In 1995-96 the Chicago Bulls set an NBA record by going 72-10. Now 2015-16 the Golden State Warriors are on the verge of reaching that record. They've been compared to the bulls because of their beginning streak, 24-0.
But before any comparisons are drawn between the two super teams, the Bulls want to make one thing very clear: If these two teams could have jumped into some kind of dream machine and met at the same time to play against each other, there is little doubt in the Bulls' collective wisdom what would have happened. "I'll bet you out of, I don't know, 15 players, probably 16 would say that we would beat them," said former Bulls swingman Toni Kukoc, who now serves as an ambassador for the Bulls.
"I've thought a lot more this year about the 72-10 season than I have in the past because they're so close to doing it," former Bulls center Bill Wenningtonsaid. "Now they've just picked up their fourth loss in Detroit the other day, so I'd lie to you if I say I wasn't happy about it. But records and rules are made to be broken. It's going to happen one day. The longer it lasts, the better it is. But they're a great team, they play in a great system, they move the ball well, they play together well ... they're fun to watch."
