The best of the best!..Who would win?

If we make an NBA playoff tree and choose the best teams from different generations to see who would come out on top to represent their conference and of course, win the NBA Title, who would win...



Eastern Conference:



1.Celtics- any team they had from the their championship year's during the 80's



2.Bulls-their 96-97 season where they had the best record with Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Steve Kerr and so on



3.Sixers-their 82-83 season that won the title with the roster of Moses Malone, Julius Erving, Maurice Cheeks



4.Pistons-from their 88-89 roster with Issiah Tomas



5.New York-from their championship team with Walt Frazier, Willis Reed and Debusschere back in the 70's.



6.Milwaukee-with their title roster team with Oscar Robertson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bob Dandridge



7. Miami-Their team with Shaq, Wade, Walker, Payton, Mourning



8.Orlando-their Finals team with Shaq and Penny Hardaway in the mid 90's



who would represent the East and why

It's always fun to indulge in this kind of fantasy exercise. If a lot of people answer the question, you will probably get a large variety of answers. People are going to have different opinions on this, and there is no way to win an argument like this.



Having said that, I hope Bill Russell does not see your question. He might look at your list, smile, shake his head and think, "Well that guy reads current events, but he doesn't know his history." You can't have a list like this without the 60s Celtics. They were a dynasty.



The 66-67 76ers were also one of the all-time best. When asked about that team, Bill Russell said, "They just kicked our butt that year."



But I can't resist playing along, because I love this stuff. In the East, my favorite would have to be the 82-83 76ers. My God, they were a dangerous team that just destroyed everyone who got in their path in the playoffs. They went up against the world champion Lakers, with Kareem, Magic %26amp; co., and just destroyed them in four straight. Nobody could believe it. Dr. J, Moses Malone, Mo Cheeks, Andrew Toney, Ivaroni and a good bench, featuring one of the best sixth men of all time, Bobby Jones, had an incredible 12-1 record in the playoffs. They were devastating.



In the West, I would have to pick the great Laker teams from the 80s (possibly the 84-85 team as the top pick) with Magic, Kareem, Worthy, Byron Scott, Rambis, and Michael Cooper and the rest of the bench rounding out a dynamic force that just seemed to hit their opponents with so many weapons from all angles.



Put those two teams together and who wins? I'd have to go with a 76ers team that accomplished such a rare feat of burying an NBA champion in four straight games.

The 85-86 Celtics were the greatest team of all time. They would have run the 96 Bulls off the court !



They were way too strong upfront with Bird, McHale, %26amp; Parish, plus Bill Walton and all star Scotty Wedman coming off the bench.



You're forgetting the 1967 Philly 76ers , with Wilt, Greer, Cunningham , and also the 72 Lakers , with Wilt, West, Goodrich.



Any one of these teams would have crushed the 90's Bulls.
The Bulls. Look at their line up!
80s Celtics or 90s Bulls.... however the 60s Celtics would beat them all.



You left out the 80s Lakers, they were pretty impressive too.
East:



the 90s Bulls. Jordan-era Bulls would crush any great teams including the '86 Celtics. Their offense and defense were...incredible!



West:



Magic's Lakers.



Lakers vs. Bulls...uhm pretty much even but as much as i love the lakers, i think the Bulls were better.
