The Seattle deal for Kemp and pierce. But it was another piece to that deal. The bulls were going to get the right to swap picks with Seattle. The bulls had the 21st pick and Seattle had 11th. Krause was going to take jalen rose with the pick. So it was basically Kemp pierce and rose. Pierce was a former NBA 6th man of the year with the bucks and all star with the sonics in 91 , kemp we end up seeing in the finals a couple years later and rose we know had a really great career. Imagine Jordan coming back to that squad in 95 Jordan rose pierce kemp longley kukoc kerr and let's say krause still does that rodman deal and Ron harper.
Not only do I think that team wins the next 4 rings with jordan but they would have still had pieces in place once jordan decides to retire.
There is no way we would get Rodman if we had a starting PF that played like Kemp (if he played at the same level he did for Seatle in 95 and 96).
That is true but if you have prime Kemp and Jalen whom are both whipped into shape by MJ do you need Rodman?
I don't think you need rodman
But we still had to deal with shaq and rodman was one guy who could single cover shaq. Jordan and Phil had a relationship with rodman prior to him joining the team. Rodman was on the last nerve of the spurs so he was getting moved somewhere. So if I'm asking would krause be convinced rodman could be a good piece i think after some persuasion yes i think so..
But even without rodman you talking a core of
Harper
Jordan/rose
Pierce/kukoc
Kemp
Longley
Kerr off the bench. That is champiomship team.
