Heat can only afford one more loss...Lakers can afford 4

[Ralphie1412]

When will you guys realize that the Bulls 72-10 is safe every year. 9 losses will never happen. Once again this talk will be over before the all star break.

[beach nut]

The Heat will be lucky to win more than 50 this year.

Lakers look old of late

What happened?

[Mr KLC]

Lakers will still pull it out. Phil Jackson goes out on top.

[stealthyburrito]

its a stupid comparison that rational people just dismiss as espn hype for the upcoming nba season.

[SportsMushroom]

the spurs could still do it easy!!

[RonPaul2008]

If Lebron had joined the Bulls instead of being a moron, the Bulls might have broken their own record.

You never know .... He may as well destroys the team ...

[Masu485]

i wonder what the spreads were for those Bulls games.

I have looked for this info with no success, would love to know as well.

[Doc JS]

I think I was out in front of this one...

I realized it before the season started!

Spurs only play their starters 30 minutes a game they are not even trying although good record so far.

[big0mar]

Heat might break it in a few years when they've had time together and added some depth.

Easy? Not a fukkin chance.

[DeeWizzle]

Not gonna happen anytime soon!

Lakers dont care for this record and wont put out the energy for it. The year the bulls did this the league was much more watered down. Lakers win the title this year and Kobe ties Michael for 6 rings.

False.

These days you're either really bad or really good. less than 30 wins or better than 50 wins. Little in-between. And actual TEAMS aren't as good as in the 90's.

We'll never see another defensive team like the 96 bulls

HOMER

Lakers aren't monumentally better than the other contenders, the 2010/2011 season is actually worth watching unlike last year.

[lakerboy]

only 14 teams were better than .500 in the years the bulls got the record. lets see how that goes this year. even the supersonics won 64 games that year.

i am not a homer at all. The west is weaker this year than it was last year. NO team in the west has a remote shot in a 7 game series versus the Lakers. Sure the spurs look good now but lets see how it pans out. As far as the east goes no one is beating LA from there either. Same shit for the lakers- just a different calendar year. Dont forget that Bynum hasnt even played yet.

and they won 63 when they lost to the nuggets 2 years earlier.

[DRZ]

Don't think that the Bulls record ever ever gets broken. NBA is too competitive nowadays.

No doubt that Bulls squad was special.
