At Los Angeles... Lakers -5.5 or 6
At Miami ...... Heat -2
In a 7 game series..... Los Angeles in 5 or 6 at the most

Have to disagree here, Brock. The Lakers were a complete team facing bigtime competition. Michael might take them to a game 6 or possibly 7 but Los Angeles would drop the Bulls like a bad habit

Lakers in 5 tops. Heat would stand no chance. I'm being nice to say they win one game. Bosh lmao. Whou would guard Kareem?(Rofl).
Not sure why you brought this up though. This Heat team is not even in discussion for one of the best teams ever. Jazz 97 would have beaten this heat team.

Who would guard Lebron James? James Worthy? ha. Magic Johnson was never a good defender. Byron Scott would get destroyed by Wade and James would check Johnson on the other end. Kareem was past his prime in 87.
There's no way it would be a sweep. If you think about it the Lakers were one of the best fast break teams we've seen. The defensive and transition speed of mia would bother them. You have two of the most explosive players ever to play the game on one side.
Lakers in 7.
^ Lakerman, sorry, no. The Jazz would get murdered on the fast break. Their best defender was Bryon Russell lol. You got two superstars in Malone and Stockton that can't guard anyone. MIA two stars are two of the best defenders of all time at their positions. That's why the bulls beat them both years. Because Pippen and Jordan know how to play both sides of the ball and Malone has 0 killer instinct.
