Phil Jackson: Laker or Bull?

Would have been a hell of a matchup:

Ron Harper vs. Derek Fisher
Michael Jordan vs. Kobe Bryant
Scottie Pippen vs. Ron Artest
Dennis Rodman vs. Pau Gasol
Luc Longley vs. Andrew Bynum

Off the bench for the Bulls..

Toni Kukoc, Steve Kerr, and Bill Wennington

Off the bench for the Lakers..

Lamar Odom, Jordan Farmar, Shannon Brown

I would have loved to see that series. The only legit center that those 90's Bulls went up against in the playoffs was Ewing, and their guards were so-so at best. The one team that did beat them (94-95 Magic, after MJ came back in March of '95) was the only other team they faced with a legit big in Shaq. I think Gasol & a healthy Bynum would have given them issues.

The centers that the Bulls faced in the Finals were a very young Vlade Divac, Kevin Duckworth, Mark West, Ervin Johnson, & Greg Ostertag, none of whom were close to as good as the Laker bigs.

Which is exactly why you just made the argument yourself that Kobe has always had dramatically better centers than Jordan had.

Wait, so this thread about Phil Jackson turned into a Kobe vs Jordan thread?



Hmm. Go figure.

The thread says "Laker or Bull." So it has a lot to do with the best players he had when he coached the Bulls and then later on the Lakers. That comparison has something to do with whether or not he will be remembered most for being with the Bulls or the Lakers.

Pippen would guard Kobe and Artest would guard Jordan
