Warriors > 96 Bulls

[Elosha]

Orlando was without Horace Grant that series, imagine if a guy like Steve Adams was out for OKC, he is a worse player than Grant but you would still hear shit like "Golden State catches another break due to injuries".

True. But Horace DID play in most of game 1 before getting hurt and the Bulls were absolutely crushing Orlando when he left the game. Grant was a solid player; but he would not have made much, if any, difference, especially with Rodman to help neutralize him. The Bulls would still have swept them.

Warriors are a great team, but they'd go down to the Bulls in 6 games.

You joking? Seattle >>> OKC.

Maybe the 96 Sonics but it's not like they weren't chokers either... Also Durant/Westbrook is better than Payton/Kemp. You sure detlef and hawkins is enough to make up the deficit when okc's role players like Adams and Ibaka have proven to be pretty good these playoffs.

You joking? Seattle >>> OKC.

No. Durant & Westbrook >>> GP & Kemp.

To make things worse the Sonics weren't a very deep team, they played 7 guys for the most part and their starting center was a scrub so they were really a 6 man team.

The Sonics were more like the modern day Clippers to be honest

shaq and penny's the only team with more starpower than OKC that the 90's Bulls faced and are most likely worse on defense too(no i'm not saying the Warriors would beat the Bulls). It's not that outlandish to say OKC is right up there with the best teams the Bulls faced.

A team with a topn5/6 PG of all time and a top 4 PF of all time doesn't have star power ?

[deja vu]

Durant/Westbrook may be better than Kemp/Payton but Schrempf was better than the 3rd best player in OKC. People sleeping on Schrempf (3x All Star).

when they were going up against Jordan no, not quite. Stockton was past his prime in 98 and wasn't as impactful as current Westbrook. Don't see any reason Malone and Durant aren't comparable. I could see 97 Jazz being better than OKC since stockton was great that year but still not sure he's as good as Westbrook. Stockton and Malone are high up in career rankings because of longevity, not as much for peak play. Also comparing 2 retired guys to 2 guys still playing is always going unfair, Durant could easily become a top 5 sf of all time, westbrook could become a top 10 pg of all time.

So Stockton and Malone aren't that???



Go ahead and try to disprove that.



Remember, in actually a Bulls fan. Not a stan like yourself.

Bulls fan : STFU bandwagon bitch.

[BlazerRed]

What

Curry wouldn't even average 15 against the 96 Bulls.

LOL

Wait, what's so funny here?



Are people seriously underrating Malone and Stockton here.


How could Stockton be past his prime? He entered the league same at the time as MJ.

Thought you were talking about GP & Kemp for a sec.

Still, current Westbrook was simply a better player than '97 Stockton and many would take Durant over Malone as well, like NBAGOAT said, Stockton and Malone are looked highly in the all-time ranks mostly due to their longevity, current Durant & Westbrook are a better 1-2 punch than '97 Stockton & Malone.

Bandwagon? I been a fan of my team longer then you been alive.



And I quoted the poster who said the magic had more star power then any team the 90s Bulls played. Learn to read you idiot.
