Buried in an otherwise average article on John Paxson in the Chicago Sun Times today was this little nugget:
When Michael Jordan joined the Bulls as the NBA’s No. 3 pick in 1984, he quickly was disenchanted with a roster he called “the Looney Tunes.”
While that team was the most physically talented Jordan had played with up to that point, it also featured players who used cocaine, others who drank and partied too much, and also some slackers interested more in how much they got paid rather than how well they played.
“Drug use was pretty rampant at that time, and there was a lot wrong with the Bulls,” Former Bull Sidney Green said.

This team photo looks like it was taken in a prison yard. I'm thinking the only player on the team who didn't do crack was Mean Lean Dave Corzine. He was probably too busy giving mustache rides.
