Horace Grant & Bill Cartwright Reflect on MJ, the First 3-Peat, and Derrick Rose’s Legacy

On the latest By The Horns, Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson sit down with Horace Grant and Bill Cartwright — two essential pieces of the Chicago Bulls’ first three-peat. The legends reflect on their chemistry as frontcourt anchors, Michael Jordan’s intensity in practice, the grind of repeating as champions, and the confidence that came with having No. 23 and No. 33 leading the way. They also share candid memories of physicality in the ’90s, their thoughts on today’s NBA, and their appreciation for Derrick Rose as the Bulls prepare to retire his No. 1 jersey.
