Everybody Played like the Bad Boy Pistons, Its just the Pistons got a Bad rap for it

"We were Bad Boys..... But we were bad in a different way.  We just weren't that good." -- Grant Hill.  Classic.

Kenny needs to let people finish what they're saying for once before interrupting them every god damn time.

You can tell Steve was touched as a youth by Isiah it's really beautiful.

they had an identity, they created a culture of toughness, and they were winners. what more could you say?

Grant Hill quote at the end. Hilarious.

kenny need to stop interrupting isiah, because hes the gum under my shoes compared to isiah

Mj said it best "they made us great i dont think we could ve won 6 rings without getting over the hump in detroit".

Will forever respect this bad boys piston teams of the 80s and early 90s to me they where never appreciated enough

Yeah, Isiah is right. The whole league was physical then but Kenny just ruins this clip - and it's Isiah he's interrupting. Great topic, Brutal to listen to....

Pistons played the game like men, and a bunch of whiners complained because they were actually that good!

Can Kenny learn to not cut anyone off when they're talking? Sheesh.

Even as a Celtics fan, I love the Bad Boy Pistons. They played real ball

Bad Boys for life!!!!!

It was completely unfamiliar to people back in the 80s to see that type of play, they weren't scared of it but they had their doubts about the process. People don't accept the things they don't know, they're quick to dismantle things and at the same time there's an inevitable conflict from that process. The Bad Boys was a brand that claimed that style of play as it's own. They took sovereignty over an aggressive agenda and infused that within their culture as Pistons. It was something strange to be proud of so people didn't like it, but it was definitely something worth talking about. Kind of reminds you of how you feel after watching a Spike Lee joint, it can confuse you and anger you, but at the same time theres a sense of truth in there that you can't ignore.

why is kenny talking?

As fans... We are use to it in Detroit. Been that way since I was born in 79. If u come here to play... Do what the Bad Boys did. Embrace it and just do it better.

I remember Isaiah coming to the hood on springle playing ball between Mack and Charlevoix Eastside Detroit.

Kenny Smith needs to shut up. Good lord.

Does Kenny ever shut up?

Damn Kenny needs to shut up he thinks he's an NBA legend lol
