      I'd say the Jazz in 98 and Suns in 93 could've possibly made history had the Bulls not made the game winning shot in each of the Game 6s vs those two teams. Remember both the Jazz and Suns were down 3-1 to the Bulls with Games 6 and 7 at home. The Jazz would've definitely had a great chance had Jordan missed at the end of Game 6

      @@ShaadsComicsandBeers I understand what you mean (especially with the Jazz in 1998 since Pippen may not have been able to play if there was a game 7) but while the Suns and Jazz each came heartbreakingly close to forcing a game 7 the Pacers actually reached that point against the Bulls and had a pretty big lead on them early on.

I'm a Chicago fan myself so I'm glad we didn't make that kind of history as well lol. I remember my dad hosted a big watch party for that final game 6 of the dynasty in 1998. We had at least a good 10-12 people in the basement watching that game, I remember we all celebrated like crazy when Stockton missed that last shot and we clinched that 6th and final championship

      1992 Knicks also pushed the Bulls to 7 games in the second round.
      And by looking at the replies in your comment in terms of honorable mentions in the 6 Finals seasons asides from the 1991 Lakers, 1993 Suns, and 1998 Jazz, we can also add the 1993 Knicks = Knicks had homecourt against the Bulls in the 1993 Eastern Finals, and the Knicks even took a 2-0 series lead, but then the Bulls backdoor swept them.

    Jordan didn't have his best shooting game but he made up for it with 9 rebounds (5 on offense), 8 assists and clamping Reggie in the 4th quarter.
    As for the Pacers, rebounding is once again an achillies heel in a Game 7 loss just like it was against the Knicks in 1994. As a team, they grabbed fewer offensive rebounds than Jordan grabbed by himself.

    The Pacers were really unlucky in the 90s, being in 3 ECFs and took their opponents to the limit, forcing the 7th and decisive game on each series only to fell short on each occasion.
    1994 ECF - their best chance of getting into the finals after stealing a 3-2 lead but botched both Games 6 and 7 against the Knicks in tough losses
    1995 ECF - took Shaq’s and Penny’s Magic to the limit but came off short in the 7th game as the Magic trashed them
    1998 ECF - Took MJ and the Bulls to the limit and were within an inch of upsetting the best team in the league but the offensive rebounds killed the Pacers in that game.

    NBA On NBC intros were always lit...bone chilling...goosebumps. Classic game and series. Rem this like yesterday. Bulls defense won this game and Kukoc was huge in that 3rd quarter. This was the one time I thought the Bulls dynasty was in jeopardy. They looked old at times. Their bench was weak that year. They had guys on the floor in that 4th quarter that had no business being on the floor like Simpkins, Beuchler. 98 Pacers were the best Pacers team of the 90s I felt. They were deep, better than the 2000 team that went to the Finals. I also think if Indy had home court that series, they may have won the series. Biggest shot of the game I think was that Kerr 3 at 30:34 and the Bulls winning the jump ball. That changed the game. I think if he misses that, Pacers got all the momentum.

      I don't think anybody played like a one player show until maybe Iverson?
      And i only say Iverson bc Philadelphia really didn't have any other skilled offensive players and still made the Finals
      But even those teams were closer to these Bulls than say James Harden's Rockets
      I don't understand why they say guys who don't shoot threes aren't playable. Is it against the rules now to cut to the basket?

    This was the highest between Jordan and Bird even as coach playing. Jordan MVP , scored 40 points and blast the pacers but Indiana came back to win and also drama Jordan got wound and got pushed by Reggie to shot 3 one of the greatest three point. Then Bulls came back from 16 points down from Kerr and Jud and Kukoc then solid defense for both teams just Jordan and the bulls won small margin in game 7.

    • @NONO-hz4vo
      @NONO-hz4vo 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hard to know. Modern teams move the ball so well and release their shots quick, specifically Steph. With the efficiency advantage of the 3pt line I am not sure who would win. Dray, Iggy, KD, Thompson, Curry is a pretty good shooting team compared to the numbers put up in the 90's.
      What the Bulls have besides Jordan is the hard nose defense you are not allowed to play today. With 80's ref's they may be able to take the Warriors out of their comfort zone and drop that shot percentage down a lot.
