Hey guys this one team was full of thugs and and the refs let them hammer people relentlessly for a couple years. So they were a fair representation of the average nba team for 15-20 years


I'm not saying the Piston's were a fair representation of the average NBA team. But the league was more physical overall at that time...even if the Pistons were considered to be the most physical. But specific to Jordan slowing down in his early/mid 30's relative to Lebron, it's not a secret Detroit's MO in defending Jordan was simply to beat him up. With the league already being physical, and the most physical team purposely trying to hurt you, that takes a toll players of this era probably didn't have to deal with.
