This is very interesting. It's an article about what it would be like if the all time Bulls squad stepped up against the all time Celtics squad and also the all time Rockets team against the all time Lakers team.Cousy inbounded to Bird, who drove to the right baseline with Jordan in his hip pocket. Falling to his right, almost out of bounds, Bird arced it high, and ... yes ... through the net with 5.2 seconds left. His 41st and 42nd points.Time out on the floor.Bulls' ball. Jordan, with 42 points of his own, takes the inbound from Bob Love. He's at the top of the key. Tongue wagging. Four ... three ... he drives past Havlicek and down the lane ... two ...He has liftoff ... One second ...... and lofts a jumper while falling to his right ...And ... and ...It's blocked.Blocked!Clean block!"Haven't I seen you somewhere before?" says a gassed Mike Newlin, trying to keep up."NBA silhouette logo," says West, striking that very pose as he drives to the bucket for his own layup.http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...e=murphy/060509
When you take a 20 year break from the finals, don't be expected to be called the best franchise in history.

1. They definitely should have had the Celtics/Lakers play. 2. Jordan in the clutch is money, this article is disrespecting Michael's greatness

Kobe is in his prime, as is Lamar, and Kwame is a f*cking joke. We have Orion Greene, Al Jefferson, Kendrick Perkins, Gerald Green, Ryan Gomes and Delonte West.
