I can't answer that because I'm biased but I imagine it will go back to arguing between the 96 Bulls, 86 Celtics and this Warriors team. The Warriors excuse is that their MVP was never the same after being hurt but I think this team just didn't look the same as the playoffs went on. As a Bulls fan I will say something like 'yeah the Bulls only won 72, but they then breezed to the title, going 15-3. The Warriors won 73 but it took so much out of them they struggled through the playoffs and eventually fell one game short.' How much of an argument does the 2000 Lakers have. 56-26 regular season, but 15-1 in playoffs with 9 double digit wins. Bulls had as many double digit wins in the playoffs in 96. 2000 Lakers reminds me of 91 Bulls. They were pretty good in regular season, but they dominated when it came to the playoffs (Bulls had 10 double digit wins and both losses were by 2 pts each).
