>Yeah but I bet if you look back they were were pretty good defensive team. Michael Jordan was pretty good defensive player. He was once a defensive player of the year and a selected to all NBA defensive first team multiple times.

They were one of the best defensive teams ever, up there with Bill Russell's Celtics. MJ was almost as good on defense as he was on offense and Scottie Pippen was even better. Scottie was quick enough to double down in the post and still get back to his man if necessary. "A one man wrecking crew," as Phil Jackson aptly called him.
