dirty player Zeke says in the Bad Boys doc, "tape don't lie".
@@JK-br1mu right it don't lie...he only slapped him after he was PUSHED.

Hahaha yes because expectedly Laimbeer is a troubleBrawl Maker specially against M Jordan and Charles Barkley
LOL. Yes well said. This is rare footage indeed.
love those old Hawks teams; i esp. miss when Hawks games were broadcast nationally on TBS (and TNT?)
Sally ain't want no pressure with kevin
Laimbeer was like, if they don’t eject him, we’re gonna tune his @ss up, let’s wait and see what happens! Lmao…
Yeah right lol
Lol, slap sound effect is hilarious
The sound fxs at the end 🤣😂🤣
The announcers didn't notice or mention the forearm shot Salley took at Willis' head which prompted the slap response.
Great old school. Love the sound effects.
The slapping sounds at the end💀
The look 👀 of disbelief while glasses were crooked was too funny. Dis _ jus slapped me
Kevin Willis was definitely on the 80s/90s Mt. Rushmore of dudes you dont want to F with. Salley talked a good game, but it was only because he had the real Bad Boys backing him up.

How did his T-Rex arms reach Salley's face? LOL!

Man Kevin was so strong he had muscles in his forehead
*Salley has alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllways been soft. I did CRY laughing, even when Kobe punked him*
Why he ain't bring this up in Vlad interviews?
Kevin Willis the big MSU Spartan who played in the leadue for 20+ years.
I loved 80s 90s b ball..REAL B BALL BACK THEN
Detroit was bullyball not basketball.
Knocked that man’s glasses off lol 😂
John Salley never hit the weight room in his entire career 😂.... He's one center who always got pushed around 🤣🤣
He was drafted as a SF/PF he was never a center.
they pushed him around so much he got two rings!!!

Shieeeeet!
No the fuck he wasn't. He knows that's Kevin Willis.
Love the slap sound!!! Lol 😂

Was worth every penny.
I bout fell out of my seat when I heard the sound effect. ROTFL!
Slapped his fancy new goggles right off his face 😂😂😂😂
Basketball was way more enjoyable to watch back then. The crap now isn't basketball lol.
Spider didn't want to mess with Willis
Imagine this: they eventually became teammates for just one year with the Miami Heat in 1994-95 season. Guess the water was under the bridge.
Of course, what were they gonna do? fight each other everyday? 😏

Negated Zeke's crossover and sweet finger roll
The difference between playing for Detroit and being FROM Detroit
Played him like a fiddle, now you're ejected.
Salley didn't want that smoke with Willis.
Of course they don't show in the replay where Sally tries to decapitate Willis with his elbow. Great call!
Look at all those elbows being thrown
LMFAO DID NOT EXPECT THE SOUND EFFECTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Spider got swatted.
John Salley was such a clumsy offensive player
I miss basketball 🏀
These two would terrorize today's nba.
BS! John Salley would be soft in the WNBA!!
Best era ever! 👍
one of the most expensive slaps ever
I loved this Hawks team!
I remember Watching Kevin Willis buck down Josh Smith when Josh was a early in the league....He didnt play around..mad respect
Hubie Brown been calling games forever
