Those Bad Boys were pretty bad-ass. They came very close to a three-peat. They won in 89 and 90, and in 88 they came within one game of beating the Lakers. That was a very deep team, with Zeke, Dumars, Laimbeer, Rodman, Spiderman, Aguirre, Microwave, Buddha, et al.
I agree, the "Bad Boys" were a VERY deep team. And I agree with badguytony when he said that the Pistons were bullies, but come on, they won. When you're in the NBA, and your shooting for a title, it doesn't really matter how you play, as long as you win. What I felt was horrible sportsmanship though was after the Bulls FINALLY swept them in 91, the Pistons went straight to the locker room & didn't even shake the Bulls hands or congradulate them. Very poor & unprofessional!
