Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

Re: Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

Contrary to popular belief Scottie Pippen is 6'8 not 6'7. Pippen was listed as 6'7 for his entire career except his last season(when he returned to the Bulls).

For proof of this:

I have a feeling 2K will get this wrong but I won't be mad.

i'd rather they put him at 6'7 only because i always have the announcer doing the starting lineups in my head mentioning him at 6'7.

I can never forget the Bulls starting lineups

At forward from Central Arkansas, six SEVen, Scottttiiieee Pippen!
A 6'8 forward out of South East OOOklahoma State, Dennissss Rodman!
The man in the middle, from New Mexico, 7'2, Luc Longley!
A 6-6 guard from Miami ohio, Ron Harper!
From North Carolina, at guard, 6-6, MICHAEL JORDAN!

best intro ever

i'd be really impressed if they have Rodman's hair color change throughout the year if you use the Bulls in a franchise. NBA Action 95 used to have his hair color change (when he was on the Spurs) and NBA In the Zone 2 used to have it change each game as well (when he was on the Bulls). In the Zone had the red hair with the black bull, as well as other styles like green, purple, yellow, etc.

Nitpicking, but I hope that all the Jays aren't the same model(height), ex: kobes last year wasn't even low top last year, it was like the same height of every other shoe in the gm. 2k should have lows, mids, hi

From these pics it looks like Mike is wearing low socks but the 13s were pretty hi

this pic makes me wish we had the Pacers with Reggie Miller, the Suns with Thunder Dan & Barkley (even though Barkley doesnt want to be in the game) and the Rockets with Hakeem and Clyde.

Sadly, none of those teams had nothing to do with Jordan moments except for the suns maybe.

Nah...the best intro was of the first three-peat Bulls. Now that was a better team IMO (and in MJ's opinion too )

Re: Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

Just about to finish watching the 1990 Bulls-Bucks game (didn't have time to watch it all yesterday)...wow! What a great D in this game and what a great O! And I counted at least 10 no-calls that would be hard ones today. my favorite: 3 Bucks guys sorrounding MJ, then Lohause taking advantage of MJ losing the handle and going to the floor, hittinh MJ on the had and taking the ball for a wide-open jam. MJ got hit on the head - lying on the floor - and no ref even thought there was a foul. Now that's the good old NBA!

And I don't remember seeing any coach today letting players with 4 fouls play in mid 3rd quarter (paxon) or players with 5 fouls playing in the mid 4th (Pippen). It was less of a problem then because players didn't pick fouls like today, even though they played harder.

Oh man, that Bucks front court...they were schooling Pippen and Grant although being less athletic, but they were quick and had all the basics. Really good players!

That was real basketball back then my friend.

I expect 1986 Larry Bird and 1990 Dominique Wilkins faces to be as awesome (if not better) than these

Re: Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

And I expect to see the images you posted...LOL . Bird and Wilkins should look good. Don't remember seeing Bird (have I missed it?) But Wilkins looks really good and he has his own dunk package.

no way man the 72 win Bulls were the best team. I was a Rodman fan so i liked the Bulls more when he was on the team because it made the games even more exciting watching him dive in the stands for loose balls, play lock down D, grab boards and get the crowd excited, and then the whole "is he getting a T or thrown out tonight" factor.

Re: Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

I will try to post them again tomorrow, sorry for that

Re: Attention to detail in Jordan Challenge (Big Pics inside)

That's fine, I remember exactly what they look like.

The best winning record doesn't make a team "the best" (playoff record count's too BTW). The 69-13 Lakers were even better than the 1996 Bulls. MJ himself said that the 91-93 Bulls were better than the 96-98 Bulls as a team. But if you are a Rodman fan, then you are entitled to your opinion

i dont know, its hard for me to believe those 91-93 teams were better than the 96-98 teams. Jordan was even better in 96-98 than he was in 91-93, same for Pippen. Rodman was a better defender than Grant, Kerr could shoot like Paxton, Harper added more than BJ, Cartwright was better than Longley i'll say that but Kukoc off the bench as well. Maybe Jordan just enjoyed those teams more but its hard for me to agree that those earlier teams were better. But its tough to tell and if MJ says that its also hard to argue with the GOAT.
