NBA Champions Pistons Walk Off After Being SWEPT By MJ (1991) [Archive] - Message Board Basketball Forum

They were butt hurt, then used the Celtics walking off on them in '88 to justify what they did, even though the Celtics case was different. Coaches for the Celtics were worried Detroit fans were gonna storm the court when the game ended, which is why the players left early.

Imagine a dynasty getting ragdolled in their prime

Isiah, Dumars and Isiah were all under 30 when MJ beat them, while KG, Pierce and Allen were all 34-35

Dynasty in their prime? LOL

Pistons only won 50 games that year, only 31-17 in the games Isiah played compared to being 59-23 the year before. It was obvious they were on the decline.

1991: the first championship year when the flagrant foul actually became effective league-wide. What a coincidence. :eek:

1/4

He cost the Bulls 3 titles (4 if you include his shitty play in the 95' playoffs)

Anytime a series was close or lost, it was Pippen's poor play that caused it

It isn't intelligent to bring that up given the facts that I pointed out

It's like bragging about the Clippers winning 10 games in their 10-72 season

That's why Lebron barely meeting his underdog expectation in the Finals is pathetic.. And of course he shouldn't have underdogs because he starts with the preseason favorite - only a bad brand of ball causes his favored talent to underachieve

So wait... The Pistons had a starting lineup of 3x all-stars and a era-changing defense that beat Boston and LA, so surely Jordan had a super-team like the Celtics/Lakers

Yep, i think the pistons also did some sort of 'jordan rules' thing against bird bt. But unlike jordan, he didn't whine to the refs about it.

I don't see eye to eye on a lot of things with 3ball. But he's still one of the most intelligent analysts on this forum.

That aside, there's more to an epic rivalry that just the players. It's also about the fans. People who weren't from the Chicago/Detroit area during that time period probably have no clue just how bitter that rivalry was. Now there's no objective measure to a "rivalry," so it comes down to someone's "opinion," but in this case you're making an opinion while completely lacking first hand knowledge. And you are wrong. End of story.

Nobody in this thread said the Pistons/Celtics rivalry was better, but ShawkFactory said it best, they were basically the same. Previous champs going up against the young and hungry team who would eventually dethrone them. Only difference is the Bulls-Pistons played each other like 4 straight years (2 of those series were not competitive), but at the peak of both rivalries they were basically on the same level. The '87 series between the Celtics-Pistons was better than any Chicago-Detroit series, you had a couple of crucial games going down to the wire, the most famous steal in history, a bunch of fights breaking out, & Dennis Rodman & Isiah almost starting a race war because of their Larry Bird comment :lol.

The Pistons walked off because they knew that the series was fixed. NBC and Dick Ebersol fixed every single title that the Bulls won. Ebersol saw it as a TV show, not a real sport (with MJ as the good guy, and everyone else as the bad guys).

The only legit championships won in the NBA on NBC era were the 94 Rockets and 99 Spurs (I think the 95 Rockets won a rigged series. MJ was back, and the league didn't want the Magic to win. They ordered them to throw the series, and they ordered Shaq to go to LA in the summer of 96. They wanted to weaken the Bulls' biggest threat in the East).

Come on bro. What the Pistons did wasn't basketball. Kicking guys in the head, tackling, taking guys legs out from under them? I mean, how logical is it to say thst the Pistons could only bes the Bulls if they were able to try to hurt them?

He has a totally different set of rules for players. He applies the same logic to Jordan the first 3 years of his career as to why he couldn't get a win in the playoffs. Win a playoff series that is. Because Jordan was young. But James? Pippen? They're not being able to win at a young age makes them bums. And Pippen played with a back injury his first year. And James did take his team to the Finals early in his career

Nobody talks about this now but Bulls were talking all kinds of smack about Detroit once they went up 3-0 and the series was essentially over. Basically called Detroit unworthy championships because of their 'dirty' style of play and how the league wanted to get away from that. How the Bulls' style of play was much more representative of how the game should be played. And how happy everybody was that Bulls were kicking Detroit's ass in the series. All of this talk was led by MJ himself.

Detroit felt super disrespected (along with being butt hurt over the sweep) and this was their response.

Consult a dictionary. There are more than one definitions of the word "competitive." One of them is a synonym for "rivalry." I assued that since the debate was about RIVALRIES, you were using that definition of the word. And in that sense of the word, I stand by my statement. the '91 sweep was one of the most competitive ever.

I also generously pointed out that if you using a different sense of competitive, meaning evenly matched, which is irrelevant to the debate, then I concede that the '87 series was more competitive. Obviously.

You're not going to weasel your way out of this one Dudley. ;)
