[QUOTE=Bronbron23;14313954]That's cool you can think whatever you want even though it has no basis. Mine does though.
Again though please tell me all about how someone who can't pass or defend and shoots 40% or worse without threes is gonna make the bulls or any team better. Still waiting on one of yall idiots to acknowledge this. You just keep avoiding the question.[/QUOTE]
What do you think Pete Myers numbers would be today? Pts, RBD, assts, FG% And please tell me Scottie Pippens as well.
[QUOTE=Shooter;14313970]They almost won a chip with Pete Myers, who averaged 1-1-1 in the 1995 Playoffs. Any slight upgrade and they win the chip. Easily win with Klay or Kyle Lowry.[/QUOTE]
they lost in 7 to the knicks. in the eastern semis. don't think that is "almost" winning. klay & lowry are definitely names i can co-sign though. with pip's playmaking, klay would have been a very good fit.

No any slight upgrade and maybe they get passed the knicks. They don't win a chip though. A major upgrade and maybe they win a chip. That's kind of the whole point though buddy. Demar isn't a slight up grade. He has a negative impact on the game. He's not very good and in the post season he's worse than that although based on you switching to klay or lowery looks like your finally getting that.
And no they don't win a chip with lowery. Lowery is a basic gaurd who takes advantage of these rules. Put him in the 90's and he's an average gaurd. Klay is an interesting one. They still don't win a chip with him but they definitely make it to the finals and put up a decent fight.

Nobody is stopping Scottie's Bulls with Klay or Lowry. 1994 Rockets were weak. 1995 may be different but 1994 would have been a cake walk.

I think it's in relation to the fact that the Knicks beat the. Bulls in 7 hard fought games and the Rockets beat the Knicks in 7 hard fought ganes. Thus all 3 teams were pretty much on the same level.

The Bulls with or without Derozan don't match up well with the Rockets.

I have no idea. Probably not much difference. It's irrelevant though.
Let me try to help you. In 94 against the knicks in the second round myers averaged 7 pts a game on 53% fg. DeRozan in the post season in his career has averaged 22 pts on 42%. So if we apply that to that series Here's what you have to consider. DeRozan plays in an easier scoring era so if were dropping DeRozan in the mid 90's we can automatically take a couple points fg% away. So let's be generous and say he'd be at 20pts on 40% fg. Now we have to take into account playing minutes. He played twice as many minutes as myers. So if were talking about an exact switch and he's playing the exact amount of minutes then you can pretty much cut DeRozans points in half so now he's at 10 points on 40%fg. Let's be fair and give him an extra 5% fg for taking less forced shots as a role player and he's at 10pts on 45%fg.
So what your saying is the extra 3 pts on considerable less fg% is gonna be significant upgrade and the shit just dosn't make sense dude.
If were not talking about an exact switch and DeRozan is playing his usual 40 min and taking his usual inefficient shots than now you have a guy taking a large number of shots at inefficient rate. Add on the bad defense and i'm just not sure how having DeRozan is an improvement in any sense.
Either way the shit don't make sense bruh.

dont think houston was weak. they actually had the highest playoff NetRtg. i agree they relied on hakeem quite a bit, but for a good reason. dream had one of the greatest peaks in history and the rockets were a decent 3PT shooting team because of it (crowd hakeem and he kicks it out). houston took the most threes that playoffs.
the 95 team was better though, agreed.

maybe, but that's just a hypothetical. they still lost in the semis and don't think they matched up well with houston anyway. for most of the 90s, chicago was dog chow for houston.

Pete Myers averaged 1 point, 1 assist, and 1 rebound per game (1-1-1) during the 1995 playoffs.

Lowery? Are u flicking kidding me? Dude was a joke until kawhi got there. You guys aren't thinking this shit through. Lowery averages 16 points a game in the post season. You act like this is what he would do in 94. Throw him in 94 and Lowery maybe scores 12 pts a game. It was a different era. Point guards weren't looking for their shot as much and they weren't shooting 7 threes a game. Whole teams were barely shooting that. So take away a couple points for the harder scoring era and a couple points for shooting 2 threes a game instead of seven and lowery starts to look alot less impressive.
Klay is a bit different. He also scores less because of the same reasons but he's still a considerably better scorer than kyle. He's also a better defender. He would help the bulls alot more but i still don't think it's enough to beat the Rockets in the finals. Bulls still wouldn't have a guy that can go get his own shot.

The op didn't ask about 95. He asked about 94. Pete myers scored about 7 pts a game on 52% shooting in the 94 playoffs. Imagine thinking lowery or derozan score way more than than 7 pts a game with half as many minutes as they play now and in an era where it was harder to score and where they didn't shoot threes. Y'all are crazy with this shit.

Kyle Lowry would transcend 90s basketball. A bull of a guard with good defense and unlimited range? Teams would be shitting themselves every time Kyle touches the ball with his 3point range. Keep up with the times man. The 90s was the weakest era in sports history, who are you trying to kid? Sorry it won't work on people that know what they're talking about.

Right kyle lowery would be a future teller and know that teams should be shooting 3 times as many threes. Good luck with that theory.
Here's reality. Teams shoot on average 35 threes a game. Lowery shoots 7-8 threes a game thats 20% of his teams threes. Teams on average shot 10 threes a game in 93-94. If lowery shot 20% of his teams threes he'd shoot 2 threes a game. Your an idiot dude.
And the league literally put rules in to male the game easier for players. This isn't even arguable. It's literally a fact. Must be nice living in denial:facepalm

Lol. So DeRozan will be relegated to being a 10ppg scorer in the 90s, but Myers and even more Pippens offensive production will have no impact if they play in DeRozan era? And DeRozan is a 4 time Allstar?
I must say, you guys are the reason we have so many Lebron James trolls running around. I bet if I asked you what MJs numbers would look like you will probably say they'd probably be 38-39ppg on 62% shooting am I right? I cant with you guys lol.
Derozan in the 90s would be what? An ineffiecient 20+ppg scorer? Would that be enough for the Bulls to win it all especially considering his aforementioned inefficiency and shot selection? Lowry would be a worse fit given that they have BJ at that spot already.
Im not even sure if these guys would be perennial allstars in a slow paced, more physical era considering that guys like Ron Harper and Rod Strickland never made it even once and you could argue they were better than both prime for prime.
