Chicago bulls we're no.6 in the east with 47-35 record: beaten no.3 cleveland cavaliers shock first round 3-2(MJ the shot), and the atlantic division champs New York Knicks in 4-2
1989 NBA awards: Dale Ellis-3pt shooting champs, Kenny sky walker-slam dunk champs, Karl the mailman malone-all star game MVP, cotton.f-coach of the year, Mitch Richmond-rookie of the year, Eddie Johnson-6th man of the year and earvin magic johnson-league most valuable player
14:03 BACK IN GOLDEN STATE? Are you serious, Dick? You should have punched the script writer in the mouth. It should have been BACK IN OAKLAND. There is no such location as GOLDEN STATE.
This is a notoriously TERRIBLE championship video. It was the first year the NBA took over production (instead of the winning team), and it shows. It's an NBA yearbook, not a championship video. Watch "Bad Boys" (not the ESPN 30-for-30, but here on YouTube) to see what a great team video looks like.
1989 NBA WORLD CHAMPIONS BAD BOYS DETROIT PISTONS: ISAIAH THOMAS, JOE DUMARS, DENNIS RODMAN, JAMES EDWARDS, BILL LAIMBEER, VINNY THE MICROWAVE JOHNSON, RICK MAHORN, JOHN SPIDER SALLEY, KELLY TRIPUICKA, &, MORE….
THE 1989 BAD BOYS DETROIT PISTONS WERE LUCKY THAT BYRON SCOTT & MAGIC JOHNSON BOTH GOT INJURED. THE LAKERS SWEPT THERE WAY TO THE 1989 NBA FINALS, BUT THEN BOTH MAGIC JOHNSON & BYRON SCOTT GET INJURED & THE LAKERS DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN PLAYING SHORT HANDED.
I owned these championship videos: 1980-That Magic Season. 1982-Something To Prove. 1983-That Championship Feeling. 1985-Return To Glory. 1988-Bad Boys 1989-Motor City Madness 1990-Pure Pistons.
But of course the bronsexuals would say he could withstand the bad boys physical play because hes so big and strong so getting elbow smashed by a guy like Rick Mahorn would have no effect on him at all..

what's up with the dam car Ads?
I like that you always have the distribution title cards and jingles on your videos. This one even has the car ads included. Wow, haha!
This brings back great childhood memories. The NBA was so much better back then. Truly was the golden era of the league.
Opening song, so many memories.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE 89 TEAM THEY WEREN'T GOING 2 BE STOPPED …._

THE BAD BOYS DETROIT PISTONS HAD A TERRIFIC TRIO OF GUARDS: ISIAH THOMAS, JOE DUMARS, &, VINNY THE MICROWAVE JOHNSON.
BIG GAME JAMES WORTHY 42# OF THE L.A. LAKERS TORCHED EVERYBODY ON THE DETROIT PISTONS TEAM.
48:00 postscript
A great way to end a great decade.
I bought this VHS in July of 1989 right after they won their first title.
I owned these championship videos:
1980-That Magic Season.
1982-Something To Prove.
1983-That Championship Feeling.
1985-Return To Glory.
1988-Bad Boys
1989-Motor City Madness
1990-Pure Pistons.
This bulls team was getting there but not quite. A step closer than the year before,
but still too reliant on Jordan.
Pistons were constantly destroying the Bulls back then.
But of course the bronsexuals would say he could withstand the bad boys physical play because hes so big and strong so getting elbow smashed by a guy like Rick Mahorn would have no effect on him at all..
Detroit Pistons had smoked the LA Lakers in 4 games in 1989,and ended Kareem 20 years nba career?
4-gone conclusion
Detroit Pistons had finally got over the hump in 1988-89
THE 1ST TIME I EVER WENT TO DETROIT MICH IS AFTER MY PISTON’S SWEPT THE LAKERS AND THEY HAD THE PISTON’S PARTY …..
