Chances they end up with the #1 seed in the east? It is time to start thinking about it.
With Boston's 'Marathon' approach, and Miami's tough schedule, I think they have a real shot at it.
i'd have to look at each teams schedule down the stretch, but when you are only talking a 2 games seperating, anything is possible. Bulls are playing good, Deng is tearing it up, as is Rose. Just wish the would feed Boozer in the post a little more.
you can also see Noah's impact with his tip in rebounds/buckets and getting out on the break. He also had a nice play last night when he was at the elbow, dropped it off to Boozer, than cut to the basket, and opened up a lane for Boozer to follow him to the basket.
It was also nice to see Noah playing heavy minutes in the 3rd quarter. You could see him getting winded. At every whistle he was just chugging air and trying to recoup. It's a shame this road trip isn't a week later. I'd say Noah is still only 80-85% physically ready to run up and dwon the court.
Anyway you slice it, barring major injuries, the Bulls are set up to compete for the title for the next 5+ years.
Who can set the court on fire? ONLY THE BULLS
Keep 'em burnin' with desire? ONLY THE BULLS
Who can bring another title here?
Who can thrill 'em, chill 'em, make 'em jump up and cheer?
ONLY THE BULLS

let the tough stretch begin
next three vs. atlanta, orlando and miami.
first game vs. the hawks this season. should be interesting.
I wouldn't worry about the hawks. They're too soft.
THe Florida trip? It will be like the playoffs have started in March.
i was thinking Orlando would be the easiest of the three. The Magic just do not impress me. The remind me of last years Cavs. One really good player (Howard), one above average player (the PG) and than a bunch of spare parts.
Miami will be out for payback and will get the homer calls.
Atlanta is a tough call. they may not be the hardest nosed team, but they still have alot of talent.
it'll be a fun few days. sure beats match ups with the likes of the bucks and wizards.
Korver air balling a 3 at the end there? Not what you want to see from your 3 point specialist. Oh well, hopefully they can forget about this one and focus on Orlando and Miami coming up this weekend.
Hopefully, they blew their load on miami last night.
Gross.
Can you guys ssend some of your winning luck to Utah?? :evil:

In regards to Utah? Yeah, I still don't miss Boozer. Only Korver.
We did the best thing we could've with Deron. He was undoubtedly going to bolt anyway.

Don't forget Brewer. he's might be the best all around player we picked up from you guys.
and please, please, feed boozer the ball in the post more than 3 times a game. let him feast and collapse the defense for Rose. Sometimes i think they should play him off the bench with Korver and Brewer. They both know how to feed him.
uh oh...i might be sounding like a broken record again.

Oh yeah, Brewer. We'll give you Hayward for him.
Okur would be a huge help to us if the guy wasn't spending the entire season with fucking injuries!! :evil:

Miami now 1 for 16 on shots to tie or win the game in teh last 10 seconds of the 4th
they can't beat the top teams in the East. 0-6 vs. the Bulls and Celtics

Nice to see them back in town!
Derrick Rose you star!
one of the assistant coaches coined the tornado shot for Noah's jumper because it tends to spin more sideways than a normal persons shot.

I always worry about the Hawks. They always seem to have our number...especially in Atlanta.
Awful. Just plain awful.

i think it's now 7 straight losses in atlanta. I won't say the Orlando is a must win, but if they want a wining record on this trip it is.
nice article on rose
Hopefully, they blew their load on miami last night.

and in other news, Butler is going to wear # 45
they can't beat the top teams in the East. 0-6 vs. the Bulls and Celtics
they also suck vs. the West top teams.
hehe
That should be their new slogan. 'We make other teams cry'
A Bulls win and a Heat loss....what a wonderful day it was.
It's unreal how the Heat cannot win a close game against tough teams.
Nice to see them finally feed boozer a little. He looked the freshest of all the non bogans starters
