Kenny “Jordan hit 13 field goals. His teammates combined to add 15 more for a season-low 28. The Bulls scored a season-low 74 points, a total four points above the all-time playoff low. They hit 2 of 19 three-point attempts and 31 percent of their shots overall, the kind of day that could lead one to suicide. The Bulls probably would have botched that, too. Horace Grant, wild on the backboards again with a team-high 14 rebounds, hit 3 of 17 shots. And Scottie Pippen, struck by a piercing migraine headache just before gametime, hit 1 of 10 shots and scored just two points. ''I was not able to give the effort I could, but I hope my teammates understand,'' said Pippen, who also said he experienced double vision. ''I could see my teammates, but I couldn`t tell how far they were from me. I just couldn`t get that normal feeling.'' Neither could John Paxson, who tried his badly sprained ankle before the game but had to sit out, his first non-start of the season. Substitute starter Craig Hodges hit 3 of 13 shots. And some more help for Jordan. He had more this year, just not enough. ''Look at the Bulls,'' said John Salley, with 14 points off the bench to complement Mark Aguirre`s 15 points and 10 rebounds. ''Pippen gets two and Grant doesn`t shoot well and Michael has to carry the load. ''When our (bench) unit comes in, we`re there to offensive rebound, block shots and run the fast break. ''Buddha (James Edwards) is a scorer, (Bill) Laimbeer is there for defensive boards and then we come in and it changes the whole complexion. Vinnie (Johnson) is the scorer, I rebound and block shots. Michael is a great player, but he can`t do it all.'' Detroit went from trailing 27-25 with 7 minutes 51 seconds left in the second quarter to a 46-31 lead with 30 seconds left in the quarter. They shot 82 percent in the quarter to 21 percent for the Bulls. ''We held serve,'' said Daly. Game, set, match. The Bulls hung around a while, getting the Pistons` lead down to 10 after three quarters. But nobody was fooled. Detroit had too many bodies flying into the game while on the Bulls` bench Paxson`s ankle was the size of a grapefruit, Pippen wore a towel wrapped with ice around his head during every timeout and rookie eyes betrayed the tension of the day. ''I`m proud of the season and what we achieved,'' said Jordan, whose 12 third quarter points gave the Bulls what little hope they carried Sunday. ''So I`m going to look at this as a learning experience. ''I think it was more or less the pressure,'' said Jordan. ''Certainly, some guys didn`t play as they were capable, but that happens,'' said Jordan. ''You`ve got to move on and try to see that you can go farther next year.''

Evan E slowed him never stopped him individually his lowest game against them is 18 points on 4/8 shooting 9 assists every play was Jordan pass to Cartwright or Grant for that game they try to score in the post. They were leading and in it for a while and Jordan never tried to take over he kept sticking to the game plan. That wasn’t an elimination game though. Collins got fired after that series kept changing the starting line up all season wasn’t playing the bench and had Jordan playing point guard a lot which is not smart because he is also their main scorer so it’s easier to contain him and them. Them taking Jordan off ball with the triangle was smart it hid him better from the traps because the floor wasn’t spaced then like it is today and had him make quicker decisions before the defense could react. Tex Winters was an offensive genius for that. And the teammates got better and improved game 7 of 1990 they were trash and game 6 of 1989. Jordan wasn’t great but he showed up but made mistakes as well.

Drazen Petrovic one of the only guys in the league who could keep MJ honest.

The GOAT was resilient, didn't give up, and Phil Jackson implemented a new offensive philosophy, the triangle offense, which was getting other team members involved in the offense, so he was no longer the only "player on the ball club that can beat you". It paid off with a 4-game sweep in 1991. The statement him and his team made in 1991: "We're sick and tired of losing to this ball club, so if we're going to get to the finals and win the title, we're going to have to beat the Detroit Pistons." They were the standard. And they did, plus 5 more titles in the 1990s. 2 threepeats, and some of the teams the Bulls beat in the 1990s probably would've won a title (Blazers, Suns, Sonics, Jazz) had it not been for MJ and the Chicago Bulls.

