                                          Mitten State Sports Report's Series Notes:





-  Both rosters are loaded with superstars!


-  Scottie Pippen's scoring would offset some of Larry Bird's offensive contributions.


-  The Bulls '96' would expose the defensive mismatch between Jordan, and Ainge!  Jordan would have a huge series.


-  The Celtics '86' would have an advantage down low with Parish, and McHale.


-  The rebounding battle would be almost even.  Both teams would get second opportunities on offense.


-  Both teams would play better at home.  Home court advantage could be the difference in the series.
