But you agree that it would come to a 7th game.

The thing is, maybe (and that's a big maybe) Jordan was past his defensive prime, but he was still 1st Team All-Defense his last 3 seasons (correct me if I'm wrong).

I could very well be underrating McHale and Worthy. I'm only 21, so I NEVER saw them play live. I've watched several replays of games and full game highlights of both teams before though. I would actually put McHale's post moves ahead of Olajuwan's. He wasn't nearly as athletic as Hakeem, but was still just as affective in the post with his moves.
Again, never actually SAW Worthy play, but I've seen several replays and clips of him to have an idea of what he can do. I do think that Rodman could at least contain him a little; at least enough to keep it close.

It's debates like this that make me wish it was possible to have a time machine and create these games. Go back to 1996, scoop up the whole 1996 Bulls team and coaching staff, then take them back to 1987, and get a game up between them and the Lakers.
