The Bulls were lucky to never face the Rockets in the NBA Finals. Olajuwon was a stronger opponent than the big guys Jordan faced in NBA Finals: Malone, Kemp and Barkley. Jordan got lucky to win his 6 NBA titles. Jordan never faced a strong team in the NBA Finals. |
Zuh? Karl Malone and the Jazz beat Hakeem in the playoffs, so did Kemp ... so that means what exactly?
Bulls had no problem handling teams with size, they dealt with the Knicks who were punishing upfront with Ewing/Oakley/Mason/etc. and then Shaq/Grant as well, not to mention the Bad Boy Pistons in '91.
Bulls were always a big team themselves.
Rockets wouldn't have two titles if MJ hadn't retired.
