    Default Put 1991-1993 MJ on this Bulls team

    With a healthy D-Rose how many games do they win?

    Guaranteed championship. 65 wins is a good guess.

    So...

    Rose/Brooks/Hinrich
    Jordan/Snell/Butler
    Butler/McD/Dunleavy
    Gasol/Mirotic/Bairstow
    Noah/Taj/Gasol

    Assuming Rose is healthy...that's a 2001 Lakers level playoff team. Sweep the EC, lose maybe 1 game in the finals.

    A great defensive team that can slow down even a great offensive team, and you add the GOAT in his prime. I'm not sure how teams are going to game plan for MJ and healthy Rose. That team is winning a championship.

    Top 3 center, top 5 (if healthy) PG, top 10 PF, Kawhi-lite, a GREAT bench, and the GOAT? Might win 70 games unironically.

    With the GOAT, Jordan?

    PG - D. Rose / Brooks
    SG - Jordan / Hinrich
    SF - Butler / McD / Dunleavy
    PF - Gasol / Mirotic
    C - Noah / Gibson

    In this East? In this NBA? With the GOAT? Healthy Derrick Rose? Not only does their defense get better, they get the playmaking, and best volume scoring, late game clutch ability possible of all-time.

    This team wins 67 - 74 games, eventual champions.

    With Pippen?

    PG - D. Rose / Brooks
    SG - Butler / Hinrich
    SF - Pippen / MCD / Dunleavy
    PF - Gasol / Mirotic
    C - Noah / Gibson

    This team wins 58 - 65 games, NBA Finalists, possible champs.

    Prime PIP + healthy rose

    Lebron and the cavs ain't getting past this team. Even harder when Gasol contributes.

    2015 Champs easily.

    Lets keep it 100, if Rose is healthy either Jordan or Pippen is taking that team to the finals and winning a chip.

    The East, while projected to improve this upcoming year, is still mediocre. You add any legit top 50 player to an already seasoned Bulls team, they're in the green like a crouton.

    Pretty much

    If no serious injuries, 100% champions. Winning 65-70 is expected, might even go 70+.

    Any legit top 30 player IMO and they will reach the finals. This team looks way too stack. Give them a legitimate hall of fame wing like 2006 wade and they win 58-62 games easily and have a comfortable ride through the playoffs IMO

    If they were really hell bent on it, that team would win more than 72 games IMO.

    Championship is a given.
