That whole we sucked. The Bulls-Jazz finals were so boring to watch. Utah scores 54 points in one of the games. It was shit basketball where every team just grinned it out.Gladstone said:ugh the romanticization of 90s NBA defense is one of biggest sports misnomers ever
The most points the Bulls scored was 93 against the Jazz in 98.
In the years after, the game was even worse. There were no good teams in the East and the formula was to grind it out and let Shaq or Duncan take over. It was truly a horrible era of hoops.
For as much shit as the stat geeks take from the old timers, they saved NBA basketball and helped make it entertaining again. The league can be soft, but the game is better. The talent is better imo too. -

I mean he lost to a team with an aging star and a bunch of guys from the retirement in 2011 w/ Bosh and Wade. Ray Allen bails em out in 2013. Kyrie bails em out.Gladstone said:

Difference between Lebron and Jordan?
Jordan hit the big shots. Although, Lebron hit one today.

Yes Kerr and Paxton. But, MJ hit a lot more important clutch shots in the playoffs than Lebron.Doogles said:backthepack said:

Cite your fucking source, there have been stats posted in this thread showing how LeBron has passed MJ in shots 5 seconds and under in the playoffs. If you aren't talking solely about that metric, then what metrics are you using to qualify "big shots?"backthepack said:Gladstone said:

Until then I will dismiss any post of yours as the usual butthurt anti-LeBron bullshit people espouse.
Embarrassing.

Can't find the data because a lot of isn't tracked (80s-95ish). I just think of MJ's shots as more iconic.BaldwinIV said:

Fact number 14.
"For his career, Jordan was 9-of-18 shooting in the playoffs on potential game-tying or go-ahead shots in the final 24 seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime. He was a perfect 3-of-3 on such shots in games when his team faced elimination and 4-of-7 when his team had an opportunity to clinch."
