love Joe dumars, underrated beast on the floor. only issue I had is, I can only imagine the kind of player Carmelo could have been with the vets in detroit. other then that he was a favorite player and great in the office
Dumars or anyone giving MJ the clown a pass for the $hit he talked about the Pistons being undeserving champions is unacceptable. Dumars was a helluva player but got played by MJ just like Patrick Ewing. Van Gundy was right all along.
I use to love to see Mike go against Joe. That battled hard and I constantly remind people that Joe Dumars could make Mike work. John Starks played him good also.
This is the guy who should be Interviewed and talked about. He held Mike in place for years. Was a gentleman. Didn't let the moment or Mike get to him. He just controlled what he could and let the rest go
Shut you cheap bastard. I was a garbage man. I pick up at his house in bloomfield. He never tip us. He used to bring out extra shit. He is a or thank us.
Dumars was tough, smart, got rough when he had to but he never crossed the line like so many others on the Pistons. I think that's one of the reasons Jordan has so much respect for him. That and Jordan said Dumars was his toughest defensive opponent
You're aiming for finals and win. If someone beat you t go there. They better be able to go to finals the least. So you know you were beaten by a strong team.
Now when you hear Joe say this speaks a lot about how Mike lives rent free in Isiah Thomas's head, bro you just was a dirty unlikable player unless you was a Pistons fan, folks upset that Mike could've played a hand in Thomas not making the first dream team, but ignore the fact on the "Jordan Rules" or forming up a "Don't Pass The Ball To Mike" in the All-Star game, but he wonder why he's not liked, meanwhile you had Joe who's always be a class act that played basketball and not basketbrawl, Thomas probably mad that Joe spoke highly of Mike as we speak lol
Joe D was a class act and played Michael as hard as anyone but he also shook Mike's hand in defeat. Mutual respect. Isaiah on the other hand was a douche. No class
Game respects Game JD & MJ had some of the NBA'S best match ups of all time they both respected the others ability, Joe was one of the few players that could D Jordan up one on one the entire game
Joe and MJ had mutual respect to the point Joe named his son after Jordan . Jordan Dumars. This is all facts now the rest of the pistons he hates them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Especially Isaiah
Many Pistons believe that the timing of the Bulls finally beating the Pistons coincides with Jordan And Dumars being great friends. They believe while authentic , MJ used it to defeat the pistons. No shade …as a pistons fan I ain’t mad at him , I acknowledge he’s the 🐐 and when he finally beat us he became unstoppable
There's a really big shortage of players like that now. Guys who can play both ways fundamentally and stay in the background. Tough on the ball defense, especially, is undervalued.

He doesn't like Isaiah cuz Isaiah is 3-1
Ask Joe why he passed on Melo in the draft 😞

I wish Isaiah would have shaken Jordans hand ,then maybe Michael would have let him on the Dream Team.

They good respect for each other. The others don't and want to hurt him all the times

One word SPORTSMANSHIP. Dumars was a class act. JORDAN and JOE had a mutual RESPECT for each other.

MJ like Joe D class act no bs business real man

Mike respects people who respects The GAME

I love Mike the most. But if I was in the NBA playing for the Pistons in the 80’s he would definitely not like me.
HUMAN RESPECT for a REAL HUMAN BEING 💯
Joe dumars was cut from a different cloth.
Weird comment but Dumars had the most powerful thighs in the NBA i reckon
I think I read their wives were friends as well
Even Jordan said that Dumars play the best defense against him
He made Jordan WORK for his shots the whole damn pistons team did lol .
Still don't know why Dumars was never recognised or acknowledged in Grant Hill's HOF speech
Game respects Game JD & MJ had some of the NBA'S best match ups of all time they both respected the others ability, Joe was one of the few players that could D Jordan up one on one the entire game
Unlike when the bulls beat them I think Joe did shake his hand then I'm not sure but I no nobody else on his team did Joe a gentleman 👊
Take notes ..all you sore losers and bad winners …respect goes much further
Who is Matt Mahorn…and he related to Rick🤦🏾🤣🤣
Keyword….RESPECT. 14 years of it.
When Joe left I never really watched the Pistons again.
Joe and MJ had mutual respect to the point Joe named his son after Jordan . Jordan Dumars. This is all facts now the rest of the pistons he hates them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Especially Isaiah
A Players Player
I’m still convinced Duane’s is the best player on that pistons team, IT got more recognition for being a loud mouth but dumars was better
Dumars was a baller. Crazy handles and first step.
That was cool
Louisiana respect

Dumars named his son Jordan because of Mike
Dumars is and has always been a classy guy and a hard-working professional.
Cj McCollum & Desmond bane remind me of him a bit
If memory serves me correctly, Joe Dumars was the best player on one the pistons championship run. Finals MVP! Man he a mad game.
Joe is a legit man. Me and a couple of my homies used to hoop at Joe's crib and Joe Dumars fieldhouse.
Joe in all of his years of him being friends with Isiah and Mike never gets baited into the conversation with the Isiah vs Jordan issues
Joey D was A Commander more than just a General. Class Act. Thank You for the Memories.
