Which NBA team could have beaten the Jordan Bulls 1991-98?

Other than the 95 Magic, maybe the 98 Pacers? 97 Jazz?
11

Just during that era? Or a team from any era?
But the Rockets from 94-95 with Hakeem were really good. MJ picked a very nice time to take a year or two off.

If it hadn’t been the Rockets, the Suns were top notch those years. Barkley prime.

In that era or any era? In the modern era they couldn’t compete with the warriors with KD, Kalyan, and Steph all in their prime. I think the prime Lebron and Wade and Bosh heat team would handle them as well.

The ‘17 warriors would take them to the deep end and drown them

I was a huge Rockets fan at the time, and would loved to have seen a series against the Bulls and Jordan. The '95 team with Drexler was more talented, but the '94 team with Vernon Maxwell matched up better with the Bulls. That said, I think the Bulls take them either year.

Just that 90s era.

It is a silly premise. Are you going to assume the Bulls players were not raised in the same time frame as current players, thus developing games to match?
Regardless, in any era, that Heat team that managed to go 2-2 in the Finals isn't beating the Bulls.

2023 Nuggets would have beaten the worst team during that time period. Maybe.

The Pacers in 98 took them to 7 games, so they have to be the most obvious answer.

question seems unnecessary as this played out in reality.

The 2001 Lakers were pretty special. They had a playoff record of 15-1 that year in a great Western conference. I think that team could have.

I feel like the Bulls would struggle mightily to learn defense or adjust to the defenses of today and all the nuances that come with that.
MJ wouldn’t be out here playing 1 on 1 and would have WAY more responsibilities on defense.

The defensive rules are more relaxed now. Don’t you think MJ and Pip would be even more effective with the freedom to roam so much more?

Anyone with a decent curveball.

That’s the year they lost game 1 vs Iverson right?

yep...and the west was so strong that year it was a forgone conclusion whoever came out of there was winning the whole thing.

I like the idea of putting my superior athletes on the opposing team’s 2(and only?) best ball handlers/scorers and taking them out of the game.
We don’t know if Jordan and them were capable or willing to play modern defense and run with guy’s like Steph. Let’s keep them in their little 1 on 1 situations.
