No offense to Brian, but it's amazing how often a team starts out 8-0 or 9-0 or even 15-1 and automatically they're in the running to win 72 games+. I don't think people, even Bulls fans, truly comprehend how special that '96 team was.
No offense taken. I remember the 96 team like it was yesterday. It was crazy. I miss the Bulls being up big and the home crowd screaming for a Rodman 3.
I see your point and I remember a few years ago when Dallas was out to an insane start and I knew they had no shot at 70 because they couldn't defens a lick. Lakers can defend and rebound.
I don't think they will win 70 but they have a better shot than any team this year. IMO
