Biggest luxury: Having the two best scorers or defenders on same team?
2 best scorers in league history:
Warriors have Curry and Durant on the same team
2 best defenders in league history:
The Bulls had Pippen and Rodman on the same team
Who has/had the biggest luxury, the Warriors or Bulls?

Oh cool! Another interesting take from a Bronsexual. Let's see if throwing this at the wall will stick?

How old was Rodman in Chicago?
Also, why were the Bulls looking to trade him in 97 and 98?
Or rather, why was he coming off the bench?

Because after the 96 finals, MJ talked with Krause about how he didn't want a teammate to have a chance at stealing his FMVP ever again.

Sports media certainly wasn't kind to Rodman, idk if that has anything to do with Krause

This historical account has been largely obfuscated by David "I know where the bodies are buried" Stern.

Re: Biggest luxury: Having the two best scorers or defenders on same team?
Biggest luxury is having the two best players besides yourself in a pathetically weak conference.
It makes getting to the Finals a cupcake walk.
And nothing remotely special. And then when facing real competition in the Finals going 3 for 8.
