I think this is a good question. Pippen is the best of the four but I'm talking as a total package. Deng and Gordon will both be a greater impact then Grant. I say it will end up being the 2004 draft. I know it's early but I'm asking you to project.

I don't know. I know they won't have Jordan to help. That was a small factor in those 3 titles for Pippen and Grant.

How am I sipping on Bulls kool-aid? This is a Bulls answer either way you go.

Pippen is the best player of the bunch. H.Grant and Gordon equal each other in team impact.

Pippen > L.Deng + H.Grant = Gordon

Pippen and H.Grant draft was better.

Not even a question. A top 50 player of all time (in some people's opinion) plus a guy who averaged 10 rebounds and won 3 championships.

When Luol or Ben appear on the cover of Playboy with a girl stradling his face, then this question may be getting closer.

It's too early to tell if Gordan and Deng can come close to the same standard set by Pippen and Grant. I seriously doubt it though....

I agree with Nas, there is no comparison. Scottie Pippen is a top 50 all-time player. He and Grant were huge during the championship runs.

Deng, is all-star caliber, but no where near the all-around athlete Pippen ever was.

Gordon is a one dimensional player. Excellent scorer, but poor defensively and barely adequate at passing. Plus, his basketball IQ can be questionable at times. He makes some bonehead turnovers at crucial times.

the only aspect that Gordon and Deng could outperform Pippin would be at tipping.

I had to go with Horace and Scooter.

Mr_Gimp, you're right on the money. Until Deng & Gordon become nearly the defensive players Scottie & Horace were, I don't think a fair comparison can be made. And yes, Scooter was an awesome all-around athlete.

A better poll would be which was the better draft:
Ron Artest/Elton Brand or Tyson Chandler/Eddy Curry or Jason Caffey/Dragan Tarlac

Actually, I think you could make an argument that the 2006 draft of Tyrus/Thabo was better than Gordon/Deng.

Beardown is your choice for meaningful Bull polls ergo discussion? What is most unfortunate is what Nas had to say has been pruned.

I can't believe this is a serious question...

Is this a serious question?

Wow. I can't believe I actually gave a legit response to the topic. I don't even remember posting that. I think I was still in "nice guy" mode. Back then I was way too friendly to tell Beardown that this was a shit topic.
