Lets pan this out a bit player for player talent wise who wins in best of 7 with all healthy players? I know this current lakers squad only won 1 so far but are we comparable to those awesome 90's bulls?

Kobe Lakers in 5

back then, Bulls relied mainly on the one-two punch of scottie and MJ. we all know for a fact that shooting from the field can't beat the percentages compared to shooting from the paint. We have PAU and Bynum and they had Longley correct? Anyways, I also think our D is much better. But i give the bulls one game hehe.

Man, imagine kobes' prime vs. MJs' prime.

Guys let's keep real. We're talking about a team that read newspapers in the bench while they routinely massacred the opposition. I'm also happy that we won, but I don't think we win more than 2 vs MJ and company (likely 0 or 1).

I don't know if you're old enough to remember MJ play or if you can find film footage of him through out games as that might be an indicator. MJ was a ruthless defender. And like Kobe was a straight killer out there on the court. As much as I love 24 I got to give it to 23 in a one on one match up.

And the Chicago bulls of the 90's would kill this Laker team. This 09' Laker and last year's Celtics team is more of a suitable match up. But this team would lose 4-2 to the Bulls. (At best they win 2 games) The Bulls were not just the beasts of the league then but were a juggernaut through out the 90's with Michael Jordan leading that dynasty.

This is Laker team does not have the intensity that the Bulls had.

The 2001 Lakers or 2000 with Horry, Grant, Harper would have had a better chance but two of the players were once bulls

Bulls 4-1 Lakers, period

People just forget how defensive the greatest Chicago Bulls team was, not mentioning their offensive weapons

lmao on Bynum and Gasol will own Rodman and Luc

Does anyone recall how Rodman was single handedly guarding Shaq? If you do, then you know that Rodman will make Gasol playing like a girl

This year's lakers is great, but if you compare them with the greatest Chicago Bulls, consider yourself arrogant and naive.
Everyone has a right to be stupid. Some just abuse the privilege.

Rodman would itch slap Pau back to Spain. Enough said.
