    It's cool watching the "Bad Boys" 30-for-30 perspective on the Bulls-Pistons and then this perspective.  The whole walking off the court in 1991 really was a bitch move by the Pistons.  That team really was a bunch of assholes, but they certainly admitted to being just that.
    God bless Bill Laimbeer!
    Of all the Pistons players, I despised Laimbeer the most.  What a prick that guys was. 

    Agreed! First thing I think about when it comes to the Detroit Pistons, is how big of a prick Laimbeer was. I love that the hatred for the teams was real, not just fan driven.

    That's why I remembered the Bad Boys shirt. I remember a few kids in high school had the thump and bump shirt.

    I was surprised they didn't use Black, Red and Yellow for any part of the Rodman segment. They did show him in a Pearl Jam shirt for a minute.

    1988-89 was the first full year of following the NBA since it was the first year with cable for me so I watched a ton, including the Knicks sweep of the Sixers in the first round.

    Hawkins Dawkins Barkley Mahorn
    I watched that team a lot on satellite.  Loved them, that was my favorite team.  Was a Barkley fan throughout his time, rooted for whatever team he was on.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Of all the good Philly teams in my lifetime, that 89/90 Sixers squad might still be top five for me....even though they only last two rounds. Fucking Bulls!

    I watched Game 7 against the Pacers from the 98 conference finals.  Absolute slugfest and obvious both teams had given everything they had.  Two things stood out.  The Bulls dominated on the offensive glass and the other being they probably don’t win if not for Kukoc blowing up in the 3rd quarter.  Does anyone know why Rodman didn’t start that game?
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    They benched Rodman for entire Series at a time based on the matchup

    I saw a story on ESPN where MJ said that was the scariest game they ever faced.  The Pacers jumped out to a double-digit lead in that game and it looked like they were taking advantage of Kukoc not able to defend in the paint.  I hope they go over this series in the documentary.  I would love to hear why Jackson thought Kukoc was a better matchup.

    I think it was to space the floor.  Draw Dale Davis out of the paint
