Okay, you didn’t answer any of the questions.  If you are such a historian on Jordam era NBA then how come you never made any posts about it.  I’ve seen plenty of expert Kobe era posts, but I’ve never seen you write with that kind of passion about 90’s NBA.  Kobe did come into the league in the second half of the 90’s, but what about pre-Kobe NBA.  Have you ever made a single post about pre-Kobe NBA that didn’t have Kobe’s name in it somewhere? 

What about the Bad Boy Pistons did you ever post about them.  I got dozens of posts.


ficca please

i have plenty of posts about jordan, pistons, showtime lakers etc. all throughout these forums

i literally have a library of books and videos on 80s and 90s era NBA .. shall i share some?

use the search function if your memory is failing u

its ok .. you're just a casual who loved jordan in the 90s like the rest of the world

but i dont claim to be a bigger baseball enthusiast than u .. give me the same respect when it comes to my speciality homie

I remember the Bad Boy Pistons…the Knicks teams of the early 90’s played a similar type of ball only not as well

I really started to follow the NBA during the 90’s when the Knicks had great teams but always came up short to the Bulls…except in ‘94 during Jordan wasn’t playing…we made the finals and lost in 7 to the Rockets…John Starks was like 2-17 from the floor…good times LOL

pat riley completely switched his style up to make that knicks team work .. they simply didn't have the talent that the bad boys pistons did

Riley was a great coach…yeah this wasn’t the Showtime Lakers but the style of play was pretty effective

one of my favorite players was Xavier McDaniel…He was past his prime when he joined us but he completely got into Pippens head and intimidated him by playing him super physically

x-man was solid .. didn't quite live up to the hype but he had a strong career as an enforcer type role player

X-Man tried to muscle up on Jordan back in the day, and Jordan showed him who the Alpha dog was.  Playing the Knicks was like going to a gang fight in the back alley.  Pistons may have been the Bad Boys but they looked like basketball players.  The Knicks looked like a football team.

unfortunately we only had him for that 1 season in '91-92 and then he went to Boston the following year

but yeah that style of play is what I grew up on
