Lakers 2010 Bulls 1998

Kobe Bryant Michael Jordan
Pau Gasol Luc Longley
Ron Artest Scottie Pippen( yeah i no :D )
Derek Fisher Ron Harper
Lamar Odom(hopefully he stays) Dennis Rodman(yes for me lamar is like a rodman cuz lamar rebounds more than artest)

Simply typing players' names next to each other is not really a comparison

The Lamar to Rodman comparison is pretty ridiculous. I'd think a Kukoc comparison would be a lot more reasonable.

Much as I like old Luc, comparing him to Gasol is pretty insulting towards Gasol.

agreed, Rodman can't play 5 positions like Odom and he's not gifted offensively (minus the 3 straight treys and the occasion mid range jumper that goes in), while Odom isn't exactly a rebounding freak that can lead the league in rebounding for 7 straight years, or make the all defensive teams...Kukoc is a much more realistic comparison when it comes to my man LO

He might just want us to think that the '10 Lakers will be like the '98 Bulls. :|

They're more comparable to the '92 Blazers than to that of the '98 Bulls I reckon...

Why? Because they're so unique and fantastic or is it because each teams are different and are unique in its own way?

But in that respect, I'd compare them to the 2010 Boston Celtics. They haven't proven anything yet either.

Then would you go on to compare to them to all the teams in the league because no one has proven anything for 2010?

But we know for a fact that some teams will definitely suck while some teams definitely wont. Eventhough no one has proven anything for 2010 we're capable of making a fair prediction on how they will perform. ;)

Pretty much. :) Though you could obviously narrow the comparisons down to teams of similar strength that have made noteworthy offseason acquisitions.
