I think a few detroiter's were on the team too... mabey Bill Lambere? Dennis Rodman? Isaiah Thomas....?
i still dont really like that pros are able to play in the olympics
seeing that Pippins jersey is retired... it definately goes to show how good a team can be with three of the greatest players the game had seen at once (Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippen, Micheal Jordan... 4/5 years as NBA champs)
EDIT:
Scottie stopped playing in 2004 @ 39 years old

Huh?
do you mean more 'only one' american in this thread? (me)
im not the biggest NBA fan... but if detroit does well in the first round of the playoffs... then i become a 'fan' again
its not like hockey to me... which is exciting all the time :-d also... baseball is still my 'true' sport... but its been less exciting since the 94 season and other more recent reasons

His first year was 87-88. In other words he was in the nba before you were born.
