Yeah, I'd say the end of the truly physical, bully-ball brand of basketball ended with the Rodman-Laimbeer led Pistons. They would maul you, and they were super strong for a few years, but ultimately, the Bulls and Jordan overcame all of that. Ever since then, with the addition of more severe penalties for flagrant fouls, and officiating calling the game differently, the days of bully ball are long gone, for better or worse.
