Bulls have 2 in Pippen and MJ Lakers have advantage in the other 3 spots but we have the all time best so Bulls win. Here is the best question Who gets Phil? Thats a big advantage.Point was they never played each other when both were in their prime. Poorly worded on my part.
Based on career shooting percentages, Kobe was the best 3 point shooter out of all of them. Pippen and Rodman aren't doing anything to stop Kareem or Shaq. I also doubt Pippen would have much success vs. Magic in his prime.
On top of that, you have a team with 5 guys in the top 10-15 players of all time vs. a team with one guy in that range (granted, arguably the GOAT) and a second guy who's in the top 50 and might be in the top 25.
I get that you're a Bulls fan, but the advantage is pretty clear. The only player winning his matchup for the Bulls is MJ.
How would magic play in the triangle?Pippen did a dam good job defensively on anyone he faced. Magic in 1991 wasn't true Magic, but Pippen owned his ass in that series so it could happen.
Key word there is could. And a huge advantage on offense for Lakers against THE only team to ever have 3 All NBA 1st team all defensive players on one team... Defense always wins championships man. The advantage the Lakers have is in the post and Magic will always have good ball movement on offense which can breakdown a good defense.
A great defense??
got to put Noah in there. He would hold his own against any center. He should be on the bench and S. Kerr hitting 3's. Take bulls every day of the week.
Magic 97 DRose 92---Magic
Kobe 94 MJ 99----MJ
Baylor 93 Pippen 94---tie or Pip
Kareem 90 Rodman 84---Kareem
Wilit 95 Gilmore 78---Wilt
Bench lol
Lakers easy

Pippen isn't doing anything with Elgin. Elgin was Dr. J before Dr. J was Dr. J.
Y'all can have Phil. Lakers will do just fine with Pat Riley, thank you very much.

LOL Pat riley so overrated. U can have him. Bulls win in 7.Pippen isn't doing anything with Elgin. Elgin was Dr. J before Dr. J was Dr. J.

Nope Noah can be on the bench. He does all the little things. Yes can't score but he was defensive player of the year a nice energy player to have. Him and rodman in the game , we would grab almost every rebound.joking right?
LOL Pat riley so overrated. U can have him. Bulls win in 7.
5 rings 1 as an assistant and 3 as a president and 1 as a player(a lot of rings overall). As a head coach I think he is overrated. After 1988 he didn't do anything until 2006 when he jumped in as coach. Yes overrated. I think he is a good president/executive.Yeah, 8 rings is very overrated.
I think it would be a good match up but I just don't see Lakers stopping the Bulls on offense. Bulls would have offense and Defense. Lakers have no one to stop MJ. pippen would be able to guard Kobe or even MJ. Rose(Healthy) would be a nice match up for Magic. Magic would win the battle but not as much as people think. Bulls would be able to rebound but I will say Bulls would struggle with Lakers inside game. The good thing late in the 4th you do hack a shaq and that is where the Bulls would take over. Plus most of the Top Bulls have played together.
I go Bulls would win in a best of 7 4-3. It would be a great match up. MJ never lost in the Finals so I think u have to give the Bulls the Edge. Game on the Line MJ will find a way.
Nope just stating facts. Did you get hit on the head.Are you high? Really?

Only stupid people would bet against MJ in basketball on the Big stage.
Nope I looked at both teams overall game and Bulls are a better team because they can do a little bit of everything and they are a better defensive team with the best coach in basketball history with the best player ever. Its easy to pick them.Only stupid people would think a team with 1 guy in the top 10-15 all time and 1 in the top 25 (maybe) all time could beat a team with 5 players in the top 10-15 all time.
