      @@Rumble225-qe7fy It's like you're watching another sport really. Late 90s to about 2004 the game was slow paced, physical and incredibly defensive minded. Not to mention the games seemed more intense, mainly in the playoffs. You can understand why the game changed so much, I doubt the league wanted a team like the 2004 Pistons to be the face of the Nba. They did whatever they could to remove the physicallity and make the game as offense-minded as possible and it worked.

      Actualy if you look at statistics, it seam that Chicago was lucky to win this finals. Jordan was hiting 43% of 3 pointers (what is unusual for him) and whole Portland team was hiting just 20% despite having better snipers like Porter (carier average 38%) Danny Ainge (carrier average 37%) Drexler (32%). It seams that Portland should have won this, if not the unlucky shooting.

      While Drexler’s rebounds and assists per game were higher than Jordan’s, his scoring efficiency went way down. Drexler’s regular season 47/34/80 dipped to 40/15/90 in the Finals. Jordan shot 53/43/89 in the Finals, which is pretty insane.

      It was interesting that the first 11 possessions that the blazers had in the 4th quarter the refs made every call against them. Some really bad ones, even the commentators talked about it. That is what allowed the bulls to come back from a 15 point deficit. If the roles had been switched with the blazers coming back and winning over the bulls in this fashion, bulls fans would have been screaming from the rooftops that the fix was in. This is why I firmly believe that the game was fixed for the bulls to win.

I think it was more of a blessing that he went to chicago where he showed what he can do as a player and had good coaches like doug, who helped michael reach his full potential as an individual player and phil, who showed MJ how to thrust his team and then eventually showed him how to win it all..

You sometimes don't see that type of defense on highlights because the defensive traps forced Jordan to pass or make a turnover which doesn't show up on highlights. Also Jordan turns away from a double that he feels coming you often won't even see the double forming in a highlight video.

    The people who say MJ didn't have any competition at SG in his era, Drexler was the real deal. Terry Porter was the 2nd best player on those Portland teams(he did have a few great underrated seasons 89-92) and Clyde got his Trailblazers squad to 2 NBA Finals. Even when he left Portland he was still a very good player for Houston. If history went different and Hakeem somehow was drafted by Portland over Bowie, Drexler wins multiple titles in Portland and is looked at in a totally different light.