Pistons were the team that made Jordan great. Here is why: Towards the end you hear Laimbeer say that Jordan won by passing the ball more. Hence, Jordan was a ballhog and tried to do it all. Ofc Phil Jackson helped him but ultimately it was Jordan himself who changed his game and was able to dominate the 1990's. If MJ didnt change his style he wouldve been less great.

That pistons team had to go through the Celtics and maann was that hard to do! But what were people saying back then about Bird, Ainge, McHale, Johnson and Parish, they were saying they were dirty. They weren't dirty, teams just play very hard then (not that they don't play hard now) but the rules changed to favor offensive players more and now you rarely hear about a team being dirty.

They were great at carrying it out though. They had the right personel at the right time to carry it out and win back to back NBA titles. MJ didn't want to give up control yet at that point, because he wasn't ready to do so. They needed a new offensive philosophy that would be more difficult to defend, and finally got that with Phil Jackson, got closer in 1990, but Pistons had homecourt, and the only way the Bulls win in 1990 was win a game at the Palace and couldn't do it. Not just because of Pippen's migraine im game 7, but game 5 in that kind of series is very pivitol, and Pistons won that one. MJ waited year in and year out patiently, and finally won in 1991.

Not necessarily. We watched teams do similar things to players like Shaq and Giannis. The 2004 Pistons let Shaq score inside, but on defense drew him out toward the 3pt line so the Pistons could score as well. We watched the Celtics clamp down on Giannis every time he drove down the middle. The Jordan rules aren't unique today. What's unique is Jordan changed to be less of a blackhole and trusting his teammates more on offense.

Chuck Daly was the ultimate fire coach, the type you would put in the movies

If the Pistons had not played physical defense against Jordan back then he would probably have 8 rings instead of 6. Going through the Pistons was a learning experience for him and it made him a better team player. From then on he understood that you can't beat a team by yourself.

He just doesn’t, and then to get to those teams, you have to play the rest of the Dream Team’ers and their teams. LeBron never made it the finals with hand check rule, and watch Detroit highlights. They committed real crimes on the floor. Take the BEST 8 years of Lebron, and slap that over the other Greats, that’s a true comparison

Once the lane opened it helped MJ a ton. But let’s not forget if you forced him left, he hit. If you forced him right, he hit. If you held the line and pushed him back , he dropped fade always. So what do you have? MJ, one of a kind.

Rodman forced Jordan into 6 fouls in the 4th quarter of a game in 1989 but why let facts get in the way of your monumental retardation

Jordan shattered those rules in '91 and that team never won again! Swept the Pistons off their home court... the rules only worked for the Detroit their 2 championship years because they had a better team. Once the Bulls became the "Bulls" they won 3 straight twice. Detroit really created the Dominant Greatest Player ever in Micheal Jordan by making him earn it so hard! Amazing stories!

He was still getting zoned while it was supposed to be illegal. Incredible.

Steph Curry could not survive against the Pistons. This was the meat grinder. He's not on MJs level, nobody is.

I am pretty sure that Curry can't shoot that well against defense like this. I have my reason. Check out the stat in recent 5 years of the NBA, average FG% keeps going up. If you compare today's league to 10 years ago, today's league is very very soft. Every stars just like have a boost on their stat especially on offense side nowadays if compare to 5 or 8 years ago. I don't even need to mention 1995-2004, those years were very tough on defense.

Curry is probably the greatest shooter I've ever seen, but yes Jordan was a better all around guard.

Watching the series in '91 over and over it becomes obvious that the Pistons, like Jordan, have changed their tactics, but unlike Jordan, not to an advantage. The Pistons were also obviously getting older, but the lack of tenacity against the Bulls has always puzzled me. I've listened to a few players talk about the change of rules in the league that would allow players like Jordan to sweep the lane. Tell me, if you can't physically stop a guy from coming up the lane, what the hell is the point of having players on the court! The loss of Mahorn and the changing of some league rules undid the Pistons.

Lol “obviously getting older”. We all get older. It’s a lame and false argument. They were In their late 20’s and early 30’s.

