I hear ya but
the BULLs dislike is mainly MJ BULLs
you take MJ out of equation and Knicks - Bulls rivalry isnt the same
The HEAT like the PACERS disdain NY
more than any title... dont buy the few displaced Knick fans livin in Florida
The HEAT and PACERs teams despite the era NEVER ever respected the Knicks
Aside for Phil Jackson/Pippen dis-sing NY clubs in their battles
Michael Jordan respected knicks,
even moreso cause of his respect for Pat Ewing and only MJ raised his level of play to get BULLS past knicks
always on MJ teams
If MJ ever dis-respected NY his prep would be different and Knicks coulda beat Chi in few yrs
the HEAT of Riley and any Miami and Indy team had real dislike for NY
Miami will always be public enemy#1
not same as Chi MJ Bulls cause Jordan did it (6 titles) to wHOLE league
and put it to anyone in his way to greatness, wasn't only Ny
Just Jordan refuse to lose
bigger than the titles itself
