<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Vintage:</div><div class="quote_post">Its too bad that MJ retired. I would have loved to see Houston go against the Bulls(with MJ). That would have been one helluva finals.</div> I think everyone would have loved to see a finals between those two teams. I really think Houston would have given the Bulls a run for their money in that series. I really don't know who would have the championship. That is probably one of the greatest potential series that never happened.
Top three are 84-85 Bulls, 90-91 Bulls, and 95-96 Bulls. The first one had the most exciting installment of Money, where he played like he had springs on his feet. The team overall was lousy, but the play of one guy made it worthwhile. The '91 squad(Michael, Scottie, Ho Grant, Cartwright, Pax, B.J., Craig Hodges, Stacey King, Will Perdue, Darrell Walker, Scot Williams to name a few) had roughly the same guys as the next two teams, but played with an unbridled hunger to win. They way they tore through every team they played in the playoffs(lost once each to Barkley's Sixers and Magic's Lakers to go 15-2) was very fun to watch as well as fulfilling. As for that last team I listed, Vintage and Nets covered it for me. Vintage, I think that series you were talking about is where my favorite Scottie Pippen quote came from, when he said "The Mailman doesn't deliver on Sundays." (this after he shut down Malone on a Sunday) Classy trash talking at its best.
2003-04 Minnesota Timberwolves. Best season shaping up for Garnett, best collection of players, best team chemistry.
1985-86 Boston Celtics In my opinion, the Celtics had one of the deepest/strongest front courts in NBA history. Larry Bird Kevin McHale Robert Parish Dennis Johnson Danny Ainge Scott Wedman Bill Walton Jerry Sichting David Thirdkill Sam Vincent Sly Williams Rick Carlisle Greg Kite
