[QUOTE=Hey Yo;14579878]When your opponent only scores 54 total points in a game.... players on both sides are going to play less minutes.
Thanks for the lesson Retardo Montalban[/QUOTE]
I've told him that. He simply ignores it. I've sent him videos of every play where Rodman was on Malone in the 98 Finals and he doesn't care. He doesn't care about facts lol. Rodman shut down Malone.
Definitely an upgrade from Myers.
Wouldn't trust Demar in big games though. Especially in an era with rules tougher for perimeter players.
If Chicago got by New York and Indiana, I don't believe they would beat the Rockets. With Jordan, the Bulls struggled verse Houston every year... Without him? Good luck.
[QUOTE=imdaman99;13997266]This is the hard-nosed Knicks defense we're talking about, Derozan would be a net negative.
The Bulls get worse in the playoffs against good teams with Derozan than without him, I have no doubt about it.[/QUOTE]
Have to agree with myself here lol. Thought Derozan turned a corner this year with all the clutch shots he hit......... but 1st game playoffs and he is back being a net negative. I think I stand firm that they lose in 5 instead of 7 with Derozan instead of an average joe.

Lol. Only Jordan fans would think a more talented player would be a net negative. A guy who's a better passer, similar defensively, a better rebounder, on top of being a much better scorer would be a net negative. Especially when Myers and Derozan basically play the same position.
DeRozan already had 60-win teams in Toronto and did nothing
Now he has 2 perennial all-star teammates on the Bulls and is about to get swept in 1st Round

Instant chip in 94 with Demar over Jordan

Yes, easily.

The 92' and 93' Bulls had Jordan on the team but still barely beat the Knicks, so they would lose with Derozan:

People forget that Kukoc's miracle shot saved the 94' Bulls from getting swept.
The 1993-94 Bulls win a championship without DeRozan if they didn't get screwed:

Or at least they make it to the finals, where they might've lost to Hakeem like they lost all 6 of their regular season meetings in their first 3-peat with Foolish jordon on the roster.

The Great Scott Pippen clearly not fouling Hubert Davis seen here:

Hubert Davis himself specified that it was a payback call for the non-call on Charles Smith the previous playoffs with this statement:
[QUOTE]"We felt like Charles Smith got fouled a year before. Maybe things evened out."[/QUOTE]

Such were the perks that came with having David Stern's darling Foolish jordon on your roster.
Fun fact, that crap call against the 93-94 Bulls was named the 7th worst sports call ever by ESPN.com in 2001:
[URL="https://www.espn.com/page2/s/list/readers/worstcalls.html"]https://www.espn.com/page2/s/list/readers/worstcalls.html[/URL]
There is only one basketball call ranked higher (1972 Olympics ranked at #4), so that call 94 call on The Great Scott Pippen was basically seen as the worst call in NBA history in 2001.
