Yeah, their mindset was crazy because of Mike. They entered the court WANTING the fight and a lot of teams looked down even before the ball was thrown up. There is no team that good on defense, maybe the 89 Pistons come close but they were beating the shit out of people and the Bulls didn't need that.

As a kid from Chicago growing up in the 80's and 90's, watching MJ and Pip running the Bulls getting them chips was beautiful times like no other. The 96 Bulss are easily the greatest team ever.💯

Now if we could time travel those bulls in recent times and do the same according to todays rules....the contest would be an actual contest ,the warriors would have an easier time getting their shot off but the sheer physicality and defense would ultimately wear them down and lose probably in 6....thats best case scenario for them...

Hey shade0180 I am simply old school ( old skool ) lol and I will never stop being a Laker fan but those Bulls back in the 90’s and it wasn’t a easy thing to do back then. Vs Those Pacers, Knicks Orlando Magic and the East was packed with hall of famers and talent 😳 Shade I been watching basketball for a long time and I know a good team when I see one. But I just don’t see any real solid teams now a days, but the teams of today are simply missing something or maybe it is just me. ( Shucks ) I’ll say it is just me, but it just seems like there is something missing in todays NBA & at first I thought that it was just me getting older, but MJ didn’t star in the latest Space Jam for a reason & I think he feels the same way that I do deep down inside. I am so happy that they decided to release The Last Dance, because that just touched on the struggles of that entire team as a whole. What you think ? And I promise you that I am not a MJ fan, but this is a thing called respect ✌🏾

Would love to watch Rodman work over Dremon which is exactly what would happen.

I just don’t believe that there is another team better than the 90’s Bulls and I am a die hard Laker fan. I don’t believe any of the Steph Curry led teams would even come close to the Bulls period. If you play by the old school rules, then clearly the Bulls would crush todays Golden State Warriors but if you even play by the new rules of today, who is going to guard MJ & stop MJ from averaging about 55 points per game ( & I am being modest here ) then you still have Scottie Pippen who will average at least 35 points vs this no defense playing Warriors Team and they allow those guys to play 2 : 3 zones 😳 & that is not real defense at all.

Exactly... Hell, there are SEVERAL other TEAMS I can think of from MJ's era, that would wreak havoc on today's Warriors, particularly under the old rules: the '96 Magic, Shaq & Kobe's Lakers, Hakeem's Rockets, let alone MJ's Bulls LOL!! I keep telling these Gen Z kids that the Warriors style of play, ONLY works in this era, due to the current rules and how teams are now constructed. And many of 'em are starting to realize it. I point out HOW OFTEN that teams who played that style got exposed in the playoffs in the 80s/90s, particularly when facing good/great defensive teams. I also remind them that it took for a CP3 hamstring injury and 7 whole games, just for the KD Warriors to be able to beat him and James Harden's NO DEFENSE playing Rockets LOL!! I explain to them that they'd get exposed for a couple of reasons: 1) the top tier teams back then were more balanced with good/great/dominant frontlines/post players, to go along w/ good/great perimeter shooting to make you pay for double/triple teaming their post guys 2) the rules allowed for more physical play, particularly on the perimeter. There was no "freedom of movement" back then; perimeter defenders were allowed to hand-check/forearm you to death, where they'd be able to get up on/under you, preventing you from consistently getting open looks, which made things THAT MUCH HARDER for a perimeter-oriented team. Under those circumstances, a team would REALLY have to work much harder to CONSISTENTLY get open looks to create good shots for themselves or for a teammate. This would be a NIGHTMARE for a team like Golden State to have to contend w/ on a NIGHTLY basis. Especially if they were facing a team w/ good/great post play(ers), surrounded by quality perimeter shooters.

the bulls were uniquely suited to stretching the floor and playing small ball--without actually going that small--with rodman as the center and Kukoc at the 4 (and kerr and buechler as 3 pt guys--imagine if they could keep BJ too). kukoc was the only defensive liability

MJ 63pts against Celtics am I joke to u? And if he today's rules how many points will MJ makes?

The bulls were almost perfectly built to play that warriors team

Rodman was the Rock Lee of the 96 Bulls!!!!

Better than the Warriors. They had the shut down defensive length to push the Warriors around.

Steve Kerr is the only player I know of to shoot 50% from deep THREE different years, two of those in a row for the Bulls.

The 2017 Warriors wouldn’t know what to do against that much elite defense. They’d be dumbfounded. They’d be thrown off their game and would be very inconsistent. They wouldn’t look like themselves and wouldn’t be able to adjust. And they certainly couldn’t guard MJ at all. 96 Bulls in 5…maybe 6 at the very most.

Were the 72 Dolphins better than Tom Brady's undefeated regular season Patriots? Yep, because they went undefeated and won the Superbowl. The Patriots lost in the Superbowl that year disqualifying the Patriots as the greatest team ever.

You really can’t compare the two eras. The teams were built differently regarding the style of play. 90s was about centers, triangle offense etc. Today it’s about the three as the first option. 90s bulls would foul out today due to physical play. Todays Warriors would have a hard time getting 3s back then because of forearms, hand checks, hand being part of the ball etc.

You can't be the greatest team of all time if you lose in the championship, you only have the best season record. Every year a team has a season best records, but in order to be the greatest team you have to win the championship! Oh and you can't put Kevin Durant on that Warriors team, the 73-9 Warriors did not have Durant on their rooster. People keep putting Durant in the conversation. It's the 73-9 Warriors vs the 72-10 Bulls...Durant wasn't on that 73-9 team!

When you think about how much KD struggles against elite defense in the playoffs, Bulls in 6 at worse is beyound a safe bet.

1996 Chicago Bulls win in 5 or 6 against the GS warriors with Durant. The matchup I'd rather see is that GS team against = THE BAD BOY PISTONS!!!!!!! THAT would be FUN!!!!!! lol!!

Damn right the 96 Bulls are the best. Absolutely. Just because the warriors won ONE more game, they LOST the Championship. Bulls didn't. Bulls won it all. They would stomp the warriors.

People today underestimate defence. I always say that you can ALWAYS count on defence. Even if your OFFENSE isn't going the way you want to. So stopping the opponent first is priority. Then think about scoring. This system is much better than counting on offence only because you can have an off-night shooting. Defence will NEVER let you down.

WHAT TIME IS IT!!!!! GAMETIME WOOOOOO!!!!!!! GREATEST OF ALL TIME 96 BULLS THE UN-BEATABULLS!!!! IT DONT MEAN A THING IF YOU DONT WIN THE RING!!!!!!

The Bulls are better that the Warriors three words Defense , MJ , Ring , with the 72-10 record the Warriors no ring the end .

your trying to imagine how these teams would match up, but your left out Mr. Jackson. I'm sure he has his own way of looking at all these ideas.
