Gotta agree with coolcras7 just because the bulls were dominate doesn't mean that there weren't great teams in the 90's and the bulls didn't start out great they had to take their licks and earn their stripes

I never said that there weren't great teams in the 90's, only that the 80's ones were better

It's sad how people try to diminish the greatness of a team or player after the fact stop the bull**** comparisons and let history stand as it is

it's a debate, Jordan started it

I am going to share again this very interesting and nice read about the Bulls, which I happen to agree with. Mainly because I saw many of the teams mentioned actually play back in the day.

the 96 bulls is the greatest nba team for me. you got the rejuvenated michael jordan, the reliable partner pippen and the defensive force rodman, and the ever inspired bulls teammates. yall can say these 70s or 80s or 90s other teams can beat da bulls but how? make them play a 7 game nba finals series? against them 87 and 72 lakers, 86 celtics, and 67 sixers? ha!

bulls win some and lose some. pippen and rodman can be stopped and be rendered useless. but when da game is on the line especially in crucial moments yall cant contain michael jordan specially that unstoppabull michael jordan of 1996. you just cant.

jordan will just never lose in the nba finals against any other team you consider great.

it's incredible the amout of ignorant posts here, make some sense, not just because...
"but how?" basically with the great teams they had
and stop talking about Jordan this and that, we're talking about teams, one man can only do so much, even if it's Jordan

^ Looks like you just recently joined (September 2011). I'd cool it with the "ignorant" references and comments. That's not cool.

if you disagree to posts made in this forums you always call them ignorant posts. yall want people to agree to what you believe in. youre the one who dont make sense.

96 bulls are the greatest because aside from having the greatest player to ever play they play smarter basketball than the rest of the other great teams. and when they (bulls with jordan) get to the finals they just wont lose.

I honestly dont care for this discussion but im warning everyone in here right now, that if you cannot make your point without degrading other people's opinions and continually referencing them as being ignorant because they dont agree with you, then you will be taking a long break from the forums

very good commercial, but think it would have been nice if after he mentioned his favorite the 96 Bulls they showed them in the game and then a few other teams and then show him say you decide. Nice touch though 2k..those 96 Bulls would be tough to handle, especially in a 7 game series

Re: NBA 2K Debate, Michael Jordan Invitation - Pick Squad, Upload Video, End the Deba

I'm going to say something that makes no sense at all, yet it makes sense:

I think the '86 Celtics and the '87 Lakers were better than the '96 Bulls. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if the Bulls could beat either team in a 7 game series. Why? I believe in my own two eyes, and I never saw MJ lose a Finals series. I think he would go down guns blazing if it went to a game 7, willing his team to a victory.

Now, as far as the league being "watered down" in 1995-96: you can't help who you play. The Bulls played 82 regular season games and won 72 of them--72! They received the schedule from the NBA and then proceeded to whoop butt.

For those who disagree, look at it this way: I BLEED Tar Heel blue, and although I hate that Duke won in 2010, I take absolutely nothing away from them. Duke by far had the EASIEST road to the Final Four I've seen in quite sometime, but it's like I said before--you can't help who you play. Duke beat everyone in front of them, much like the Bulls of 1996.

That last sentence is good and all, but heres the kicker....do you conisder the 2010 Duke Blue Devils to be on of the Top 3 greatest teams ever, just like the consensus here about the '95-'96 Bulls...???

1995-96 Bulls, not the best team ever IMO, record don't mean all that when you put them against all time great teams, sorry MJ! If we're going by accomplishments then the Bill Russell's Celtics are the best and I don't think they're the best either.
Just can't see them winning against the 80's Celtics and Lakers, maybe not even the 00's Lakers, in a seven game series, but hey, who knows right?

Pretty good read and agree with most of it but I think he should quit while he was ahead, a lot of his Scottie Pippen was overrated as a Bull stuff contradicts his the 91-92 Bulls were better because Scottie was better.
