They were very, very good, but fortune smiled their way, plus they had the NBA Rating Franchise in Michael Jordan.
I used to hate the refs back then because it seemed like Jordan would be on the receiving end of so many phantom calls. Ahhh, memories.
If you remove the Bull's fantastic season, there is one behind it that would be the best. Then people would be able to discount that one as well for various reasons. After a while, there would be no legitimate seasons, regardless of the stats.
Yea and mostly to blow a whistle in a difficult situation a scream HeY! by Jordan was enough.Quote:

Fuck 72-10. If we can lock up the top two seeds in the West, I will be very happy.
A friend(who's a rockets fan, actually, but loves the NBA) called me today who had been on his honeymoon:
Friend: Did I just hear on the radio the Spurs are 23-3?
Me: Yeah. So if we win 18 of our next 19, we'll be on pace with the '96 Bulls.
Friend: No...you're on pace with them now
Me: Well, okay, but we won't make it I'm sure.
Friend: But it's still so impressive! Think about it this way: Even if y'all only win every other game for the rest of the year, you'll still end up with 52 wins!
When I think about it that way...man. We have set ourselves up for quite a finish!

I don't see Pop doing that with Duncan/Ginobili/Parker (even if they were younger).
like Pop would care.

I'm talking about a player that shot the ball anywhere from 23-26 times a game, could get to the rim anytime he wanted (and did). Let me give you a little comparison to the league Jordan played in and the candy ass league the players are competing in today.Quote:

In '93 Michael Jordan, an athletic freak in his prime, played nearly 40 minutes a game, shot the ball 26 times a game. He only shot the three about 2-3 times a game. He averaged 7 free throws that year...pretty much around the average he always had.
Manu Ginobili this year plays 32 minutes a game, shoots the ball 13 times a game. Shoots the 3 point shot about 7 times a game. And yet still somehow averages 6 free throws a game. That's basically one free throw less than Jordan for a player who puts up half the shot attempts. TWICE as many threes and plays almost a full quarter less :lol
That's how freakin easy it is for players to get to the line these days. The same goes for the rest of these stars today (D-Whistle, Lebron, Durant, etc). Michael Jordan (and Scottie Pippen for that matter) would KILL to play in this league today. If Jordan were getting any phantom calls at all he was getting them FAR less than the players of today.
I hope that was sarcasm because unlike the bitch-made stars of today Jordan never verbal flopped like a sissy to get calls. Other than Reggie Miller perimeter players used to play with integrity in that era. And Spurs fans should know what a good verbal flop sounds like since Tony Parker screams "HEY" (ala Kobe) every single time he gets in trouble in the paint.Quote:

I was not sarcastic - that's the way it was and you can realize this by watching Bulls games and treatment they had back then. I'm talking about 2nd peat
btw. the defense back then was not as good as it is now.
The rules have changed because of the D getting better and refs could not handle the contact issues and game was getting slow and not fun [still they interpret it by not so strict rules]
I was not a fan of changes but it occurred to be good
PAO and Oly have combined to win 17 of the past 18 Greek League championships. That's 94.4%. (Btw, they have both started 9-0 in a 26 game season. There's a good chance that neither team will lose a single to any of the Washington General clones in that joke of a league).Quote:
