@@leestens5539 Nobody cares about college basketball anymore because they leave after 1 year. I barely know any of the players who are drafted. I only notice some of them after they play about 2 years of pro ball. Also, most of the stars these days are coming from Europe.
I agree. I followed the players in college and watched them transition to the nba. The game was alot better. Still wish that Fab 5 could have ran it back one more time...that dam C-Web was a beast.
That was just a good hard foul. He went for the ball, realized he wasn’t gonna get there & just fouled Ewing to prevent an easy bucket. I mean MJ, who was 6 inches shorter & 40 lbs lighter than Ewing took multiple shots like that from Detroit every single time they played for like four years.
Best basketball channel on RUclips showing clips from the best, most physical, emotionally intense era of basketball where being mentally and physically tough and durable was just as important as being athletically skilled and consistent. The pure f*ck you attitude of the players was golden. Some of the games during that era were a combo of football, boxing and hockey from a physical standpoint all packaged in tightly contested games of basketball. Even the Bulls +70 season was a tough brutal road with nearly no blow out wins and tightly fought clutch game winners. Truely a time were the rules favored those who had the balance of great skills and tough skin.
That was no doubt a cheap shot by Harper i dont know if i would have shook his hand on that one that was a body shot he clearly gave Ewing a body check on purpose
@@fitness4life67 I played in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. The game was rougher in the 80s and 90s. We didn't complain about the roughness. We understood hand-checking, some pushing and shoving were just part of the game. That Ron Harper foul was not dirty in my opinion. He went up for the ball, realized he wasn't going to get it, and then was proactive against the collision he knew was coming. You either let the larger person dictate the contact which is not a good thing for you physically or you try to dictate the terms of the collision. I don't think Harper was being dirty at all. I think he was just protecting himself against the collision with a much larger player.
Not really a cheap shot. He saw he wasn’t gonna get the ball, so he hip checked him to prevent an easy bucket. It’s actually a good foul to prevent an easy 2. No different than a DB knowing they’re gonna get torched for a TD, so they just bump the WR so they can’t get an easy TD.
I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. Even though I was PUMPED when Pat Ewing got traded to Seattle in 2000, I still think Ewing was fight-happy, and I don't like that.
Crooked refs, so Ewing gets fouled hard, he reacts but not violently, the refs get together and take advantage of the situation and confer to give the championship team the Bulls a point by giving Ewing the "T" and Harper a mediocre player just a personal foul, should've been a flagrant foul on Harper because he made no play for the ball. The Bulls probably had a lot of bets on them and well I'm sure some of the refs were in on that action as well.
You need to understand that back then, flagrants weren’t handed out like candy on Halloween like they are now. That was nothing more than a good hard foul as per the rules back then. The rules on things like this all changed when Ron Artest went into the stands after an asshat fan threw a drink at him in 2004, during the “malice at the palace” incident in Detroit. Also, Ewing got the T, because he ignored the ref who told him to knock it off like 5 times. You should know WTF you’re talking about before you spout conspiracy theories.
Yea Ewing just react like that for no reason right ? Cmon that was clearly a dirty play if u understand the game of basketball man but it’s all good tho
To me, the NBA was so much better then. At least I knew the player's names and where they went to college.
Hell yeah!! And the college game were awesome too.
I think I'm literally the only one but I never cared about where any of them went to college

The fact that you don’t know the names of the players really has nothing to do with the current NBA.
BEST BASKETBALL TIME EVER
This was the real NBA.. not the "puppets show" of today.
Agreed
ah yes, plodding big men and a league wide allergy to 3 point shooting
More like a minstrel show today.

I keep saying to those who want to listen...If it weren't for this channel, we would never have known..keep up the retro good work my man 👍
Will do 👌
First quarter of a reg season game is more intense than today's playoff games.

@@JohnDoe-zr8pc Lol, feels that way far too often
Only Jordan could've separated Ewing from fighting Harper. Patrick would've killed any other Bulls player who tried that.
For sure. Makes sense, they were very good friends.
😐
How about Pippen?😅

Ron Harper...class of himself
Rodman rebound! 🔥
Oakley is the enforcer for real 🤣
Boy. Oakley was a scrub. A certified scrub. Produced nothing.
Now go ahead and come back with the tough guy nonsense that produces nothing
@@jrsmith1998 THANK YOU ‼️ tough guys don't produce numbers. Give me Anthony Mason all day over Oakley

But they didn’t

That wasn't so bad. Harper was outweighed by 60-70lbs. It was no doubt a foul but Ewing overreacted. You've seen too much of today's game.
@@Just1Bum Do you even play ball?? That was not an overreaction at all. I've played ball 40 years.

@@fitness4life67 FACTS!
Patrick Ewing was like what bumbaclot lol
I know Pat screamed out "bumbaclot" whenever he was about to get into some shit on the court.
Harper thought he had a chance to intercept but realized in the air he didn't. Was like uh oh. My bad
yeah okay nice fantasy...lol
@@fitness4life67 ?
agreed, some people seem to forget you can't put the brakes on mid-air
Bulls fan but love to watch them and the Knicks go at it. All physical 😂
A rare moment when a player from the opposite team tries to calm down another player.

No one was late at the beginning of the third quarter at these matches. I watched them in 4 AM.
Why does the audio keep changing & sounding muffled?
Ewing is so nostalgic
The “plumbers” era was way better than todays game
Harper was classy there!
Lol Patrick got up suckin his teeth charging at Ron saying "bumbaclot"
hey,where do we watch the full game,so clear of quality of this video
That was not a dirty cheap anything thing!!! He mistimed the jump and had to make contact with a7 ft Giant!!! Wtf
Patrick Ewing never been overly physical or or overly aggressive gets in people faces but without swinging just stares
If stares could kill...
Rodman was the king of technical fouls.
Good Foul
A pissed off Patrick Ewing... you better run! Lol
From what .. he wasn’t hittin shit
Jordan was in his face the whole time😂
I remember Jalen Rose backed away from Ewing 😂😂
I knew a guy who said that a young Ewing always wanted to fight just because he was big.
Should have been a flagrant foul
It wasn't intentional, they both wanted to grab that ball.... Harper jumped high and collided.
The day Patrick Ewing went "APE" on Ron Harper bwahahaha _get it? get it?_
WOW!!!
That was more incidental contact than a cheap shot
Kids had role models back then...
THAT WAS TWO PLAYERS GOING FOR THE BALL*
Pat was a big man idk ron
Sí lo tacleo...pero así se jugaba en esa era: ¿quién de nosotros no visitó el piso ?
The Bulls were a great team. But a DIRTY team.
The Knicks weren't exactly clean either.
All the good teams in that era had some dirtiness to them, you had to get dirty if you wanted to win.
Who cares Hutchinson
Man that was 1st quarter..
💯
0:57 then they shared love
Pat my guy but he don't want none of Hollywood
Why did Harper get to shoot when he was the one who crashed into Ewing?
It was Jordan who shot the technical, watch it again. Jordan is #23, in case you are unaware...
@@fitness4life67 U know what he meant. Tell him the real reason. Because Jordan was more important to the nba than the bulls.

@@bballvault you're half right. The dirty part of the play was Ewing almost taking Harper's head off with his elbow.
