                                              Mitten State Sports Report's Series Notes:





-  Clash of the Titans!  Jordan vs. Magic, Phil vs. Riley, and  Pippen vs. Worthy.  Add Karrem Abdul-Jabbar, and Dennis Rodman to the mix, and anything can happen.


-  Both teams have exceptional roll players on their respective benches.  Both teams are excellent at 3-point shooting, rebounding, and scoring.  The Bulls have an advantage on the defensive end.


-  The Lakers '1996-1987' could exploit the defensive mismatch down low between Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Luc Longley.


-  A.C. Green would struggle boxing out Dennis Rodman.  Rodman was also a scoring option on the '1995-1996' Chicago Bulls!


-  The '1995-1996' Bulls were 72-10 during the '1995-1996' NBA regular season.  They were 15-3 during the Playoffs, and they were the '1996' NBA Champions!


- The '1986-1987' Lakers were 65-17 during the '1986-1987' NBA regular season.  They were 15-3 during the Playoffs, and they were the 1987 NBA Champions!


-  Michael Jordan would will the Bulls to victory.  The '1996' Bulls may be the best team in NBA history!
