They were the team a lot of people back then loved to hate but they were so good they should've won 3 straight. Isiah really sacrificed his own stats for the better of the team but he took over in the most crucial moments. They had Isiah, Joe Dumars, Vinnie Johnson, Dantley and then Mark Aguirre and all those guys can score and take over a game whenever they wanted to.
No, it'll never be this good again because players don't improve and the rules don't just allow guys to play freely without everything being a foul; plus there's no intelligence in the game -- half court offense and defense, milking the clock, using 3 or 4 options a play, patience, timing, and overall teamwork where you actually care and don't have a 3-point shooting contest.
The Bad Boys would neutralize their rivals biggest strength. Portland was the best rebounding team in 1990 and didn't out-rebound the Pistons in any game this series. Even with Rodman on the bench for most of it.
Well Joe Dumars won one of the Finals MVP's. And it wasn't just Isiah either. They're one of the greatest defensive team ever and had a deep rotation. Detroit had a three-headed monster in the backcourt. Bill Laimbeer and Dennis Rodman did their shit. Wasn't just Isiah at all and he'd be the first to tell you that.
@@xavierrodriguez7938Celtics in the 84 Finals played the Lakers really hard. No one cries about that but everyone cries about how hard the Pistons played teams during their 5 year run in the ECF. Jordan had every ref in his pocket by the mid 90s. They let him get away with anything and gave him every call, and that started with him crying about the Pistons.
The Bulls were the real hackers. Pistons shot 60 more free throws in 89. Mike averaged 5 fouls a game that year. The fan base is gullible when it comes to the Bad Boys.
Bunch of crock. Magic's injury was due to the guards lighting his ass up Detroit was 6-0 against them that year Keep making this excuse. Magic Johnson couldn't guard none of the 3 Detroit guards
See millennial competition men not plumbers doctor fireman fundamental few athletes balance scoring not alot of outside 30 feet bombs most importantly defense!@!!
Physical Basketball: Now do we see the LIES about the Pistons how they just beat people up -- NO!... The Pistons just played basketball and knew when to play physical basketball but you cannot play physical basketball by putting yourself in a losing situation, you have to read the actual game which takes intelligence and you never take momentum from yourself. The game overall was physical because everyone would hand check, bump off screens, body guys off the dribble, and obvious fouls were called and teams were professional knowing nobody was trying to hurt anyone -- that idealism came out through Jordan not being able to win -- Jordan thinks if you foul him you are trying to end his career because Michael Jordan is crazy enough to think the game of basketball revolves around his own personal biases...so if Jordan doesn't like it, it's not 'good' basketball...so now we see the fruit of 'The Jordan-Era' which is terrible soft effeminate basketball played now-a-days...now they have a guy who is 4-6 in the Finals being compared to Jordan, so you see the degeneracy of the NBA starting with Jordan and being this foolishness we are left with today.
@@AlexandreGthe fact that you need to have it spelled out that they're really good at basketball when they are literally in the NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION and just by being in the league are de facto the greatest players in the world says quite a bit about you, too, Mr. Virtue Signal. Go Karen somewhere else
So they took care of business? Remember Zeke’s turnover in Game 5? The one that blew their chance at going up 3-2 otw back to Detroit? Or zeke shattering his ankle in the 88 finals of game 6 and STILL torching Magic. They had chances before these chips and eventually won bc they were good enough not none of that “everybody else was…” nonsense. Sounds just as dumb as people complaining about the number of teams during the Celtics run in the 60s
Looking back and seeing where the game's gone today, Isiah Thomas' game/style was way ahead of his time as a pg.
He gets no credit for his leadership or game bc of Jordan fanboys. He's my favorite PG ever.
Magnificent player .

The last champions of the NBA on CBS era
Bad Boys is my favourite team, Isiah Thomas is my favourite PG, and Bill Laimbeer is a underated center. He could shoot from everywhere of the court.
Man…will we ever be this good again😔
no 😂
Yes, Detroit isn’t handed superstars like the lakers or Celtics , they’ll build a squad again and take a chip by force like the pistons of old

Nope

The Pistons won 1989 X 1990 champs because Joe Dumars won the finals MVP

They wasn't doing the Lakers like they were fouling the bulls LoL 😂😂😂
They were but the media a make you think that’s all they did when they actually were a good basketball team

the 89 finals was won because of magic's hamstring and the 90 finals was won because of laimbeer 11 pts 12 rebs 12 opponents fouls

Who thought it was a good idea to not show the scoreboard the full game that would irritate me not knowing what the score was until they showed it 😂

They won 2, because:
1. Bird Celtics were in decline
2. Magic Lakers slowing down
3. Jordan Bulls not quite yet ready for primetime.
Magic needed the refs to win in 88
"They were just really good at basketball" not being one of your points tells a lot about you
