I don't think I'm being a slappy here, but I think the '88-'90 Bad Boys would beat just about any team in the history of the NBA.

As this article about greatest teams ever says (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/865311-10-greatest-nba-teams-of-all-time/page/8):

"The Pistons ended the '88-89 season with 63 wins and went on to defeat Larry Bird?s Celtics and Michael Jordan?s Bulls in the Eastern Conference playoffs before sweeping Magic Johnson?s Lakers in the finals."

Daaaayum!

Note that '82-'83 76ers, '85-'86 Celtics, '86-'87 Lakers, and '91-'92 Bulls also made this top ten list. Talk about the golden age of basketball. The Bad Boys were playing and winning championships in the era of the Magic/Worthy/Kareem Lakers, Jordan's Bulls, Bird's Celtics, Dominique's Hawks, and Drexler's Blazers. They went back-to-back, but probably should have won at least three championships from about '85 through '91.
