What was opinionated by former Chicago Bulls player Jay Williams?
Williams stated, “I think that the 2016-2017 Golden State Warriors is the best basketball team ever assembled! … I think that Golden State WOULD win this series in six!”
Jay Williams was on the same page as Stephen Curry’s as both felt that the Dub Nation might emerge victorious, given the depth and scoring ability of majority of its players.
To those who are not aware, the 1996 Chicago Bulls reached its pinnacle in the 1995-96 season, finishing 72-10 on the way to the first ring of what would eb a second three-peat in the Windy City.

With Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson on one side and Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman on the other? We will never know which trio would have reigned superior but it is safe to say, that it would have been one of the best matchups till date.