Over the years since posting this video that I produced and edited in 2014, I have watched 1500+ comments in the thread and over 500k+ views. Some comments are just random rants and others are scientific analyses by people that really know the game. Yesterday, I had a comment come into my mind as to why MJ is the greatest player to ever play the game and I wanted to share it. Here it is: No one will ever be better than Michael Jordan not because of skill, but because the league will never be better than Michael Jordan. In his era ‘Michael Jordan’ became ‘the league’ and ‘the league’ became ‘Michael Jordan’. They mutually reached the top of their game at the same time. Sponsorship was just coming of age, players were just starting to get paid big money, and yet the heart of the sport was still intact with greed only waiting in the wings. You still had to earn your rank. You still had to fight your way to the top physically and you couldn't run off with a million in sponsorship dollars on your first year. Sports have declined greatly since then and players by in large have sold out. The NBA, NFL, and the MBL are now just games played on a stage of money. Players get deals before they even hit the court and the dollar has usurped the heart of the game long ago. So the answer to the question of "why no one could beat MJ" is not because of skill, but because no one can compete with the era and the trajectory of growth both he and the league went through at that time while still maintaining the heart of the game. Painfully, I seldom watch a modern game with the charade of politics, money, fame, and fortune that surround the now circus of players.

I think one of the Main objectives was not to contain Mj points wise. But to shut down his playmaking and frustrate him to turn him into a ballhog

The Celtics did the same thing with Wilt.

Why Bulls were able to overcome the Bad Boys (in my opinion): 1. The emergence of Scottie Pippen as a superstar (this somehow does not get talked about enough) 2. Age caught up to the Pistons 3. Triangle Offense (ball/player movement got teammates involved; also made it tougher to double MJ) 4. Rule changes 5. It was Bulls' time (much like it was The Pistons' time when they finally overcame the Celtics)

