The Best Team of the 80's

What do u guys think is the best team of the 1980's? My personal opinion is the Lakers. Kareem, Magic, Worthy for the latter part and Kareem, Magic, and Wilkes for the earlier part of the 80's. What do u guys think?

It can really only be between the Lakers and Celtics. I'd have to go with the Lakers since they won five championships to the Celtics' three, appearing in nine Finals overall during the decade.

I would've actually considered the Bad Boy Pistons over the Lakers, better defense and the Pistons and the Celtics would always face each other in the Ecf.

The Lakers and Celtics still stand as the most successful teams of the decade.

Yeah every year of the 80s finals included either Magic or Bird. Would be wrong for one of those teams not to be the best.
