Your 2007 team gets to play the second three-peat Bulls in the Finals. Who do you put on MJ--Ginobili or Bowen? And who checks Pippen?

Bowen definitely. Start Michael Finley if need be (as he started a bunch). Love Manu but Bowen was our guy defensively (guarded Kobe, Melo, Lebron, AI, Nash, Dirk, etc)... Bowen did guard Jordan a few times btw.

Damn, didn't realize Bowen was on the Celtics back then. I knew he did a stint in Miami in the 90s, but not Boston.

I know for damn sure you can't put fat slow Boris Diaw on him, and dare him to shoot open jumpers.

Obviously Bowen. Even if Ginobili's the better defender (he's not), he need to save it for offense and not guarding MJ.
