Bulls vs Lakers and the NBA Playoffs is a 1992 basketball video game developed and published by Electronic Arts for the Sega Genesis. It is the second game in the NBA Playoffs series, following 1989's Lakers versus Celtics and the NBA Playoffs. The game features the previous season's NBA championship series, the 1991 NBA Finals matchup between the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers.

Bulls vs Lakers introduced a television broadcast-style presentation on the fictional Electronic Arts Sports Network. EA chief creative officer Bing Gordon was featured as the game announcer. This was also the first game to depict NBA team logos on the courts.
