    It was more about enforcing team rules. Under Riley they had a rule you didn’t hang out with the opposing team before and after games. Ewing for ex wasn’t even allowed to hang out with Zo or Mutombo. But when Don Nelson took over it went away and JVG being from Riley coaching tree put the rule back in. It’s not a good look with your teammates that have to guard MJ if Ewing or Oak are out partying with MJ until 24 in the morning. JVG just made the mistake about talking about MJ to the press.

    SO many young people don't understand how different MJ really was compared to who they think is the GOAT. MJ dropped 50 with all midranges, free throws, and driving to the rim with insane layup packages and most teams barely scored 100 in a tough defensive era. Now you see two sometimes 3 players drop 30 after hitting 5-7 threes just flinging them up while the final scores are above 120 or more. Now the top ten scores are above 28 points a game. with 7 people averaging 30 a game. It's just soo different! MJ was ALWAYS the best player on the floor, no matter what point of the season or game was playing. I don't think we'll every have that experience again.

    You literally just explained how more efficient and better players are in today’s league, which makes it harder to standout and get scoring records, points leader etc Derozan is today’s Michael Jordan. Worst part, MJ is known to score. Less efficient and less points than Lebron. On top of less assists, rebounds, blocks, finals & playoff scoring. People get better overtime.

    @@Dalex3I think what he’s saying is the league believes high scores and crazy stats are entertaining so defense has been reduced to near extinction. The games were lower scoring because it was harder to score back then. When someone was scoring 30 or 40 on your team it was embarrassing to your defense. Now it’s embarrassing not to score 30 or 40, because defense is an afterthought. See the difference?

    The fact that there's a whole generation who never got to see MJ play is crazy to me. I remember his 1st gm. Before the hype. I'm watching this 1 player literally guard 5 different guys on 1 play and end up blocking the shot from behind. I was like this guy is cat-quick. I noticed his defense even though he was often the Bulls high scorer of the game. As his popularity grew I felt like a man whose girlfriend became famous and left him for a movie star. He was no longer a rookie with potential. MJ took the sport to another level.

    I remember the games of the Knicks against the Bulls back in the 90s. I was a Ewing/Knicks fan, sitting in a bar with all my Bulls/MJ fans buddies. I can honestly say that I never saw any Knicks players taking it easy on MJ. I never even got that feeling. I saw the Knicks doing everything they could to try and slow down MJ, including hard fouls, but nothing worked. I don't believe MJ would have been friends with Oakley or Ewing if they didn't go all out against him. If they ever held back on MJ, he would be pissed. MJ respected them for never going easy on him. I was never an MJ fan, always liked Bird and Ewing, but you can't ever downplay MJ's greatness.

    I've lived in Chicago my entire life I'm 44 now so I've seen almost every game Jordan ever played live. I think Van Gundy did this to try and put his players into a different mindset because he knew like pretty much everyone knew that the Knicks faced an impossible opponent in the Bulls. He should have said it privately in the locker room and not through the media. Jordan is easily the best player ever and pissing him off just makes it worse for you.

I remember seeing him play away games and the other fans loved him. He really was likable to everyone, because he knew how to be a friend. These punks now-a-days that people claim to be a GOAT are arrogant.

    a large part of the reason why Jordan is the goat is that he has that mystique and lore about him, so many MJ moments that players attest to.

I think he's a very good player, pippen 2.0 with scoring , certainly fraternize more than jordan, as friendly superteam camaraderie building dude, but not legendary goat status, in a sense both Space Jam movies highlight who they are and how they play, Lebrons sonning the league and constructing his team of bros and Jordan take his misfits, get tehm believing and go conquer the monstars
