    Default Re: 1995-96 Bulls went 87-13 (.870), best case scenario for GSW is 89-14 (.864)

    People talk about GSW's athleticism/length but the 1996 Bulls also had that. Consider:

    PG - Harper 6'6"
    SG - Jordan 6'6"
    SF - Pippen 6'8"
    PF - Rodman 6'8"

    Kukoc 6'10" long, agile coming off the bench. This Bulls team could suffocate opponents in stretches and shrink the court on the perimeter.

    Longley 7'2"
    Wennington 7'0"
    Caffey 6'8"


    Bulls had plenty of big bodies to throw at teams.

    GSW would not be taking advantage of the shortened 3 pt line because of Chicago's length and quickness on defense. They'd be shooting from normal distance and out because that's where they'd get enough space to shoot.

    And besides, Chicago would have no trouble exposing mismatches against GSW. They were an exceptionally smart team. They'd own the paint and the rebounds.

    Not only that, but they actually utilized their size by being great with positioning and being a great rebounding, defensive and post up team. Teams can have size but negate it by standing out near half court waiting on a pass to shoot 3's.

    Ummm... 96 GP would have Curry crying b .... his one on one defense is so godly

    Forget the '96 Bulls, I think the '14 Spurs would shit all over this Warriors squad.
