@@leventehorvath709 run faster jump higher??? I don't think so, it's the game speed that is faster, but not necessarily the players. Same for jumps, and as far as muscles are concerned, I don't agree at all, it's the same or even more muscular in the 90's 00's. Today they take shots faster, they run more, but not necessarily faster.
Pippen and Harper wear Air Jordan 12s like MJ, that's respect! I've never seen other teammates wearing the sneakers of one of theirs!! Harper does it often and so does Pippen
lol ppl crazy to say the sonics and jazz were weak competition for the bulls... you can clearly see how the bulls are struggling with match ups against the sonics
Gary Payton in his prime was arguably the most underrated players ever. Legitimately a top 15 player of all-time. I'm a Bulls fan, but those Sonics teams were incredibly fun to watch, and in my opinion, the biggest challenge the Bulls ever faced in the Finals. Bulls were lucky to get a 3-0 lead on them, otherwise things could have gone differently.
@@chrisuncleahmad I'll never know what Seattle was thinking overpaying a talentless hack like Jim McIlvane who on his best day was nothing more than a 1 trick pony who could block a few shots and do nothing else of value while he was on the floor.
@@chrisuncleahmad oh, c'mon. It was not about McElvain. They got Cummings, a serious PF everybody was waiting to become even more serious throughout his career. It was a delibetate move to get rid of Kemp. And the Sonics management would do it anyway. They choked Kemp on the boards (2 at halftime) with those 2 bigs and Garry had 14 rebs. Orlando also thought Shaq was demanding too much and they would do pefectly well without him.
Half the Bulls wearing 12's...even Scottie (though he's the only one wearing cherry's, the rest are wearing taxi's). Longley, Wennington, MJ, Scottie, and Harper
22:53 seems like the start of the politics of the business! Why would longley foul? Why wouldn’t MJ try and score the next play? OT means more money for TV!
OT. 2 major players fouled out. Another one had 8 turnovers and career high rebs repeat. The fouth one with mindblowing stats for a guard. Multiple 3pts in th end. Are you sure we watched the same game?
You mean it's not a great game because they aren't letting each other chuck threes and drive to the basket uncontested and padding the score artificially?
This is what basketball looks like with elite effort on both sides of the court. LeFans know nothing of what real b-ball is. You think matador defense with massive spacing so that the scorer has all the advantages is real bball? You only saw today’s version of b-ball in exhibition level b-ball back in the day. Now exhibition b-ball is NBA b-ball. Did you notice the boxing out in this video? The postup game? The midrange game? The lock down defense you had to score through? This was a true sport once. Adam silver himself acknowledged that players today would not be on the level of what they are now, if they played back then. He specifically mentioned Curry as that defense would have stifled his ability to do what he does today. Those are facts. So imagine these real warriors from the Bulls and Sonics playing today with the matador defense, the massive spacing, offensive player can’t be touched, allowed to walk, carry and offensive foul your way to an empty cup for easy scores? A lot of yall truly have messed up Comprehension skills. If you can look at this game an not see superior version of b-ball compared to the soft, exhibition watered down game of today, I don’t know what else will open your eyes. To be able to score 25-50 pts or more in that past era, you truly had to be elite. Today, any chump off the bench can score 30-70. It’s that easy. For contrast, just look how clogged the paint was back then. Look how little spacing they had to score even on the perimeter. It forced them to develop real elite skills, unlike today, where this eras so-called greatest didn’t have to develop any skills other than elbow smashes, shoulder bashes, hip checks, barreling over players etc. He was never forced to actually develop b-ball skills. Pressure makes diamonds, coddling produces narcissistic, entitled pseudo greats. Stern & Silver removed the essentials that created true greats. Ratings prove this era is overrated propaganda.
That NBA on TNT music taking me straight back to my childhood 🥲
Right, me too! As well as the NBA on NBC theme music. I so miss the 90s!
@@JWNS08 same! I'm just glad we had the privilege of living through it and experiencing it in real time
@@moonwalker1298 Cheers! 🍻
I was in highschool on my way out
We didn't know what we had till it was gone 😢 glad i grew up in that era. 80s 90s and early 2000s ❤please take us back 🙏
RIP to Craig Sager.
Overtime and still both teams were under 90! What a game
Athletes are actually sweating too. NBA sucks now.
Today they jump higher, run faster, have bigger muscle and shoot 3 pts much better, but they have much lower bball iq

