But in 1995, there is no way Chicago wins. The Bulls lost Grant that year and with no interior presence, Hakeem would have torched them for 35/15 on 60% in the finals. Not to mention, Houston added Clyde. MJ stans have to stop acting like Hakeem's rings were all because MJ left. That just isn't the case.
In fact, it's possible even with MJ not retiring that Chicago still doesn't beat Orlando in 1995. Having said that, I think if Chicago did make the finals in '95, then they would have lost in 6 or 7.
I agree that 95' is the year for the Bulls to lose because the Rockets had two "1st option Finals guys" (Drexler, Hakeem) - that's huge in the 90's because the 1st option Finals guys are the top tier of the 90's (Hakeem, Shaq, Malone, Barkley, MJ, Ewing, Drexler, Duncan)..
In addition to Drexler/Hakeem, the Rockets had Horry getting 18/10 on 55% in the 95' Finals, which would rank as the 3rd best Finals of Pippen's career.. So those Rockets had a "pippen" at 3rd option.

Re: Kerr says bulls couldnt win more than 3 in a row
The Bulls would have won in '94 had Jordan not retired and if that happened, Grant probably doesn't head to Orlando. That being said, they also don't get Rodman and probably don't win 72 games.
BTW, Kerr is lucky to had been the coach of a team that head Steph, Klay, Green, and KD. Look how good Walton was while Kerr was out and now he sucks without them just like Kerr sucked without them.

So Kerr is simply wrong
The 94' Bulls with Jordan would've had the best cast that the franchise ever had - BY FAR.. People don't realize how much the Bulls upgraded their roster that year - they would've been massive favorites against the Hakeem Rockets and swept them by record amount
People don't realize that Jordan wasn't injured when he retired - he only retired because he was bored - if he'd lost to Barkley, he would've kept playing
The "he was bored" excuse fell to the wayside after the documentary. He said himself it was due to mental and physical fatigue

But no one asked him what he would do if he lost to Barkley
There's a zero percent chance that he takes his ball and goes home if he loses to Barkley.. Impossible... He would trudge onwards just like 11' Kobe or 14' Wade after their failed 3-peat attempts
So ultimately, that's why he retired - unprecedented winning and dominance (3-peat and 40 ppg) - this gave him the luxury to retire

Depends on the player. Pippen played on the Bulls, and most people think he's lost his marbles. Out here thinking Phil Jackson is David Duke.

Chicago was good enough to win 70 games in 1994, maybe even more than 72 games. Remember, Pippen, Grant, and BJ were at all their peaks, with MJ coming off a legendary finals performance and being 2 years younger than he was in 1996.

I dunno about 70 wins, but MJ was "bored" after '93 season. He even told his dad that he felt he accomplished enough and that's there's no other hill to climb. Part of the reason they won 70 games in 1996 was because the hunger & passion came back. To prove to himself that he could conquer NBA again without the guidance of his father.

MJ was mentally exhausted according to the docuseries. What I'm saying is a prime MJ putting up 32/7/5 on 50% added to peak Pippen, Grant, and BJ's play was definitely more than enough to win 70 games.
They won 55 without MJ and that's with Pippen missing 10 games himself. With MJ the ceiling is much higher.

So let's stop disregarding hakeem's championships gentlemen.
