Nope, the 95-96 Bulls team is miles better and the NBA was a lot better then it is now.  You also had the team with the most losses this season since the 76ers lost 72.  I totally agree with what Pippen said a couple of month ago that Bulls team would sweep this years Warriors team in a seven game series.

The '96 Bulls had the advantage of playing TWO expansion teams that year and shared a division with one of them (and lost a game to that one, the Raptors).

I wish someone who says the NBA was a lot better then than it is now would explain to me in a quantifiable or factual sense.

Those two expansion teams where still better then this years 76ers and Lakers.  Also the Warriors lost to the Lakers in the regular season and since it happened late in the season it was the biggest differential in total wins by a team with a losing record beating a team with a winning record.  The '96 Raptors where actually a lot better then both the 76ers and Lakers they had the rookie of the year Damon Stoudamire.