@@user-dk8bf3us1w🎯
All they do Now is shoot 3s..the rest of that you're wrong
Thank you. Miss my Sonics.
👍
I’m a Knick fan but I can’t wait for the possible return of that franchise and the records it will be able to recover from the OKC Thunder.
Prime Kemp is a beast!
He should be I. The hall of fame especially considering who they put in there
Pippen and Harper wear Air Jordan 12s like MJ, that's respect! I've never seen other teammates wearing the sneakers of one of theirs!! Harper does it often and so does Pippen
So Dose Luc Longley
Damn near the whole team😂😂.. it was different back then, now everybody have contracts to prevent wearing other player shoes
That's completely something different than what they play these days.
lol ppl crazy to say the sonics and jazz were weak competition for the bulls... you can clearly see how the bulls are struggling with match ups against the sonics
Yes! Definitely this is such a great game! Thank you!
👍
19:20 MJ still doesn’t have a left I guess 😆😆🤣🤣
Great game indeed! Lob city vs Pippen & Jordan

When Doc Rivers had a real voice!
Final months of the Kemp era in Seattle.
all because they overpaid Jim McElvaine instead of giving Kemp the money he had EARNED from that 96 playoff run and Finals performance
@@chrisuncleahmad I'll never know what Seattle was thinking overpaying a talentless hack like Jim McIlvane who on his best day was nothing more than a 1 trick pony who could block a few shots and do nothing else of value while he was on the floor.
@@chrisuncleahmad that unbelievably stupid move was pretty much the beginning of the end for Seattle's championship window.
@@chrisuncleahmadYeah they screwed that up big time
@@chrisuncleahmad oh, c'mon. It was not about McElvain. They got Cummings, a serious PF everybody was waiting to become even more serious throughout his career. It was a delibetate move to get rid of Kemp. And the Sonics management would do it anyway.

87-89 is now the score after 2 quarters 😂
Occasionally, and often after 3
Lol yep and hard to watch
As a team going 18-51 usually ..NBA unwatchable today ...Zero defense jacking up 3 after 3.
not a good thing..only good when 1 or 2 teams play like it, now everyone does
No defense being played it’s a layup line and a open 3 point contest
Jordan always handled himself well when being interviewed.
Definitely a great game!
Good Ol Days
Great video. Thanks
👍
Keep em coming!!! @@MDBBall

Luuucccc!!!

Payton And Kemp Vs Jordan And Scottie In Chicago
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 WHAT IS THIS
Jim...... McIlvaine.
What was Seattle thinking?
Ridiculous....🤦🏾♂️
Larry... Stewart...?
Facts! Should have paid kemp! Seattle should have ran the west in the mid 90’s to 00’s. We would have got sonics vs bulls 3 straight finals

Майкл научит всех как играть в баскетбол! 🎉❤❤❤! Потому что он всегда лучший!
Sonics horrific rebounding cost them in the 90's... imagine if they got rodman instead of maccvin..they would of won at least 2 tittles
Jordan was genuinely modest!
Great game for sure Kemp and Payton, Jordan and Rodman
Jordan the GOAT allways team mind
19:23 20:29 MJ really didn't have problems with the Glove
GPs stat-line was more impressive in this game. If Jordan didn't have a problem with GP, then GP didn't have a problem with Jordan.
1996 NBA Finals rematch
9:55 Roaring like Vince Carter as he slams it down.
Fun fact: 4 of the 5 Bulls starters wore the Air Jordan 12 😎
Rodman was a straight beast
is this the game jordan was talking bout?😂😂
9:54
“Goodness.”
Wow, Cummings had certainly lost something by then. How many times was he rejected?
MJ always giving his teammates credit and praise unlike some so-called fake King 👑
ofc jordan gets a bs call in his favor that decides the game.
mj goat
sonics were very good too. just m j. was really good too. any other team the sonics would have won title
22:53 seems like the start of the politics of the business! Why would longley foul? Why wouldn’t MJ try and score the next play? OT means more money for TV!
That last foul call on the Sonics was terrible. The refs helping the Bulls as usual. It's part of the script.
Michael Jordan got too many touch fouls in his favor.
Not a great game but certainly a close one.
OT. 2 major players fouled out. Another one had 8 turnovers and career high rebs repeat. The fouth one with mindblowing stats for a guard. Multiple 3pts in th end.
Are you sure we watched the same game?
You mean it's not a great game because they aren't letting each other chuck threes and drive to the basket uncontested and padding the score artificially?
Mj is a basic basketball player i don't see much athletism
Score please..fuck...
Bulls really were overated
Haters gonna hate...

@@adamstuhlman2206 He's just mad Jordan hit the 2 clutch free throws and lechoke would have bricked them.
That post was uneducated
why are they going with MJ's pick in 3points, it's just like Westbrook in shooting today.the 80s 90s were all garbage
Lebron James is by far the NBA GOAT
BRO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 GOAT JAMES IS NOTHING TO TALK ABOIT
Jordan and LeBron played in different eras, so to say who’s better is really a guess.
