How many of MJ’s Bulls teams win the tile in 2022?

I do think the OP should have added 0 as an option, even if he thinks it is unrealistic. You have to know there are always people who denigrate every basketball era before theirs, realistically or not.

91-93 and 98 lose if you don't let them swap out a few role players for shooters, 96 and 97 would be a toss up. If you let them slightly adjust their rosters then every team but 98 would beat the Warriors.

Just imagining how the Bulls would go small with either Grant or Rodman at the 5 and absolutely break the league with defense/spacing. This idea that dudes like BJ Armstrong would be unplayable in 2022 is pretty hilarious when guys like Pat Beverly are starting for playoff teams.

Started for a pretty low level playoff team though...

Not really sure how BJ ranks defensively in today's league but Beverly is probably one of the better perimeter guards in today's game atleast in small minutes. Regardless of his offensive game if he's at all exploitable on defense you basically can't play him reliable minutes after the first round one you matchup with real teams.

No, but then they put Darrell Walker out there in 93 and Randy Brown in the later threepeat.
The Bulls play a five of Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, Randy Brown, and Harper you wind up with 5 switchable guys and the Warriors or any team struggle to score.
They also have Brad Sellers early on who maybe becomes a star in modern ball - a big who can score and is pretty mobile.

What happens is who plays for the Bulls changes and who they keep and trade does as well- Kukoc plays more in the second team with centers not playing.
The 89 team doesnt trade for Cartwright, they probably keep Oakley and play he and HoGrant as bigs
Kerr, Hodges, Paxson of course play more as shooters.
They have Trent Tucker, a real good shooter in 93, who is better defensively than Hodges.

0 if you transplant them, but since they'd have time to learn and presumably pick up additional 3pt specialists as role players, I think 92, 96, 97 win at a minimum.

this is a though question to answer cause you probably
-cannot- win a ring in 2022 playing 90's basketball, the self imposed handicaps are too big

like not being accostumed to defending pace and space ball or being accostumed to practicing and taking midrange plays amd few 3's, using post ups that are easier to defend than ever without illegal D and little spread pick and roll

if the question is more like "which bulls teams were more dominant for their era than the 2022 warriors in theirs" that is a interesting question

i probably would go with 91-92,96-97 but it would be guessing
