In that video they were helping off to wall up Jordan in almost every single possession

It is possible fatigue came into play on the others where the help came only in the paint in the very last possessions

They were playing Jordan as well as you possibly could to be honest

In the last 2 min of the game he didn’t see a help defender til he reached the paint. The video starts with them actually defending well and walling him up like you said, but then it completely went out the window.

Fatigue can def come into play, but it’s straight up bad defense outside of like the first minute of the video.
 
Definitely not rocket science to force Scottie or Kukoc to be the one to make the big play instead of letting the best player ever eviscerate you in isolation :lol:
well possibly they were still traumatized by this......
 
Literally everyone watching the game.
guess Utah didn't get the memo. on the otherhand, considering Pip's status, he's still a threat and could roll over Jeff. but still wouldn't make sense for him to double since Jordan went right. closest help was Stockton who tried for a steal. so even if Pip was handicapped, the offensive set really favored the Bulls as far who's covering or able to double. it was a well thought strategy.
