Ok strap in everyone, this will be a long one. First of all I don’t want to see comments about how inconsistent Derrick Rose was, this list is based off players in their prime, so Derrick Rose during his MVP season. Lots of people forget just how good Derrick Rose was, and how quickly he made a name for himself in the league. In his MVP season he averaged 25 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds playing phenomenally. Then comes Michael Jordan, who is in my opinion the greatest basketball player ever. Between 1986 and 1998 Shaq and David Robinson were the only other players to be the scoring champion. Those two seasons were when Michael Jordan was playing minor league baseball. Also the only not bulls championship team from 1991 to 1998 came during those two seasons. Michael Jordan is one of the most decorated basketball players ever. 14x All Star, 6x Champion, 11x All NBA, 9x All Defensive, All Rookie Team, 3x All Star MVP, Defensive player of the Year, 6x Finals MVP, 5x League MVP, and Rookie of the Year in just 15 seasons. In his best overall season he averaged 35 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks(Basketball-Reference). Next comes Scottie Pippen, who is one of the best two way players of all time. He compliments Jordan well and not to mention that he and Jordan have great chemistry. Then there is Dennis Rodman who is one of the greatest rebounders and hustle players of all time. At 6’7 he was able to be the rebounding champion 7 seasons in a row, averaging over 14 every season(Basketball-Reference). As if this team wasn’t already dominant enough, there was also Artis Gilmore, who during his time with the Bulls averaged 19 and 11. Artis is also special because he is second only to Moses Malone in terms of all-time offensive rebounds. This team is the definition of matchup nightmare because almost every player can take over and score rapidly. Now to be honest you could put in three children on the bench and it would still be an A+. However this isn’t the case and the bench has strong scorers and will be able to provide good relief for the starters and not be outplayed by other teams. This is why in my opinion the Bulls have if not the best, one of the best All-Time Teams. Best Player: Michael Jordan
