Ron Artest and the Pacers... :twisted:

From what I've heard, I'd say the Pistons are. I've read interview with other players where they say they just abuse the other team physically.

Well, if we are talking about an specific player it would be Rasheed, Artest is just crazy, the weed must have done something to him but he's manageable.

But if we are talking about a team.
Right now I wouldn't say there's a bad boys team, if there's any it might be the Knicks but it will never be compared with the Detroit from the late 80's & early 90's. Notice that not just one player converts his team in a bad boys team, Artest just gets crazy but is not backed up by his teammates, Rasheed also does, well maybe the whole portland team gets in trouble, but that's general, not that they get involved in the whole scene, you see their teammates trying to avoid the problems there, however when you are talking about New York, they get involved as soon there's some problem, everyone is pushing and trying to punch someone, lol.

I don't see any team standing out as the new version of the bad boys of detroit. New Jersey has the potential to be that team Especially with Kenyon Martin Patrolling the lane, but will that do them any favours?

Well....Indiana are the new bad boys because CrAzY Ron in one cRaZy mofo....But the Trial Blaze-- ...uh i mean Jail Bla--- uh...Trail..........Blazers...are still the bad boys i think. i mean, how can you beat all those bad asses, IN ONE TEAM... in a bad boy comp.

IMO, No One or No Team

Just because a player is crazy and his coach happens to be a part of the bad boys doesn't mean their the 'new bad boys'.

Ron Artest?! Indiana Pacers?!
Ben Wallace alone is 'badder' than the Pacers combined...excluding Isiah of course...

the Trial Blaze-- ...uh i mean Jail Bla--- uh...Trail..........Blazers

Nick, you're...

one cRaZy mofo

Except for the fact that Ben is a nice guy, and the rest of the Pistons aren't 'bad' at all.

What you talking about fool?

Michael Curry is vicious...

There will never be any other team like the Bad Boys, simply because that type of physical play is out of the rules. Any team today would be eaten alive by those back in the day...
