Did you know that the Detroit Pistons refused to shake their opponent’s Chicago Bulls' hands after losing a game?
We all had a chance to watch the Last Dance Documentary. It was clear that there was no love lost between Pistons’ Isiah Thomas and Bulls’ Michael Jordan. The Pistons dominated the Bulls for years and seemed to be always in the way of Jordan winning his first Championship. The year was 1991…the Bulls were ready!
Both teams met in the Conference Finals for the third straight year Chicago would go ahead and sweep Detroit! Isiah Thomas, Bill Laimbeer and Mark Aguirre in their last show of defiance walked off the court with 7.9 seconds left so as not to congratulate Jordan and the Bulls!
Up to this day, the game is still remembered as one of the worst displays of sportsmanship and respect.
