Bill Simmons: "96 Bulls are not a top-10 All-time and are worse than the '01 Lakers"

The Bulls went 72-10. How can they not be in the top 10?

bird/mchale/parrish is better than jordan, pippen, rodman... jordans the greatest of all time, but as far as im concerned.. rodman is no where near parrish, and pippen wasnt better than mchale.. no way

bird
walton
mchale
parrish
ainge
johnson

is better than any bulls team, ever.. its pretty simple to see..

jordan > bird
Pippen >= Mchale
Rodman < than Parish but >>rebounder, defender which is all he needed to do.

Edge goes to Celts for talent overall , but 96 Bulls combined better as a team IMO

Prime-Shaq led Championship team that went 15-1 in a VERY tough western conference finals...

Chicago went through a better East and then played a real team in the finals to boot. The NBA's decline may have started around 96 but it went into full steam ahead in 99 and has gotten worse with each passing year to the point where the league is pretty much a joke.

This is one of the worst posts I've seen in a long time.

The Lakers second best player was Kareem!. They would definitely account for the Bulls. So would Bird & company.

Jordan would have dunked all over kareem just like he did with shaq...

do I really need to bring everyone back to reality with a bunch of MJ footage?

you don't think Rodman could handle Kareem as well as anyone else could?...yeah that hook shot was great and all but you have a defensive MVP in Jordan and a great defender in Rodman...I am sorry but the 96 Bulls could hang with the best of them....ALL OF THEM...

I am sick of people trying to act as though they have great basketball knowledge in saying that other teams could have stomped the 90s Bulls...it simply is not the truth...

the 90's bulls.. would literally be like the 2007 cavs in the finals, against the 86 celtics.... all one player getting the team by.. especially against a team like boston in the 86' season..

the bulls simply wouldnt be able to match up with the 86 celtics.. with jordan scoring alot.. like lebron right now, and pippen being like drew gooden or big Z.. the rest of the team is blahhhhhhhhh and the 86 celtics were fine tuned like the current spurs team..

celtics would win easy..

it would be like.. jordan may score alott.. we could go down low to.... against mchale.. and we have a scoring presence... uh... against parrish... and we have a great player... uh.. to match up with bird.. while a number of players we could throw at jordan...

**G-train** · 06-12-2007, 02:17 AM

I respect you opinion, but the Celts have no one to guard a smart efficient Jordan, nor the versatile Pippen. Likewise the celts had a very finely tuned offense with 3 or 4 great options. It would be pretty close

Kobe will be better than them for the next 5 years, in which he probably will age and slow down.
