for GS's sake, I hope not. Bulls haven't been back to the finals since.
Different circumstances too. Bulls had just completed their second 3-peat. Crumbs Krause finally won his battle of wills vs Jordan/Pippen/Big Chief Triangle. Thought he could prove the Bulls dynasty was as much his doing as #23 and Phil Jackson. Got lucky with the lotto balls, picked Elton Brand #1. First of many mistakes that doomed the franchise. Derrick Rose's knees being another. Those days now just a very distant memory in Chicago for anyone over the age of 35.
GS team break up is by necessity, as shown on the court last night. Bulls was forced-destruction due to egos/personality conflicts. Between the Pippen/Krause feud, the Phil/Krause feud, and freak show Rodman, they were holding it together with strings that last season.
