2022 NBA Offseason thread

You forget about Harper? Rodman? They had those 2 to go along with MJ and Pippen.

Indeed. In 1996 that team was one of the five best teams ever, just like the 2017 Warriors. They had Kukoc too.

The Warriors lost in the Finals, the Bulls did not.

The Dubs are the 2007 Patriots.

The Bulls are the 1972 Dolphins.

Both teams had monumental accomplishments.

I can't speak for anyone else.

But, for me, the Team that won it all stands above.

It's not the Bulls AND the Warriors.

It's the Bulls THEN the Warriors.

Sure, there's no right answer comparing greatest teams from different eras. The KD Warriors only lost the finals because everyone got hurt. Notice the years discussed...the 1998 Bulls were old and barely got through. The 1996 team was better just like the 2017 Ws were better than the 2019 Ws.

Add the 1985 Lakers and 1986 Celtics to the discussion, we can't really say who's "best" just like when we make lists of best players. There's no right or wrong answers.


But you're wrong and I'm right

When you look greatest team of all time, it is 1 year that matters. That is it.

Body of work would be the best dynasty. And if we are talking dynasties, Bulls and Celtics are at the top no question.

But best single team?

The 2017 Warriors didn’t lose in the Finals. Nor did the ‘96 Bulls

96 Bulls - 4.5

BOOM.

That '96 Bulls team was loaded with defenders.

Not just MJ and Pipp.

It's a Twisted Tea kind of night.

I meant the 2016 Dubs.

73-9 Team that didn't win it all is not superior to a 72-10 team that did.

I am one of those fans were the further we get from Jordan's playing days, the bigger his accomplishments become.

I recognize this in myself.

But, I can't bring myself to stop it....lol

No but that first year with KD where they went 15-1 in the playoffs, that team was every bit as good as the 1996 Bulls. Without KD of course they weren't.

Of course not.

It is the 2017 team with KD that gets discussed in the GOAT team debate. 2016 isn’t in that conversation.

Takes 16 wins to garner the NBA title.

Trae Young talking shit over something that took place in a Seattle Proam league? Lol

Thanks for the tip. And whoosh.

I guess he thought you didn't know even though you clearly said 15-1 which equals 16 lol

I thought team rookie was more impressive the other day.

No more Rick Flair.

That was just.....sad.

But, as much as I hate to say it.....

Logan Paul was.......pretty good.

Flair was forced to retire in wwe, twice

He got to go out on his own terms.

I can’t hate too much on that

And he got to do it with his son in law
