I was pretty much too young to grow up a Bad Boys era fan but it's impossible to not appreciate that kind of history.

But believe me, that crowd was eruptive through-out the entire player introductions.

I know he was just joking around but knowing Isiah and his "old school" mentality he took that as a challenge. And in result he had his team (which is one of the worst teams in the league) lay an ass-whooping on the team Chauncey claims would beat Isiah's and Joe's Badboys. Good showing! - Chauncey didn't have a too bad of game but I know he could of played better and the same goes for the rest of the starting five. - Even with more than half the crowd missing from action, with less than 2 minutes left, the Palace was still rocking...literally. - And if it wasn't for that miracle shot by Collins with less than 10 seconds in the game. Rodney Stuckey, with out a doubt, would of sent this thing into Overtime. -That guy is amazing- A couple of notes about the ceremony and the game:

The team was never the same after Mahorn got picked up by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the expansion draft, even though they won it in 1990 also. It was cool to see all of them back together, true bad boys that lived up to their hype and their names. can I admit as a grown ass man that I had a bit of a creeper well up in the corner of both eyes as I watched that… The team was never the same after Mahorn got picked up by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the expansion draft, even though they won it in 1990 also.

He said that the way the game is called now they would have had a lot of trouble with the current team. But if it was called the way it was back then, "we would've put some hands on 'em." I always loved that line. I remember a couple years ago, Dumars was asked who would win between the Bad Boys and this team.

Best hour in television in a long, long time. And after seeing Buddha bald and clean-shaven? I think I'm going to have to finally buy one of those DBB Buddha t-shirts. That was so much fun to watch.
