R.I.P. Coach Daly. You were the man who coached the original "Bad Boys"("Zeke", "Doom", "Spider", "Worm", "Microwave", & da rest of them) who literally knocked off the Lakers physically in Finals back in the day. I remember the "Jordan Rules", that was classic. You will not be forgotten, your great memories will always live here on youtube.

I'm a huge Bulls fan and have been all through the 80's. I hated the Pistons for a variety of reasons. They were a no class team with cheap shot artists. They showed their lack of class at the end of getting humiliated by the Bulls. Despite my hate for the team, I always respected Chuck Daly. He was able to control that zoo and make them winners.

[michig911]

With that said, Chuck Daly was one of the great coaches of all times (RIP). The pistons "bad boys" were a team that stopped Jordon cold with solid defense. Since the referees were calling everything from a breeze from a players hand to a nick on the finger, the pistons changed their strategy and made winy Jordon and the rest of the "Baby Bulls" pay. Back to Back Championships!

[scoresby33]

No, actually the PIstons were ruining basketball with their style of play. They didn't stop Jordan cold you dummie. Jordan was still getting over 40 points in playoff games statistically. What happened was Jordan started trusting his teammates and the Bulls got over that hump knowing they were the superior team. They had superior personnel and the Bulls globalized the NBA. The Pistons were the bastard child between the Lakers and Celtics and Bulls. The Pistons were no class cheapshot artists.

[michig911]

Like I said before Micheal Winy Jordon and the cry baby Bulls were nothing more then referee hounds. Micheal cried anytime he was touched or bumped. The Pistons stopped Micheal with solid defense leading the team to the eastern confrence finals (just for you). What hump are you talking about??? The Pistons broke up so there was nothing to climb . As for "dummie", it is spelled: dummy. How ironic that you would spell this word wrong.

[scoresby33]

It's ironic you would spell JORDAN and MICHAEL wrong in all your emails. DUMMIE! There isn't a correct way to spell DUMMIE. It's not a dictionary word. Maybe DUMBASS is more fitting for you. OR trashy Pistons fan. Or Mother Fucker. Or All of the above. Don't try to give me a grammar lesson when you spell like a little kid, fuckhead.

[michig911]

You got me! "Dummie"

[scoresby33]

Oh and Winy is spelled WHINY. You can't even get that right you stupid asshole.

[michig911]

Your right you stupid "dummie"

[gregpimpmack2]

I will always have more respect for the Pistons than Bulls. Fuck Jordan.

R.I.P Chuck Daly. Everybody is going to miss u. Your memories in Detroit will last forever.

[jefferyjarvis1234]

Coach Daly may be gone, but his memories will live forever. His comments about living life, and loving what you do is a testament to the character and perserverance that will surpass any championship he ever won. Its the belief to dream, something he told all his players. Coach Daly you set a very high bar in Detroit, WE WILL MISS YOU AND THANKS FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO OUR LIVES. WE LOVE YOU.

[queggy1]

I just learned that Chuck Daly passed away. Damn cancer. One of the greatest coaches ever. God, i remember those classic playoff games against my Bulls back in the late 80s and 90s. Those were always exciting, hard-nosed games. Yup - the Pistons played dirty - but those games were always great thrill. God bless Chuck Daly and his family and friends. R. I. P. !

[goodgbye]

Excellent coach!

[HarveyRex23]

RIP Chuck. One of the best NBA head coaches ever.

[trewsdetroit5]

Nobody epitomizes the term class act more than this guy. He was fun to watch work, being a Pistons fan, in the 80's.
