The best crossover in the nba. It's a leader

[trollgoal]

I think Isaiah had the best ground game in the history of the nba..the the actual goal was just the cherry on top!

[Droog13]

Also, I'm very familiar with the Jordan Rules. I've heard some guys knock it, but I saw this one video explaining it and I was actually pretty impressed. Chuck Daly was a great coach, R.I.P.

[Droog13]

Hey, I'm not knocking Dumars, either, he's a cool guy and I respect him, but Jordan still got his points against him and the rest of the Pistons, even if it was some of the toughest he's ever earned.

If you like Isiah more, that's cool, too, he was a great player who had a lot of big moments. 16 points in 90 seconds, 25 points in a single quarter... pretty Goddamn impressive stuff.

I ran out of space in my previous response. But apparantly you never heard of the "Jordan Rules." Even Jordan, when asked in several interviews, admits that Dumars was the most difficult cat he's ever had to deal with defensively.

I'm not knocking Jordan dude. He did his thing. I just think Isiah was the better ball player. It's my opinion. I'm entitled to that.

[DiaAkin]

Dude, your research is faulty. You can't compare his ENTIRE playoff run to the few games he played against the Pistons. And you're researching Dumars on the downslope of his career. He retired like 4 years after that. Look at the 86, 87, 88 stats of the GAMES he played the Pistons. They only met 4 times per season and then maybe a few games in the Playoffs. Keep in mind that they had the 5, 7, 7, 7, format back then also. Your stats are his NBA stats as a WHOLE. Not individual "vs Pistons" games

[Droog13]

.... plus his field goal percentage was a bit over .500. it was pretty much the same the season before, too.

[Droog13]

"I personally, think that Isaiah was a better ball player. He was unstoppable. Dumars would put the clamp on Jordan with ease, but Isaiah..come on. Ya'll just saw it. He'd have two of the best defenders on him and break both. That's pure talent right there. Definitely a legend."

Hey, I liked the late 80s- early 90s Pistons, too, but do you have any examples of Dumars putting the "clamp" on Jordan? I just looked at his 89-90 playoff stats, and he was ahead of everyone else in scoring average....

thank u stirs11 finnaly!

[fonsway]

Yeah he was that guy.

[Leslie9602]

You guys have the wrong idea. MJ had better teamates sure isiah has dumars but it was up to isiah too ball handle

[mickeyjordan]

Jordan had better ball handling skills than Magic and Isiah, buddy.

Clyde Drexler said thath once.

Magic was a better passer, and Isiah was a better scorer than Magic.
