3. 1990 Eastern Conference Finals - Chicago Bulls

A hard fought series vs their most hated rivals. Pushed to 7 games. In game 7 only Jordan was able to get going and the rest of the Bulls team completely disappeared. Pippen was supposedly suffering migraines and told coaches he couldn't go anymore. In the locker room after the game Jordan was in tears and consoled by his father James. .

Never realized how bad Jordan’s cast was in that game.

Pippen 1/10 fg, 2 points, 4 rebounds 2 assists
Grant 3/17 fg, 10 points
Hodges 3/13 fg, 8 points
Cartwright 3/9 fg, 6 points
Armstrong 1/8 fg, 2 points

That’s just..really atrocious but the Pistons were a tough defense. Those guys aside from Jordan just weren’t ready yet, even with a normal performance from them they probably lose considering the home court disadvantage.
