Welcome to a new series I am doing, about if teams like the 1970-71 Bucks could beat the 2020-21, or could the 1996-97 Bulls, lead by MJ, could beat the Bron lead 2012-13 Heat? We answer some of these questions!
First up, in Part 1, we will see Giannis on the rest of the 2021 NBA champion Bucks take on the 1970-1971 Bucks in an amazing 7 game series!

1970-1971 Bucks Summary and Overview:
Regular Season: 66-16 (.805)
