1992 Bulls vs 2013 Heat

[Young X]

You're crazy. And the Cavs? The 90's Cavaliers were about as soft as it got. Talented team that was full of p.ussies aside from Hot Rod and Harper. They would have crumbled like they did every year.

Youre probably right about the Cavs, I can't see them getting past the Knicks tho. They're a better team, but that's a terrible matchup for them - Ewing would destroy their frontline.

[SamuraiSWISH]

I might be crazy, but would Miami even beat the '92 Knicks?

... or the Cavs?

Any of those Riley Knick or Heat teams would beat these Miami Heat ... Too much physicality and toughness. Bron and Wade bitched and moaned about 2013 Bulls defense. How you think they would react to Xavier, Oakley, Starks, and Mason trying to knock their block off and getting under their skin, while still being elite defensively?

Hate to break it to you, but LeBron's isn't Craig Ehlo or John Starks. He would hand Jordan his ass on a platter. Dude would have left a year early to go fail at baseball.

What are you talking about? Mj was guarded by dpoty dennis rodman(6'7), Lewis 6'7 long arms, alkan houston (6'6), sidney moncrief Dpoty 6'4, Steve smith, Larry johnson etc.... are you retarded? Mj would lihht up LJ just like Durant does.

Im just not seeing the Bulls take this. The 2013 Spurs were overall a better team than the 92 Bulls, and they had to play almost perfect to take Miami to seven games.

No. No they were not.

Bitching and moaning about a team they 4-1 every year?

[Marchesk]

Bulls have no one to guard LeBron

[poido123]

Except it is the 92' team man No Rodman.

[diamenz]

why are people responding to silkk - do i really need to bump that one thread?

bulls would kill the heat in five games. it's not about jordan vs lebron it's about the team concept and the bulls have a huge advantage in that department, not to mention the goat coaching. phil jackson would have a field day the with heat. plus, grant would destroy bosh and birdman in the post. ya, he wasn't 'all that' but that's how bad miami's interior is.

Jordan stans trying to put themselves on the level of Kobe stan stupidity.

Jordan stans hate me. If the Pacers without Granger can give the Heat that much trouble, im sure the Bulls (a better team) could do better without Pippen. Meaning they win in seven. With Pippen. They win in five

[secund2nun]

Heat in 7. Now if Miami was facing a team with an all time great center like 2000 LA then they might lose because they have no one to stop Shaq.

[longtime lurker]

Anyone with half at least half brain(read anyone but Lebron stans) know the Bulls would absolutely kill the Heat.

Without Pippen, the heat can beat them in 6. Pippen, during those playoffs averaged 20/9/7/2/1 on 47%. They'd lose their second best offensive player.
With Pippen, the Bulls would win in 6.

I would love to see Jordan ruthlessly rip LeBron's heart out. LeBron got punked in that department by Shawn Marion and Jason Terry. I can only imagine what Jordan would do...

[f0und]

im a heat fan and i say the '92 Bulls easily. 6 games at the most. i say that because jordan never went to a game 7 in the finals.

the '92 Bulls are one of the best teams ever. miami stuggled through the playoffs. that kind of play aint gonna get it done against the GOAT on one of his greatest teams.

even when miami was healthy and ran off 27 straight wins, they didnt do it in blowout fashion. they did it with the "flip the switch" method. they'd look pedestrian for most of the game then flip the switch at about the 5 minute mark. cant pull that *hit against a great veteran team in their prime.

[Segatti]

LeBron is the most complete perimeter defender in NBA history. If anyone can guard Jordan, it's him. You got to remember, LeBron isn't some 6'2 SG. You know, the typical type of defender in Jordan's era.

Kevin Durant 30.6 points on .548 .394 .839 against the Heat in the finals. Good luck stopping Jordan
