The Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls are two of the most often talked about and well-documented teams in NBA history.

Between the two, they've produced some superb rosters over the years, and have had plenty of superstars along the way, including two or three of the best to play. But, with so much talent spread across these rosters, the question is, how do the all-time rosters look for these two teams?

Let's break it down and check out the starting five, as well as a few honorable mention players for both the Celtics and the Bulls. To kick things off, it's onto the C's.

Celtics starting lineup

C- Bill Russell
F- Larry Bird
F- John Havlicek
G- Bill Sharman
G- Bob Cousy

Honorable mention

G Sam Jones (10 titles, 5 All-Star appearances, 17.7 PPG)
F Kevin McHale (3 titles, 7 All-Star appearances, 17.9 PPG, 7.9 RPG)
F Paul Pierce (No. 2 franchise scorer, 2008 Finals MVP (1 title), 10 All-Star appearances)

The Celtics are pretty much loaded. The accolades are ridiculous, as the starting five has 32 combined titles (obviously, some overlap). Russell averaged 15.1 points and 22.5 rebounds per game, Bird is widely considered as the face of Celtics basketball, Havlicek made 13 All-Star games, Sharman averaged 18.1 points and made eight All-Star games, and finally, Cousy was the 1957 MVP.

To go along with those numbers, the starting five have combined to make an unreal 58 All-Star appearances as well.

Honestly, choosing between a massive number of players who are all well-deserving of being named to the All-Celtics team. One of the toughest spots was deciding between Sharman and Sam Jones, just to name one possible player who could be replaced. Realistically, you could probably make an argument for 10-12 players who may deserve to be in the starting five.

While choosing the starting five was tough enough, leaving McHale out was pretty brutal in its own right. Plus, Pierce is probably one of the most well-known fan favorites of the recent day and age. You can't ignore what he's done, but he's not quite in the starting five.

Bulls starting lineup

C- Dennis Rodman (franchise-best 15.3 RPG)
F- Bob Love (3rd most points in team history, 21.3 PPG)
F- Scottie Pippen (17.7 PPG, 6.7 RPG, 5.3 APG)
G- Michael Jordan (31.5 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 5.4 APG, five-time MVP)
G- Jerry Sloan (4th most points in team history, 14.7 PPG, 7.7 RPG)

Honorable mention

C Artis Gilmore (19.3 PPG, 11.1 RPG, franchise leader in blocks)
G Norm Van Lier (3-time All-Star, 7-time All-Defensive team)
F Chet Walker (20.6 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 4-time All-Star)

Crazy to see Rodman on there, right? Well, he was the missing piece for yet another stretch of championships. He's going to be the most scrutinized pick on this list, and that's fine. He doesn't have the numbers that the other names do, but he was the enforcer and dominant force. He's not even a center, but his dominance inside is more than deserving of being listed there.

Now, to Mr. Jordan, which is where this all begins. MJ is not only the leader on this list, but he's the greatest basketball player of all-time. He headlines a group that's complete with Love (who's jersey-in-rafters good), Sloan, who was a scorer, but also an exceptional defender and rebounder and the man who helped lead that incredible stretch with Jordan, in Scottie Pippen.

Pippen's career may have been somewhat overshadowed due to the fact that he shared the floor with Jordan, but that can't take away from what he did in his career. Let's not forget that during 1994-95, he led the team in scoring, assists, rebounds, blocks and steals. Oh, and to top it off, he made the All-Defensive team eight times as well. He's likely the second most deserving player on this list.
