No way Spurs are placed over Jordan's Bulls.... unless they match them with 6 rings; then and only then can the conversation be had.
1. Celtics
2. Lakers
3. Bulls
4. Spurs
5. Pistons
Jordan's Bulls were better.
Lakers
Celtics
Spurs*
Bulls
Pistons
*Suns got jobbed by the refs
Agreed. Lakers are there because of the Magic of the 80's and West of the 70's show. The 21st century Lakers almost makes them lose points.
IT was close but I had to put the Spurs ahead of the Bulls considering what they have done in the past decade by having a higher winning percentage than any sports franchise during that time.. That is just amazing.
According to Coach Red Auerbach basketball is both a defense and offensive game. Anyone who thinks otherwise by blaming a loss on the refs is a
.
The Lakers have played in at least one finals in every decade of NBA existence...
There is no comparison to them.
Best Winning PCT
Second most Championships
3 of the top 5 ever played for them...
Wilt
Kareem
Magic
And I hate the fncking Lakers.
OTOH the Celtics had a good sixties....
If you looked the Bulls only in the 90's they'd be higher, but they've spent a lot of time sucking outside of the 90's.
HA HA HA, Spurs over the Bulls, ing Homer...
What's with all the Mavs hate anyway? '
They've won 67 games this year, have two division les and a WC championship...that ought to be good for at least the #1 spot.
1.Celtics
2.Lakers
3.KNICKS
4.Bulls
5.Spurs
If you're going to be full of then just put the Knicks first...
,
I dont mind people say the bulls are better overall than the spurs!,, but the knicks?.....hahahaha!
I'd love to see you justify this...seriously what have the knicks ever done to earn a spot on this list?
And the Bulls still deserve a place higher than the Spurs
Celtics
Lakers
Bulls
Spurs
Pistons
If you are just talking about championships it's simple..
Celtics
Lakers
Bulls
Tie - Spurs - Pistons
I thought we were looking at the entire history of the franchises though...the Spurs for being the baby of the group, the adopted baby of the group, have an impressive resume.
There's no question that the Lakers and Celtics are the top 2 greatest teams in NBA history.....And the knicks come in at a distant third.
Exactly, the knicks have a rich history. The spurs just started theirs in 99. There's no way the spurs are in front of the knicks as the 3rd greatest team ever.
Any knick team will blow away any spurs championship team excluding the 99 knicks.
What is impressive about Knicks history?
2 championships in 65 years?
I guess the Kings belong on the list too.
The Knicks were playing when there were like...3 teams in the League...I don't know how they only have 2 championships.
Ok I edited the thread.......... Im talking about championships, winning percentage, and players and coaches
Knicks had all of the above.
Still ..the knicks?,,, i mean common!
here is my top 5 greatest Regular season teams ever
1. Mavericks
2. Suns
3. Bulls
4. Celtics
5. Sixers
Good job...if you get into players and stuff...the Spurs rank ahead of the Bulls...
The Bulls have been garbage except for the Jordan era...in terms of players and championships, winning.
To tell you the truth, the Pistons probably deserve to be ahead of the Bulls as well ...and probably deserve to be ranked ahead of the Spurs.
