No defense compares to the Larry Brown Pistons. Not the Bulls much less Minnesota!
No. That's too important of a call to not call.
These MJ lover boys are special.
oh please, most players and teams were trash in the 80s and 90s. Most players couldn’t handle or shoot like players do today. It was much easier to D. There is a reason why MJ and Pippen couldn’t D Abdul Rauf.
even the 2008 celtics have the same tencity, they have rond, tony allen, posey, kg, etc
Shane Battier has entered the chat 😂 Overall I’m just happy to see a time actually embrace defense as a whole. The playoffs always restore order to the league.
Why does everything for these guys has to be compared to Jordan for these old heads ???
The 1996 Bulls were a fantastic team, but they weren't even the best team out of the six championship teams (1991 was best).
But when it comes to best defences of the last 30yrs?
The collective Detroit Pistons from the 2004 and 2005 NBA Finals are saying
"…..yeah, hold my beer…."
Can't be salty with Wilbon's assessment, he is a "homer" for Chicago.
…and a Hater for the 1980s Pistons, and the back to back Finals Detroit Pistons of 2004 and 2005.
when was the last time u bought a ticket to watch a team play defense? thats how good this defense is.
Why the heck does the media always need to exaggerate and create shock headlines for clicks?
Finally a team that can bully the Nuggets. They kept saying Porter, Gordon, Joker was too tall…Gobert, Kat, MJ can match them easily lol Wolves in 4
There's a chance Wolves may stay undefeated all the way to the finals vs Boston and beat Celtics 4-0 and get the ring!
I wish your was this outraged when Embid pulled down Robinson when he was in the air with no flagrant 2 foul and being suspended from the next game. Wow…. smh
Forgetting Detroit piston med 20s
Why are we talking dynasty when we talking about the Nuggets?
Stop it. ‘04 Pistons were better.
Losing faith when the are down 2-0 with home court…thanks Frank..hot take
Look man I’m 40 I get all the Jordan love but Jesus Christ they have to bring everything back to Jordan there’s so many teams that have played great defense since then I know everyone is saying the pistons so did the kg Celtics pacers the heat there’s been so many examples you didn’t have to go all the way back to Jordan
A break from the annoying Kornheiser….much appreciated (fan of Frank, too)
Have you watched Warriors during their peak?
Denver cant handle physicality. Lakers in the bubble did the same thing
Wilbon sucking Jordan hard with that take. All diddy.
How did he skip pass 04 piston
Wilbon trashh 😅ld head. Just leave. Horrible takes
Jimmy was crossing the line but he has never called himself Playoff Jimmy that was the media. But Pat "THE GODFATHER" Riley spoke facts JUST SHUT UP! THE GODFATHER HAS SPOKEN EVERYBODY SHUT UP
Ney the Nuggets will be fine… they will go to Dallas for 2 games and will be heading straight to Bahama for vacation 😅😅
We get it, you from Chicago LOL
… got swept anyone?
bet everyone on espn are loving seeing the nuggets lose with them all being laker fans
Hi
The warriors had a better defence. Stop with the hyperbole
