Who's the 3rd GOAT behind Jordan and LeBron?

They could play hack a Rodman and beat them by 20 seriously

Might be the Warriors best bet. If it came down to it, they would just bench Rodman, and Kukoc would have to play more.
 
It would take the Dream Team 7 games to beat Golden State? Are you on crack?
.No I said the Warriors I think win 2 games in a 7 Game series. So 4-2 Dream Team. And that’s because of the bench
 
Can’t really compare what the Rockets did because I think the SuperSonics took 2 off the Bulls and the Sonics were trash

Either you are trolling or are just ignorant of NBA history. That Seattle team was a 64 win team with Shawn Kemp, Hersey Hawkins, Ervin Johnson, Gary Payton, Sam Perkins, and Detlev Schrempf. To say they were trash is absurd.
 
I’m 38, and listen if you have Rose colored glasses on then you want see what your doing. Durant is has been the 2nd best player in the league for a while now, Pippen wasn’t even top 10 when he was playing but you put them equal, Thompson is very good player also that you have down graded to Harper status. Of course you agree with Jordan murdering his. Praising Rodman. Listen I know Jordan is great , and Pippen and Rodman are great also but

Bruh, I'm talking about the Bulls defense against the Warriors offense. You do realize that Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman were all top 10, if not top 5, defensive players in 96, right? Jordan and Rodman were both DPOYs and Pippen was top 5 of his era on defense. Throw in Harper and you're dealing with a nightmare.

I haven't even discussed how the Warriors would defend Jordan(hint...they can't).

Compared to Bulls they were trash, Pippen, Jordan and Rodman are better than the top player off of the Sonics in Payton who may be top 100 player and Kemp was a top 5 dunker which gets you nothing with me, and the rest were role players, so either your trolling or trying to hype up something that’s not

In six trips to the Finals Jordan never went to a game 7. The Bulls at their peak would destroy this GS team. Besides scoring at will Jordan is one of the greatest trash talkers of all time. His ability to get inside opposing players heads and disrupt their game is legendary. The Bulls would put MJ on Curry and Curry would not win that match up, he simply wouldn't. They would put Pippen on KD and Pippen's defense would slow KD down significantly. Meanwhile Rodman would be grabing 22 boards. Coaching edge also goes to the Bulls having one of the greatest coaches of all time.

Exactly. GSW has struggled at various times in the playoffs over the last few years. The areas where they have problems is mental and physical. Teams that get physical with Steph and Klay tend to throw those guys off a bit. Steph's body language tends to lose confidence when he's struggling and KD becomes unsure and passive many times. That Bulls team would not only be physical but would mentally terrorize those guys lol.

I'm not trying to discredit the Warriors as I do think they are one of the best teams in history. It's just that the Bulls were not only better but stylistically a problem for GSW. The 01 Lakers? The Warriors might run them off the floor(Kobe & Shaq might also combine for 500pts tho). The Showtime Lakers or 80s Celtics? Yeah that 3ball is going to be tough for them to deal with. But the 96 Bulls? They can deal with it just fine.

The Bulls over the course of a series would mentally rape them. Watch this short clip then listen to what Rodman says at the end.

Ok your mind is made up. And I agree with you on some thing you agree with me on nothing. I think The Warriors offense is better and the Bulls defense is better or you think the Bulls are better all around.

The last 2 years that they have had Durant and that’s what we are comparing 2017 they sweep Blazers, sweep Jazz, Sweep Spurs, and 4-1 Cavs. 2018 they 4-1 Spurs, 4-1 Pelicans. Here is where you arguement is off of they 4-3 Rockets and 4-0 the Cavs . So I’m not seeing the struggle they sweep half and 4-1 almost the other half. And then the Rockets took 3.

Ok

Its opinions and yours is very high on the Bulls

I'm not even a Bulls fan. That team simply had it all...offense, defense, psychology, chemistry, leadership, coaching, etc. What's more is they proved it by three-peating, and then dropping the mic.

Jordan - best scorer in the league, top 5 defender, most clutch player in history of the game

Pippen - top notch scorer, top 5 defender, perfect second scoring option

Rodman - best enforcer and rebounder in the league, infamous for throwing opponents off their games

Kukoc - best 6th man in the league, great rover, could fit in at almost position

Kerr - best 3pt/free throw specialist of his time

Harper - serviceable point guard, could distribute the ball and score well, knew how to blend in

Longley/Wennington - big bodies to protect the rim, pick up fouls, etc

Phil - arguably GOAT coach

You just talked up some trash. Yes Jordan you were spot on, Pippen and Rodman was on as well, but Harper wasn’t a serviceable point guard he average maybe 3 assist and Longely/Wennington were trash you could say that about the Warriors Center

Harper was serviceable for the triangle offense that didn't require him to set up teammates with assists. Harper's real value was on the defensive end. Being a 6'6 good defender at point gaurd spot made the Bulls a nightmare. The combination of Harper, Jordan, Rodman, and Pippen would terrorize opponents when they decided to press full court. The Magic could barely get the ball over half court against them that year. They had Penny Hardaway barely able to dribble at times.

Ok so you have said a lot about Pippen Jordan Rodman Harper , but the way you talk about the Warriors team you think Curry and Durant are overrated, you have discredited Thompson and I don’t think you have even mentioned Green who is DPOY 2017. And a few all defensive teams

You said stylistically. I think the Bulls were stylistically bad match - ups for Strong Centers or Power Forward. But they beat all of them so they really were stylistically bad match for anybody. Not sure what you basing this off of.

which team in history is stylistically bad for the Bulls
 
Actually I'm a Kobe fan and had to go through the Kobe vs MJ thing during his prime. And Jordan fans are indeed ridiculous so please...stop preaching to the choir.

And by this post I can tell you are pretty young and didn't actually watch the Bulls play. Jordan would guard Curry, not Harper. Curry, due to his constant movement, would get some open shots against Jordan and possibly catch fire and go for 40+. But he's going to have to deal with Jordan's physicality and as we've seen Steph doesn't do well with physicality. Also, Jordan routinely shut down Reggie Miller who constantly moved without the ball and ran around screens to get open shots like Curry does. Not quite as good as Curry but comparable.

Durant absolutely does not murder Pippen. The combination of Pippen, Rodman, and Jordan switching and taking turns on KD would slow him down if not completely shut him down. Remember, there are a lot of times KD becomes quiet or ineffective even without great defense. And Harper could guard Thompson just fine.
And I don’t think Jordan left really good SG to play great PG. so to say he would stick Curry and leave Kerr and Harper to guard Thompson I don’t think happens, majority of the time he stuck Dumars not Thomas just for reference. When the SG was not all-star level yes he would switch but I think he stays on Klay
