    They stomp the Rockets in 94, but even if they keep Grant I don't see them beating the 95 Rockets with Drexler on board.
    ^this but I think 94 would've gone 7 games, and Rockets would've been in it and possibly won. It's hard to picture Jordan losing two straight finals but it was possible.

    You acting like the Bulls who routinely owned the Knicks had no shot vs Houston sounds a little homerish to me, then again you are a Houston fan. The Bulls in that era were good enough to beat anyone, to say so is downplaying them.
    It wasn't an "owning". The Knicks routinely failed to achieve, and the Bulls, not just Jordan, executed.

    Horrible logic, the '94 team was better than the '95 team. The '95 team got rolling late but that was in part due to the fact that the Magic got rattled after losing Game 1 the way hey did. The '94 team was consistently good, other than losing the opening games of the series at home to the Suns and enduring the Choke City moniker.
    Are you serious? That 94 team was constantly blowing big leads in the playoffs. The 95 team may have looked like in the regular season, but Drexler made them a nightmare matchup in the playoffs, no longer the one man Olajuwon show. The 95 Rockets were one of the strongest teams of the nineties, I'd take them over most of the Bulls le teams based on the compe ion they went through. The 94 Rockets are one of the weakest le teams I have ever seen, they needed 7 to beat a lousy Knicks team with Ewing shooting 36%.

    95 maybe, 94 the team that almost lost to the Knicks in 7, NO.
    Yeah, 94? They came one block from losing to a Knicks team with Ewing just ting himself all series. Starks gets that three off and it's goodnight Houston in six.

    Yep, the Knicks were up 3-2 going home and choked. Starks shot 2-17 in game 7 (Which was not the whole story because in game 6 he was great but gets the blame). I agree on Goodnight Houston in 6 if he gets it off, this dude above is trying to tell me that this team was dominant when the Suns took them 7 (Actually choked a 3-1 lead) and this one goes 7 and they could have lost to the Knicks that they could have beaten the Bulls? I don't think so. 95 Houston with Hakeem in GOD mode had a shot because Bulls had nothing to counter that, then again Jordan was nothing to be messed with either in the Finals when he was on his A game (He just found a way to beat you).

    I agree, that is why I called him a homer for saying that 94 team and asking me if I was serious trying to convince me otherwise. The 94 team was better during the year yes, but in the playoffs they almost lost to the Suns team and could have lost to the Knicks team in the finals (Hardly head above heals on compe ion). The 95 team when they got it together later was a different demon, period.

    Jordan owned the Knicks man, he played great at MSG routinely. The Knicks did their fair share of choking fair enough but man the Bulls had their # in the playoffs.

    The difference between Cavaliers fans and Knicks fans is that Cavaliers fans have no trouble admitting their team was MJ's bottom .

    First of all I saw those games. Second, Cleveland has no pride in any sport, so it's moot. You're used to that .

    No I'm not, I'm just saying that them nearly losing to the Knicks doesn't mean they're worse than the '95 team. The '95 team suffered some injuries but was worse in many ways (no Otis Thorpe versus an over the hill Clyde the Glide for example). The '95 team, with that said, had arguably the greatest playoff run of all-time.

    You always judge a team by the playoffs and not the regular season. You gonna tell me the 2000 Lakers were better than the 2001 Lakers?

    Please, the '95 team was one of the most clutch teams of the 90's but they got run off the floor entirely too many times to be called one of the best teams of the 90's and better than some of the Bulls teams. They had tough compe ion, having to go up against at least 6 notable Hall-of-Famers not including Tom Chambers and Penny Hardaway but if they were so good, they shouldn't have needed to come back so many times and get run by 10+ points so many times.

    Yes, teams hit peaks and valleys. Anyone can catch lightning in a bottle at the right time in the post-season, look at George Mason and VCU. Heck, look at the '95 Rockets.

    We're not going back to the 100 questions days with you, amb.

    You wouldn't kneel before me at fault, I acquiesced.

    You knelt before the bum at fault. I laughed.
