... '93 H. Grant & 2009 Lebron James
With the 1987 Bulls roster minus the starting Forwards.
*beat*
good question
it's possible
part of me would lean towards no

Yeah I do believe this is quite an interesting proposition.
Are the arguable 2 GOATs at the peak of their athlethicism with a decent 3rd supporting almost all-star enough to beat perhaps arguably the best team ever.
there's a lot that could be said
the celtics were beatable
the rockets were not exactly a great team and won 2 games while losing a 3rd by 3 points

If you made it ‘91 Jordan, I think they’d have a shot. If it’s ‘87 Jordan, I’d pick the Celtics.
does 86 or 87 jordan replacing lewis llyod make houston win
maybe

Do they get to practice together for some time? Cause I'd think just dropping Lebron in 1987 he'd be terrible since he don't know his teammates and they don't know him. Not to mention the different rules.

I’ll say no. Bulls lineup isn’t good. Kinda hurts that grants taking oakleys spot whos one of the bulls better players that year

But that Grant is a border line all-star.
I don't think Oak was.

2019 Kawhi instead of 87 Jordan. Bulls sweep. Kawhi gets his Super Pippen 09 Lebron.

yes grant is better. it's just you're replacing one of the better players on that team with grant.

Oakley was an all-star
Better rebounder and better defender (1st team)
Better jumper... An enforcer and soul of a team...
So no

Swap out 1st round failure 87 Jordan for 2012 LeBron, throw him a Klay Thompson instead of 87 MJ and the Bulls sweep

I don’t see the all star team Oakley made in the 80s lol. If Oakley was actually an all star, you think prime Jordan could lead the bulls to more than a .500 record/8 seed

Oak was a very good role player at best.

I would agree though he was better with the knicks

'86 Celtics the most overrated team of all time.
No one would remember them if it were not for Bill Simmons bringing them up all the time.

before the bulls got rodman and kukoc and kerr and harper and before curry started shooting a million 3s
the only team to win more games and have a higher srs than the 86 celtics was the 72 lakers
make of that what you will
