Re: Who Could beat the '98 Bulls? I've said this many times and I stand by it: the 1967 76ers could beat the 98 Bulls. The 1983 Sixer team is more popular but the 67 team was better im my opinion. Also, any Lakers team from 1980-1987 could stand pretty well against chicago, that would be a good series to watch.The 1972 Lakers as well could take on those Bulls too. I'd say the Russell Celtics of 1959-1966 but, I'm starting to have my doubts on whether they could beat chicago.
