Its too bad they got sandwiched between those Boston teams in the 80s and the Chicago teams in the 90s, though.

It is too bad, because those Pistons are probably embody the word "teamwork" better than any other championship team in the modern era.

This anon hits it right on the head. 80s Lakers/Celtics/Pistons were all teams in the purest sense of the word. Where Magic/Bird/Thomas may beat you one night each had a multitude of other players who could take over a game the next.

90s Bulls were perhaps the best ever, but there was a massive talent drop after Jordan and Pippen. Now the league is set up for one guy to score and the rest of the team not to lose. The only teams I see that really aren't in the that mold are the Spurs, Celtics, and Pistons (balanced up and down even with the I in Iverson).

The talent dropoff was huge? lol

Thanks captain obvious, Jordan and Pippen were 2 of the best players in NBA history.

Sure there were dropoffs, we had Dickey Simkins for christs sake, but to deny the talent of guys like Rodman and Kerr is just outright stupidity.

1995-1996 Bulls best NBA team ever, 72-10 kthx.

How Dumars took a great Pistons team and made it into one that missed the playoffs last year I'll never understand.
>> Anonymous
>>481360
I lol'd. Since when did the Pistons miss the playoffs? Oh wait, they haven't. And now that they Have AI they're twice the team they were with Billups. I'd say Dumars is doing a pretty decent job.

He did draft Darko ahead of Wade, Carmelo and Bosh. And then there's failing in the conference finals over and over again.
>> Anonymous
>>481401
Yeah, and since he drafted Darko instead of them both. He has more Conference finals than all 3 superstars combined, and just as many championships as all 3 combined. I don't want Wade anyway, Bosh or 'Melo would be nice. But I think AI is better than any of them.
