Rodman calls '95-96 Bulls 'the greatest team of all time' after Warriors' loss
"72-10 don't mean a thing without the ring."
The 1995-96 Chicago Bulls didn't believe their historic campaign would have truly been a success had they not won the NBA championship that season. Former players credited this year's Golden State Warriors for breaking the Bulls' 72-win record, but remained adamant that the Warriors needed a title to rank them ahead of what that Chicago team accomplished.
The Warriors were unable to defend their crown on Sunday night in Game 7, losing 93-89 to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who captured the city's first major title since 1964.
Afterwards, Rodman took to Twitter to congratulate the Cavaliers on their monumental win. However, in typical Worm fashion, the former two-time Defensive Player of the Year decided to pour salt in Golden State's fresh wounds by reminding Stephen Curry and Co. who the greatest team ever is.
Congrats @cavs for winning @NBA title. @warriors u had a great regular season. But the greatest team of all time is the 95-96 @chicagobulls
