I don't know, tough one to call. Bulls in seven. Bah.

By the way this is probably the closest we ever came to it: http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=253477

Also two Steve Kerrs - is one of them evil? That could make a difference.

[Lebron23]

Chicago Bulls in 6 games. Spurs had a very good front court. Robinson was still an elite Center in 1999.

[Dizzle-2k7]

bulls win this but if we're talking about 2003 or 2005 spurs ---- the spurs win.

Welcome back. 2007 and 2005 Spurs > 2003 and 1999 Spurs.

Bulls wins in 6

1999 Spurs. And it isn't even close.

[Lebron23]

I just wish he had not retired twice in 1993 and 1999. Bulls would have tied the the 1960's Boston Celtics 8th consecutive championship.

1998 Chicago Bulls were the superior NBA team. 35 yrs.old Jordan > 23 yrs.old Duncan.

Probably a really close series. I think Utah was better then either teams though. Mostly because I'm a bitter Jazz fan, but none the less... Utah was better both years lol

Welcome back. 2007 and 2005 Spurs > 2003 and 1999 Spurs.

Don't know about that. Our 2007 team wasn't really that strong, we lucked out that GS beat the Mavs in the first round and had a smooth ride to the Finals.

I think Bulls in 7 games is a good prediction.

Welcome back. 2007 and 2005 Spurs > 2003 and 1999 Spurs.

2005 Spurs > 1999 Spurs >= 2007 Spurs > 2003 Spurs

[Eric Cartman]

That awkward moment when Steve Kerr is guarding himself.

[Bigsmoke]

maybe Spurs.

[Lebron23]

maybe Spurs.

1998 Chicago Bulls swept the 1998 San Antonio Spurs in the Regular Season without Scottie Pippen in the 2nd game, and without 7'2" Luc Longley in the first game. The 1999 Spurs were a much better team, but Jordan was undefeated in the NBA Finals. Chicago Bulls in 6 games.
