A big reason why the Jazz lost to the Bulls 2 years in a row was because

Reggie Miller also pushed off the series before...no call

This☝️. There was a lot pushing off in the 90s. That was how basketball was.

Pippen and Jordan were both incredible defenders. Among the best ever. Just bad

Yep. I am not blaming Stockton and Hornacek. They were victims of a lack of size

When you have a back court that big it causes problems

Think how much better than Jazz would have been if Elon Musk was the owner

He’s such a stellar owner the Jazz wouldn’t have ever made the playoffs.

Also Malone choked in the clutch & Jazz didn’t have enough scoring off the bench

In hindsight, Jazz should’ve upgraded from Hornacek for the 2 guard spot

Jazz had no bench which was huge. They needed contributions from Ostertag

This is true. Bench was trash.

Didn't they miss a shot click violation as well?

Jazz best chance was '99. Jordan retired and Bulls personnel fled.

Yep. That hurt.

Hornacek was too old. Supporting cast wasn’t good enough

There was a lockout and a compressed season. Old guys wore down.

They were not the 1 seed. They tied with San Antonio and back then, conference

They didn't over spend to get a couple more pieces and it cost them
