I wish we could redo that All time NBA draft or whatever, except with a way shorter season and 2/3 game series for playoffs. I know thats kind of off topic, but just a random thought I had.
Anyway, my vote goes to the 72-10 bulls.

Best NBA team of all-time?

1. 1st year of revamped roster

3. Would beat Dallas in 5, a team that nearly dominated the West in the playoffs and appeared unbeatable. Has held them to under 90 per game.
I really don't see an all-time great team this Heat team would struggle against. Their offense isn't the greatest, but they an really lock teams down. The Wade/James vs. Jordan/Pippen matchup would be insane.
The Kobe/Shaq matchup would probably be the most difficult but they have surprisingly done well against solid rebounding teams.
No

'95-'96 Chicago Bulls
'85-'86 Boston Celtics
That Laker team (I forgot which one) that won 30+ in a row or something
'86-'87 Los Angeles Lakers
Today's Miami Heat
One of the '60's Celtics teams
Or somebody else
Yeah f**king right. Not even close to being worth a s**t. It's an insult to these teams mentioned above

Lol, tell us how you really feel.
They weren't THAT bad...best team ever? No. But I wouldn't say they're not worth a s**t. They did beat a 62 win team with the MVP w/o HCA in 5 in the ECF and a team whose core had won 37 playoff games over the previous 3 years in 5 the semis. They're still likely one of the top 10 or 15 teams of the past decade.[ Edited by andes14 on Jun 12, 2011 at 22:35:35 ]

Usually to be considered the best you have to win it all. They did not, they aren't worth a s**t compared to any of the teams mentioned above

No
Why do you have to go out and bring up old s**t? This was a no after Game 5.