Points 1, 2 and 4 are not true. Pippen was never a superstar until he peaked out in the mid 90s. He was only selected into All-NBA First Teams three times in his whole career and he wasn't even selected as an All-Star at 97-98, the year they won their last championship. Even at '94 with MJ, Thomas, Bird, Magic out of the picture and with guys like D.Wilkins, Barkley, Price on the decline due to injuries, Pippen was probably only the 5th or 6th best player in the league. Olajuwon, Shaq, Robinson, Malone, Ewing were clearly better at 1994 and Barkley was arguably better as well even though he was on the decline. Most of these players were still better players than Pippen even during the next few seasons down the line. Jordan's teammates finally stepped up for the first 6 games of the 1990 ECF against the eventual 1990 champion Pistons (number 1 defense), and the series was tied 3-3 - In Game 7, Jordan put up 31-9-8 on 48%, and also held Isiah Thomas to 41% shooting. Jordan also went up against DPOY Rodman, who can actually guard 1-5, in this series as well as Dumars - However the rest of Jordan's teammates played garbage in Game 7. The only teammate of Jordan's in double figures was Horace Grant with 10 pts on 3-17 (18%) shooting. Pippen finished with 2 pts 4 rebs 2 ast on 1-10 shooting - Dennis Rodman actually outscored every teammate of Jordan's, and did it more efficiently with 13 pts on 6-7 shooting. - While Jordan shot 48%, no other notable teammate (benchwarmers in garbage time don't count) shot better than 33.3%. 1) Even with home court advantage, Larry Bird's Celtics lost to Patrick Ewing's Knicks in the first round. Jordan's Bulls never lost to Patrick Ewing's Knicks in 5 playoff meetings, even with a 6 seed Bulls team in 1989. For those claiming that this Celtics team was washed up, Bird was 1 rpg and 1 apg shy of a triple double, and McHale, Parish, and Lewis all played very well offensively. This wasn't the same Celtics team of the 80s. but they were still expected to beat the Knicks. 2) Magic Johnson and Kareem lost to a 40-42 Rockets team in the first round of the playoffs after winning the championship in 1980. Larry Bird's first championship came against that same 40-42 Rockets team. Jordan never lost a series with home court advantage like Bird, Magic, and Kareem did, and never lost to a team lower than a number 2 seed like Bird, Magic, and Kareem also did. 3) The 80s Lakers never beat a team with a great center. Parish is only in the Hall of Fame because of Bird - he never made the playoffs in a season without Bird unless he was playing under 20 mpg off the bench. The 80s Lakers lost to Moses twice (1981 and 1983), and against Hakeem (1986), going a combined 2-10 in playoff games against them. These were the only times the 80s Lakers played a top 10 all-time center in a playoff series. 4) Larry Bird in 1983 got swept by Sidney Moncrief and Paul Pressey's Bucks in the second round. That was even when Bird had a stacked lineup up of Robert Parish, Finals MVP Cedric Maxwell, and Kevin McHale. As a rookie, Jordan had an 8 seed Bulls team of Orlando Woolridge and Quintin Dailey as his best options. He still managed to win one game against Moncrief and Pressey's Bucks in the first round even though Bird had the much, much more stacked team. 5) In 1990, Magic Johnson's Lakers had a top 7 defense and offense and the best record in the league. Magic also won MVP that year. Even then, Magic lost to a 5 seed Suns team led by Kevin Johnson and no Charles Barkley in only 5 games. Jordan ended up beating a Suns team with Kevin Johnson as well as the MVP Charles Barkley in the 1993 Finals.Every single team that Jordan lost to in the playoffs after his rookie year made the NBA Finals, something you can't say about the 1983 Bucks, 1990 Suns, or 1990 Knicks.6) Larry Bird and Magic Johnson never swept the Bad Boy Pistons, which Jordan did in 1991. Not only that, but Bird and Magic never played the Pistons when they had the number 1 defense in the league, nor when Dennis Rodman won DPOY like the Pistons did in 1991. 7) Magic Johnson could not even win one game against the 1989 Pistons in the NBA Finals before his injury, even after his team went 11-0 in the Western Conference. Jordan's 6 seed Bulls were the only team that won a game against the 1989 Pistons, which they did twice Detroit Pistons (Back to back NBA Champs with the number 1 defense in the league) - The 91 Pistons had the number 1 defense in the league, and Dennis Rodman was DPOY for the second year in a row. - Isiah's injury is not an excuse, because Isiah already played almost 50 games in the season and had played through injuries before, such as the 1989 Finals. Isiah also averaged almost 12 apg in the first round of the playoffs this year against Dominique Wilkins' Hawks. - and if you are going to use Isiah's injury as an excuse, Jordan must be given extra credit for winning with an injured Toni Kukoc (1996 ECSF), Ron Harper (1996 Finals) and Scottie Pippen (1997/98 season and 1998 Finals)- This Pistons team was still good enough to sweep the Celtics with Reggie Lewis and McHale playing very well - People claim this team was weakened by the flagrant foul rule, but they ended up with the number 1 defense in the league for the second year in a row and with Rodman winning DPOY again, even after the introduction of that rule. Clearly the myth that the introduction of this rule hurt the Pistons is far from true. The Pistons actually allowed less PPG in 1990/91 than they did in 1989/90. - For those who still doubt the 1991 Pistons defense, they shut down Dominique Wilkins to 21 ppg on 37% after 26 ppg on 47% in the regular season in the first round of the playoffs. Joe Dumars was 27 years old, Rodman was 29 years old so was Thomas. John Salley was 26 years old. They were far from being an old team when their 3 of their key players were in their primes and under 30 years of age. Los Angeles Lakers - The Lakers were still a great team, and they were not washed up like people think, though not as great as the 80s Lakers. - Former Finals MVP James Worthy was playing with an ankle injury, but he still put up 19-3-2 on 48%, which was not far off from his playoff and season averages. Considering he was doing that against a top defense like the Bulls, it shows no indication that he wasn't playing well. By the time Worthy missed Game 5, the series was already over with the Bulls up 3-1 - James Worthy broke his leg and missed all of the 1983 playoffs, but nobody tries to discredit Moses Malone's 1983 victory over the Lakers in the Finals. - The Lakers didnt have Kareem, but Kareem was a minor contributor on the 1988 and 1989 Lakers team. They were still a great team even with Kareem having a minimal impact. - Vlade Divac in the 1991 Finals played much, much better than a faded Kareem did in in the 1988 and 1989 Finals. He was more than enough to offset the loss of a fading 88-89 Kareem (not a prime Kareem obviously) - Kareem 1988 Finals - 13-4-1 on 41%, 0.6 spg, 1 bpg - Kareem 1989 Finals - 12.5-5-2 on 44%, 0.5 spg, 1 bpg - Kareem 1982 Finals - 18-8-4 on 53%, 1.3 spg, 3.2 bpg - Divac 1991 Finals - 18-9-2 on 57%, 1.8 spg, 2.4 bpg Divac in 1991 actually played at practically the same level that Kareem did for the 1982 Finals - This is the same Vlade Divac who was a key piece of the Kings that nearly ended the 2000-02 Lakers 3peat chances. Somehow only in Jordan's era is he considered part of a weak team - Magic Johnson averaged 12.5 apg in the NBA Finals and regular season. Since then, no player outside of John Stockton has matched those numbers in the regular season, and Stockton never reached that assist output after the 1993/94 season. - and no player besides Magic Johnson has ever reached 12 apg in the NBA Finals - No player since 1991 has even reached 10 apg in the Finals, and no player in the 2000s has reached 12 apg in a season. - Magic had averaged a triple double in the 1991 WCSF against the Warriors, dropping 26-10-13. - If Magic Johnson was washed up at this point, then that only shows how vastly superior Jordan's era was compared to the 2000s, since a "washed up" Magic Johnson was a far better distributor and all-around player than any PG of the 2000s. - This Lakers team beat the same Blazers team in 1991 that the Pistons had to beat in 1990 to win the championship, so they were far from washed up.- When the Pistons beat the Lakers in 1989, Magic Johnson played a combined 5 minutes in the last 2 games of the Finals due to injury. Yet people try to discredit the Bulls' 1991 championship?

