I'd say the Bulls. They'd win the battle on the boards and MJ would destroy today's soft defense. Pippen, Jordan, or Rodman could all defend Lebron, which is impressive considering that in today's game, there are only a handful of guys who can defend him. The Bulls could defender the perimeter and the paint, and they would be able to fill the paint with size if needed. The Bulls would have the best player (Jordan) and the 3rd best player (Pippen) and superior rebounding along with better size. The Cavs would have better shooting.

I'd go with a 4-0 sweep, with about a 15-20 point average margin of victory. Jordan would probably average about 45 per if he wanted.


no one can guard lebron....

Kawhi Leonard, Paul George (pre-injury), Shawn Marion, James Johnson, and others have been able to do so.

Kawhi in particular has outplayed him a few times on both ends of the floor.

Jordan, Pippen and Rodman are all-time great defenders. Don't sleep on them.

Cavs,

MJ benefited playing in a soft era.

If he played and got no calls like lebron, he would not be mentally prepared


did play in a soft shyt era, but MJ is timeless. 100% wudnt be 6/6 tho...

are you trying to imply MJ wouldnt be 6/6 in todays era?

not really a reach, as the talent pool is global now because of mj....

since 2000 i bet, average nba rosters have substantially more talent than the 80's/90's eras

i agree with rew's assessment. maybe not such big margins of victory, and lebron might snag a game. but if phil jackson is there too, no way that series goes in lebrons favour lol
