Yes, I respect your opinion and understand your point of view. I mean no disrespect to the 96-98 Bulls, which were awesome teams with very very talented individuals. But all in all they were an aging team which was not the case with the first three-peat Bulls.

The 91-93 Bulls were very versatile, they could go small, big, medium, they played better defense overall as a team and had more depth (they could win games with their second unit, a luxury the second three-peat Bulls couldn't afford).

They virtually had 3 sixth men in BJ Armstrong, Scott Williams and Cliff Levingston...while Hodges, Perdue, Tucker and Hansen played key roles. Even Stacey King didn't was that bad as many people refer to him.

Harper was a very good versatile player that stood the most of that second three-peat Bulls IMO. Kerr was indeed a poor man's John Paxson, while Wennington was a good center too and Jud Buechler played a similar role as Bobby Hansen, while Longley despite being a decent player, lacked the Basketball I.Q. Cartwright had...

Caffey, Simpkins, Brown or even Salley hmmmm...that's another story. They simply didn't have the impact or energy of players like Scott Williams, Cliff Levingston, Perdue and Craig Hodges coming of the bench.

Both were very good and amazing teams. But for me and MJ () the first three-peat Bulls had this "team edge" that the second one lacked.

Jordan was even better in 96-98 than he was in 91-93

explain please?

I think he meant his Basketball I.Q. from '96 to '98 was better

In my opinion:

'87 MJ: Absolute KILLER. 37 points per game? That is SICK.

'88 MJ: Best all around year in my opinion. 32ppg, but 8 rebounds AND 8 assists per game? That's domination.

'92 MJ: Can't put my finger on it, but I think he mastered the game this season. Was still explosive off the dribble PLUS he had a post game now to match.

'96 MJ: My favorite. Not the best Jordan, but I liked the thirst he had that season. Plus, the 11s are the best shoes ever.

For me it's a very close call between 1991 & 1992 MJ

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

Watching the 1990 Bulls-Bucks game, I saw MJ posting up and shooting fadeaways about 2-3 times. It wasn't as common as afterwards, but it was already there. One time he did it while Robertson was guarding him closely. MJ turned around, shot and made it...and LOL at Robertson's reaction. He was like: "WTF was that???!!" LMAO!

I wonder if Jordan will trash talk to other players

If you want to complete the Bad Boys challenge, I hope he doesn't. Because if he does, he may not survive that game...

Although he got "punished" by the Pistons back in the day, he never backed down

If not the Pistons I'm not sure he would be that tough. He owes them all his titles.

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

I haven't been paying much attention to the Jordan Challenge feature in NBA 2K11 so pardon my ignorance but will the teams that they have announced as being part of the challenge i.e the 1990 Detroit Pistons, will the Pistons have accurate rosters from the 1990 season? If this is a yes this would make me buy this game on that alone!!

Yes

I'm not sure every player will be there, but the more signficant ones - for sure!
