Let’s say the two greatest teams ever assembled were going to square off in a seven-game series: who would you take? The 2017 Golden State Warriors and the 1996 Chicago Bulls are arguably the best teams in NBA history.
The Warriors coming off a 73-9 regular season in 2016, added one of the best players in the world, Kevin Durant, to their 2017 roster. Meanwhile, the 1996 Chicago Bulls had a 70-12 record and had arguably the best player of all time, Michael Jordan.
The Golden State Warriors have had one of the best dynasties of all time, but at their peak, do they down Michael Jordan’s dominant Chicago Bulls?
