haha i knew this thread would happen eventually.

 

and DAMN didn't realise how little superstars like Jordan made in the 90s on the court.

 

 

 

Matt, what are your thoughts on who is the better team if they both played a nba finals? taking into account the opposition players that both teams had to contend with.

you still got to go with the bulls. 

yes the warriors have a awesome streak going and are the champs, but its 1 year. they could be the next dynasty, but that is a wait and see project.

the bulls did 2 x 3-peats. yes they had the best player ever in MJ, but it was a team effort. 

look at the likes of lebron, freak player, but if wade, bosh and co werent there with him, no rings.

 

i am with the bulls at this point in time, but in 2 years time it could be a different matter.

Too early to say but you have to start looking at the other great all-time-win teams with a start like this. 2 of their players could go down and they don't even finish with the record as good as last season who knows!

 

It could be a game 7 - Bulls could make the adjustment to all the 3 point shooting of the Warriors who knows? The speed in transition could be too much for the Bulls? It's just a fascinating conversation and I just love looking at and trying to compare stats (nerd yes). 

 

Imagine Pippen guarding some of these dudes though!?!? And Rodman and Draymond going for the boards?? Oh man........bball heaven

 

Gun to my head I'd lean towards Bulls - proven and already history in the books. That's what the Warriors are trying to get to. Going to be awesome to watch.
