So I'm watching this clip when searching the Bad Boy Pistons and this Jordan rules things come up. Did any1 else in basketball history face more physical defense than Michael Jordan or is their some1 else? I kept thinking that if Kobe had to play the bad boys he wuld be on a plane back to Italy the next morning. Kobe couldn't handle the Celtics defense and I couldn't imagine what the bad boys would do to him. Only players like MJ, Bird, Moses Malone, and Isaiah could take beatings like that!

Paul Pierce would have done better vs this Pistons team than Kobe Bryant. Kobe's finesse game wouldn't get it done!

Kobe was once pushed down to the ground by Raja Bell and he didn't drive to the hoop for the rest of the series!

Paul Pierce got stabbed 9................ you already know the story

It is having to overcome defensive plays like this that forced the best to become better.



I think the NBA did a disservice to their top players and fans by making things so much easier for them.

what ironic is how the detroit team now is built the exact same way.