Single joint hits like elbows, knees, little kicks and punches here and there in the middle of chaos were their secret. But multiple joint grabbing, pushing to the ground, or multiple teaming like holding from the waist while someone else jumped and sat on his neck were "obvious" stuff, no secret here. In short, large teamwork to create chaos in the paint is non-secret, all the dirty little moves you do inside the chaos is secret. Possible conversations in the locker room like "Imma break his leg again," "first let's try kicking his nuts harder" are secrets too.

It explained in great detail and accuracy what the "Jordan Rules" were, and they were far more complex and skillful than just knocking him on his ass, as most young punks were taught to believe. Overall, very fair, very in-depth, very educational, and very coherent and well thought-out. Oh, and very objective, a drastic change from the norm. How is that for an answer?

I truly loved watching, studying Basketball in that era.

The Pistons were only “dirty” to mentally weak wastes of life like you

The Pistons (And Phil Jackson) got Michael to realize that he was not going to win an NBA championship by himself. The Pistons taught him that he had to get physically tougher which is why he started weight training for the first time in his life after the series and he learned that he had to start trusting teammates more. Kobe tried to do the same thing and he realized he couldn't do it on his own after shack left and at the organization to go get some stars cuz he needed help and he knew it and then in come Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol.

“We re all go with him” danm Anyone old superstars playing on this modern girlie NBA era could have easily win a lot more rings

Chuck Daly got tired of Jordan scoring "astro points", and came up with "the Jordan Rules".

07:39 .. that little hidden punch by Rodman..There are so many of those little hidden dirty plays involved it's unreal :). I like it though. Is it they way basketball was meant to be played? Propably not but I love the gritty and dirty style and how they gave everything in order to win. I remember in the Pistons 30 for 30 documentary one of the guys saying "I'd give my left leg and my unborn son's left leg for this ring." A little extreme? Yes, maybe. But imagine going to the hole against a guy like that in comparison to let's say a Roy Hibbert. Those are the differences I think that count the most..not those statistics they bring up all the time.

No matter what they tried to do to the GOAT with their nasty game , they couldn't contain MJ instead he is a world phenom and an icon with six championship Rings!!! At the end they made a better Man and player out of him!!

Man these were the days!

To say that the Bad Boys Detroit is not a good team does not know the NBA. To say that Zeke does not deserve to be in the Dream Team does not know the game or they really hate him. There were only 2 popular point guards in the 80s nor just because of their styles but because they really were above all else. If Magic was not 6'9", Zeke would have been the best point guard in the 80s.
