I remember some of those post-Magic teams, they were fun to watch. Smart, savvy veterans mixed with a few good young players. They upset the Sonics one year by just playing smart basketball and waiting for Seattle to self destruct. The same strategy almost worked against the Suns another year ... IIRC, an iffy call down the stretch of the deciding game really swung that in favor or Phoenix.
It's actually why I never really took the Bulls beating the Sonics or Suns all that seriously. Those opponents were seriously flawed, and if you just kept a game close, and it came down to halfcourt execution, neither team looked good. Just keep it from being a transition game and they were average. Same with the Blazers of the early 90's. Lots of individual talent, but not smart basketball teams, especially in halfcourt. And the playoffs, especially back then, was often about who could execute and create good shots in halfcourt.
Honestly, the best-executing team the Bulls beat in the 90's was the "Slow-time" Lakers, but unfortunately Worthy was hobbled with a bum ankle that series and would not finish, and then Byron Scott got hurt. They probably win anyway with the Lakers well past their prime, but it should have been a 7 game series.
