About Golden State vs Bulls
While the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics lead the way by some distance in terms of most NBA Championships won, it is the Golden State Warriors and the Chicago Bulls who lead the chasing pack.
The 2 teams have been pitted against one another since Chicago’s debut in 1966; the Bulls played the Warriors twice in their first 4 NBA fixtures in October of that year, with both outfits winning 1 game apiece.
The Bulls were dominant in the 1990s, while much of the Warriors’ success has come in recent years, courtesy of 5 consecutive NBA Finals between 2015 and 2019. Indeed, the Warriors’ recent dominance saw them break a long-standing record set by the Bulls, who won a remarkable 72 games during the 1995-96 season; the Warriors finished the 2015-16 campaign with an astonishing 73-9 record.
