Seriously though I picked the Bulls 4-2. Chicago has Jordan, game over.

I think the Bulls play the Warriors style slightly better than the Warriors play the Bulls style. Generally I think the matchup would be even but Id take MJ in a close game over Curry.

Bulls in 7.

Having Steph and Klay should be good enough to win 2 games. I know Pippen and Jordan were all world defenders, but even they never played against shooters as good as those two. I think the Warriors small ball lineup and depth could benefit them an extra game at some point.

Overall though, the Bulls have Jordan. There are plausible situations where the Warriors could swing the series into their favor, but I wouldn't bank on it. The Warriors would make it an interesting series though.

I will go with Bulls 4-2 just because Bulls team had 3 top Defenders and can shoot the ball and they have the best player and coach of all time. I dont think GS would be strong enough to hang. They would win at least 1-2 games at him.

I'll take the Warriors in 4. Those Bulls players are in their mid 50's. :D

Imo it depends which rules it was played under.

Say today's rules? Probably Warriors.
90's rules? Definitely Bulls.

Just on a playground playing pure basketball? I'd probably take the Bulls in 5 maybe 6.

Ill go with GS cause Im tired of old grouchy guys like Pippen having to dis-respect the Warriors, instead of just appreciating that they are also an all time great team.....the "Back in my day" mentality is trash

And I dont buy the theory that "Pippen would shut down Curry".

Lebron is an all world defensive player that didnt exactly shut down the Warriors last season

Bigger as in Height bigger or bigger as in they weight more? i'm confused lol the height is almost the same

Both. The Bulls, by position are about 2 inches taller and weigh about 10 -15 pounds more. Comparing best players, MJ was 3 inches taller than Steph and weighed about 26 lbs. more and Pippen is an inch taller than Thompson and weighs about 13 ponds more.

Bulls win, and would win it every time. Maybe 4-0 or maybe 4-3.

I get the comparisons because of the number of regular season wins but the Warriors haven't won it all yet and even if they do, the Bulls were, will be and are simply better because..MJ. His defense would shut Curry down when they needed it. The bulls ensemble is/was better too.

Which would be the Bulls, imo. Although, I will say this. The rules that the games were played under would make a difference.

If the series is played under '95-'96 rules, I think the Bulls might take it in 5. If it's played under today's rules, then I think it's a much closer series and the Bulls win it in 6 or 7 close games, but it wouldn't shock me if the Warriors took the series in 7.
