Wow this is fun. On NBC Sports Channel now. 2 bigtime cities going at it. MSG crowd is unbelievable. 2 great teams. Bulls did not beat this team easily. Can u imagine if the Knicks were good again what that stadium would be like? |

Salley was a huge guy and actually was still a force at this time. It wasnt the free ride he had while with the Lakers. |

Patrick Ewing hit 2 deep jumpers in the final minutes to get the Knicks the lead. One of them with Pip draped all over him. Didnt think the jump shot was his game. |

The NBA has changed a lot. The end of game fouls would be a technical 2 ejection today. Ewing just shoved Kerr to the ground to stop the clock. |

yea that woulda been dissected like crazy today. The defenses were rough in those days. The Bulls always had a knack for coming out on top in these low scoring defensive cage matches on the road. And the backups contributed more than people think. Fucking Wennington hit the go-ahead shot in this game. |

This is really fun to watch. Man they were so good on defense and at getting those 50/50 balls. Seeing Jack Haley on the bench is a treat too. |

Always found it funny that we had three former Bad Boy Pistons on that 1996 team. |

They just showed a stat on the Bulls Knicks game which had the Bulls with 16 offensive rebounds to the Knicks 1. That’s crazy considering it was against Ewing, Mason and Oakley. Of course Rodman was unreal but the guards used to really help out back then. |
