Haven't watched it yet. But, i don't need that much reminding of that team. I watched a lot of their playoff games.

Since i've been a Bulls fan since the first game of the franchise, i hated the Pistons too. I still can't stand to look at or listen to Isaiah.

Him taking the GM job at Detroit would be good for those of us who watch NBA TV because he won't be there anymore.

There were only a few guys on that team that were not loathesome, but they did play dirty basketball, just like the loathesome guys. (John Salley, Joe Dumars, Rodman) Rodman wasn't a dirty player when he first started getting important mintues. The more he was around Thomas, Mahorn, and Lambeer, the nastier he got because the nasty was contagious.

One thing i don't like from the previews is this notion that they were the first hip-hop team. That's nonsense. They were just punks who were around when rap first took off. That's a coincidence not correlation. The background track of the previews was Fight The Power. That's in insult to Public Enemy.

I'll probably watch it tonight. I have some anti-nausea medicine around here somewhere.

Not sure why the Pistons get the bad rap when the Celtics did the EXACT SAME THING. They show it in the movie 1 minute before the game ended.

If you pulled the shit they did on the court in pick up there would be a major fight. They were just plain dirty and even though McHale clothes lined Rambis the Celtics were never as dirty as the Pistons.
