Lol, they were a fluke from going to 7 games and outscored the Bulls overall in the series. Charles went 27, 13, 5.5 in the series.

You can say Bird without having to make dumb statements


My recollection is Kevin Johnson playing poorly was the problem. Barkley killed and Majerle played well.

But those Bulls were really good. Jordan, Pippen, Grant, and Armstrong were a really strong core group of players. The Knicks team they beat in the Eastern finals was also pretty legit.

yeah, that Ewing-led Knicks team was great enough to win it all, maybe two titles if not for the juggernaut called Michael Jordan. shite, that great Olajuwon squad with Clyde Drexler, Kenny "knock-kneed" Smith, and co. would not have those titles if Jordan hadn't semi-retired to go and play baseball.

Spot on. I watched every minute of that series. For every play KJ made that was good, the other two were out of control / selfish plays that cost em.
The Suns were good enough to win it all.
