Re: great Scottie Pippen interview about 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls
Depth is overrated.
On paper the 95-96 Orlando Magic were actually deeper than the Bulls.
Here's one for ya (in case this year's NBA Finals didn't drive the point home)
DEFENSE > Offense
Every time.
96 Bulls would take both the Lakers and Celtics out because they're the superior defensive team.
No one on Boston/L.A. would really stop Jordan from getting his 30-40 either. Or even stop Pippen from getting 20 IMO.

Re: great Scottie Pippen interview about 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls
Pippen is one ugly delusional overrated clown and 95-96 bulls is the most overrated team in NBA history. It's easy to win that many games in a weak and diluted era, especially if the commish rigged the games for you.
So do you like being what 19 maybe 20 max? Why is he overrated and how in gods green earth was the league diluted then? Explain...please no kidding. U mean diluted like the weak ass Similac you woulda been slugging back outta one of them dual handle, no spilly cups around that time? And the league has to be rigged nowadays because it can't get to the level it was back then in popularity or quality...

So sick of the fact that every Bulls hater brings out the same tired 80's argument. You only do it cause it's abstract and subjective and cant be proven either way. Cause when it comes to stats and figures and records, the Bulls have it over everybody. Theres nothing subjective or abstract about that.
You've got a definite hard-on for the 90's Bulls and I'm pretty sure it has something to do with your screen name. Look I'm sorry Sir Charles that Jordan denied Barkley (along with many other players) his best shot at getting a ring but that doesnt mean that you have to endlessly try to tear them down with bulls**t speculation and conjecture. You cant tear down 72-10. You cant tear down 6 titles in 8 years. You can't tear down 2 3-peats. You can't tear down the fact that Jordan is the GOAT.
But I know you'll try.

Re: great Scottie Pippen interview about 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls
All your arguments are coulda shoulda woulda. If so and so did this or if this guy was healthy or if this player was in his prime. You can't deal with the facts as they are so you deal with the subjective. And you gloss over the fact that there were 4 expansion teams in the 80's. The whole expansion argument is lame any ways cause is based on the notion that without expansion every team would of been better EXCEPT the Bulls.
When the Bulls won 72 games all of the haters harped on the fact that it was an expansion year while conveniently leaving out the fact that 1972 was an expansion year too.
Look I'm not saying that cause the Bulls won 72 games that it makes them far and away the better than the 80's Lakers or Celtics. Don't forget the Pistons either. I'm saying that it puts them up on the Mt. Rushmore of great teams. They have just as strong of an argument, if not better in some aspects for being considered the greatest of all time as any of those other teams do. Thats not **** sucking, thats being real.
And once again about this great team stuff. In order for any other team in the 90's to be considered great they would of had to beat the Bulls Would the Pistons of been considered great if they never got past the Celtics? Probably not. And using your logic that would bring the Celtics down a notch cause then they wouldn't of beaten a great Pistons team. It's so f**king convoluted. The Bulls took on all comers and ended up winning 6 out of eight years. They won series that they weren't supposed to win and kept many future hall of famers from winning rings. History would of judged the Knicks Suns and Jazz much differently if they had of beaten the great Micheal Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. Yet all you choose to do is pull some kind of negativity out of that.
Look say what you want. Bring up all your abstract arguments that will never get a chance to be proven. But if you're gonna say to me that Jordan and Pippen werent one of if not the greatest duo in NBA history, that Jordan Pippen and Rodman weren't one of the greatest trios of all time, that Phil Jackson isn't one of the greatest coaches ever and that players like Paxson and Kerr weren't clutch when it counted in the playoffs, then I'll just let you waste away in your own myopia.

Why did the Pistons beat the Celtics?
Easy. They had the...
THE BEST PERIMETER DEFENSE (before the Bulls) and the BEST FRONTLINE DEFENSE of the 1980s....
THEY COULD DEAL WITH "BOTH" THREATS!
but....their Offensive Capabilities Relied to Much on their talented PG Isiah Thomas, whose Role as PG ofcourse was 1st: To Create and then Secondly 2nd: To Score.
It is unatural B-Ball wise to have your PG taking the Scoring Load for the Whole Team and that eventually will kill a team, especially if this iTeam has No Interior Frontline Great D and even More with No Exterior Frountcourt Great D (with the Guards taking the Whole Scoring Load) to contain or diminuish the Opponent who had either Great Back Court Offense or Great Fronlinte Offense
(Teams like the 80s Lakers and Celtics, had both!).
Adrian Dantley. Their only Real Offensive Socoring Threat the Pistons had Left Early and was not in his prime in the late 80s. He played til 1989. So he was part of the schooling that the Pistons have to Jordan`s Bulls from 1984 to 1987 and Jordan-Pippen`s (Grant included) Bulls from 1987 to 1989
And If you want to go by facts then...
1980s Bulls = Nothing Against Celtic Big 3 and Laker Showtime.

Re: great Scottie Pippen interview about 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls
Nice link. That season seemed to take on a life of its own. It took me about a month to realize they were playing out of this world basketball and after that the first thing I checked in the paper was the bulls box. Only one other time that has happened that something gets my attention off the lakers box score first thing in the morning, and that is one Yankees season that I am convinced was the best baseball team that will play in my lifetime.

I'm assuming you meant the 90's Bulls.
Nothing though? Nothing at all? That what makes your argument so stupid. To say that a championship team led by Michael Jordan would have nothing against any team, from the 80's or otherwise has to be one of the stupidest things I've ever read on this board.

He's an idiot. I don't even bother with him anymore. Mind you, I think the '86 Celts are definitely better than any version of the Bulls and the '87 Lakers most likely are as well. But this dude constantly spouts nonsense.
If Barkley had [COLOR="Red"]Pippen[/COLOR], he would have had [COLOR="Lime"]8 rings[/COLOR]!!!! After all, Pippen played [COLOR="Magenta"]THE MOST MINUTES [/COLOR]in the '91 playoffs, so clearly he was [COLOR="SeaGreen"]the KEY PLAYER[/COLOR] for the Bulls when they won!
