Greatest Basketball Team Ever

[sealybobo]

I’m watching 30 for 30 on the Pistons.

Isaiah Thomas, Bill Laimber, Rick Mahorn, John Salley, Vinny Johnson, Joe Dumars, Adrian Dantley, Dennis Rodman

This team finally overcame the Larry Bird Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers. We whipped on Jordan till we got old too.

We could have, should have won 4 championships in a row if it wasn’t for the great Larry Bird. He had a great team too. The greatest white team for sure. Danny Ainge, McCale, Walton, Bird.

I do wonder. But after watching the 30 for 30 on LA vs Celtics I’m not so sure. I think they were too old at that point.

They also pointed out the two times in NBA finals Magic choked. Do you remember that? And worthy choked? And Kareem laid an egg? After watching that 30 for 30 I put the Celtics ahead of the Lakers and MAYBE the Bad Boys. They certainly owned us till we figured it out. They sure got lucky. But they got lucky against LA too. I’m not going to deduct points for being lucky.

What about the year Isaiah hurt his ankle playing the lakers and On one ankle. 25 points in the 3rd quarter. Fandom foul on Kareem? Watch the tape. No foul. Pistons got screwed. Even Worthy basically admitted it.

1987-88 — Los Angeles Lakers def. Detroit Pistons, 4-3

Watch the 30 for 30 on the bad boys. Fandom foul pistons up one put Kareem at the line. No foul!

They say the pistons were basically the best team for four years even though we only won 2 championships.

The Bulls legit beat us but the Celtics and lakers got lucky
