Problems with the pistons for 70 campaign. No singular personality like jordans to "will" the team to victory. Yeah they play hard and Chauncey is a good clutch player but he isnt exactly MJ. 2. Nowhere close defensively. The bulls were better at every position but the 5 defensively. Scottie pippen is the only guy who I have ever seen make playing defense look like an art form. The best defensive swingman in nba history. Any young athletic swing man should be force fed film of him. Dennis Rodman. One of the most underrated players of recent years. That team was awesome. Almost a perfect basketball team. Also they were HUGE favorite going into the year and everyone knew they were gonna win the ring. There was no team they had to worry about staying fresh to play in the playoffs and there are at least 2 teams capable of beating detroit in the playoffs so they dont have that luxury. Last difference between the two and though i have already said it, simply put, Michael Jordan.
