A lot of shots.
I was a huge Bulls fan, too.
I have been a Bulls fan since the Wooridge and Sellars days. Satellite TV was new to our house, and wild feed/unscrambled Chicago games were awesome.
No announcers, just Basketball and close-up shots of hot bitches in the crowd during TO's.
Most people have a hard time looking back and seeing how things really were.

I 100% agree with you. That works both ways though. People act like 20 years ago guys were a bunch of slow stiffs who could not handle today's athleticism. It's not true. Someone like Hootie would go on about how John Stockton would get run over today... it's not true. They just don't understand the game. Go ask Gary Payton about that. He was one of the best defensive guards of all time, still would be today... and I've seen multiple interviews where he said Stockton was the toughest player he played against. And he guarded Jordan and Kobe. Those guys would hold their own. And I like Tyson Chandler and Kevin Love, very good players... but they would get beat up by a Barkley/Malone/Ewing/Robinson frontcourt. That'd actually be the real problem with a dream team matchup, not LeBron vs. Jordan.
