If you didn't grow up watching this era of basketball, you missed out on a lot: the rivalries, the NBA on NBC, the crowds (Garden chanting Scottie), the physical play, the dislike between Riley and Jackson, an epic game 5.
The crazy thing about the Riley Jackson dislike is it goes back to when they were players. I strong recommend everyone to watch this whole series tho because of the way they were going back and fourth at each other through the media
compared with today, it seems like a different sport. I particularly dislike todays fake bench reactions and how these players want to "express" themselves through lame sneakers instead of through their game.

If it wasn't for Scottie pippen the bulls don't win this series. Pippen was great in games 3 5 and 6. Jordan struggled from the field in games 3 and 6 he was 3-18 in game 3 and 8-24 in game 6 .

They had to add stat metrics when he came into the NBA. Scottie did so many little things the average fan wouldn't notice. Stripping balls, tipping balls, creating turnovers with head fakes, taking charges. Notice Jordan watching Scottie with 2nd squad thinking, "shit, I created a monster! He's better than ME!" Scottie wouldn't have been Scottie without Mike, make no mistake. But Mike never won a title until Scottie became Scottie. Took a few years but dayum! After they swept Detroit, he never backed down to nobody again. Ppl forget just how great Scottie was..at everything...
@@tonyjohnson4347 Exactly! Nobody ever mentions this. Jordan get credit for developing Scottie, but it was Phil Jackson who put the ball in Scottie's hands and said, "You run the offense." That was the move that turned the Bulls into champions. They had to stop playing through Jordan so much, and run everything through Scottie. Pippen could be trusted to get everyone involved and not allow Jordan to shoot the ball too much.
Get the fuck outta here. Jordan led him in every stat except rebounds, and he was only more efficient because the defense let Scotty beat them while double and triple teaming Jordan. Xavier McDaniel left and he used to bully Pippen. Even with Jordan shooting bad (from zones , double / triple teams) he still scored more and contributed more across the board than sidekick Scottie. Without Jordan, the Bulls would’ve been swept with Pippen averaging 18 to 20 on 40% just like in 1994 when he didn’t have Jordan to carry him. (Don’t bring up that they went to 7 . Bulls added players to replace MJ and Derek Harper was suspended half the series)

Pippen could have been the ECF MVP here, and maybe with at least 1 individual award on his name, (he also deserve at least 1 DPOY) would keep him from being bitter as he is today.

Pippen was super in this series. That Dunk on Starks in game 5 ( with the stare down lol) was so nasty.
That would be at least a technical these days and guys would’ve wanted to fight. It was so different back then.
he owned Charles smith this series too. game 5 ending was classic
