I still think that most of the basketball world still thinks of Jordan and Pippen and the old days when they think of us. The thing of it is that we dont have any real household names, just a bunch of lunchpail kind of guys that go out and play the game. Not that thats a bad thing. No rape charges, no intra-team fighting, a winning record. Its all good!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rape charges, no intra-team fighting, a winning record. Its all good!!! The fact that NONE of these guys are selfish will lead this group of young men places for YEARS. I give a lot of credit to Scott Skiles in always seeming to be able to utilize the strengths of each player. I think that the additions of Noc and Gordon were the two biggest additions of the season. Gordon's the obvious, but Noc is the heart of the team (IMHO), though he doesn't speak a word to his team very much. Noc never loses energy and is always defending very stingy. I think his experience with Team Argentina is helping us out more than has been mentioned here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the playoffs start all records are 0-0 and anything can happen. The Bulls have a ton of heart and the Pistons or Heat might not take them seriously enough.

Screw anthony and espn. Why do I still watch? Well, on CSN's Sports Nite, they interviewed Stern, and he said he's pulling for our team. I did find it odd that ESPN didn't mention us in there little "blurb" though. I was waiting to hear "but, Chicago's in it, so the ratings won't take as big of a beating," and couldn't believe no mention was made of it. I think the whole Lebron hype is way overrated. Right now, that Cleveland organization is in total disarray that they wouldn't draw very high ratings if they DO make the playoffs. I don't see Cleveland making the playoffs, though, as New Jersey's been too hot down the stretch, and will pass them in a few more days. I do find it weird that Cleveland actually LED us a couple of weeks back...Oh, how the tables have turned. It's great for our Bulls to be going in to the playoffs on a hot streak instead of "backing in," like the Blackhawks did back in 2001-2002.

The 01-02 Blackhawks were a fluke team, a lot like the 2001 Bears. This team is a young club that has nothing but upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Bulls definateley will have a "nothing to lose, all to gain" attitude come playoff time. Im tired of all the Lebron hype too. All he ever does is whine to the refs for calls all game every game.

Afterall, he won't wanna stay with Cleveland's situation, and he wants to be in the "spotlight." LA is the PERFECT fit for him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York -- Over the cap until Lebron is close to 30 Chicago--- Too many young guys of our own to Lock up LA Clips--- I Think not La Lakers-- If he can co exist with kobe... Bingo. Maybe they trade Kobe 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should Boston be seeded higher than us just because they won their division, when we will finish with a better record than them, DESERVING that #3 seed? Here's what I'm thinking...Guarantee all division winners a playoff spot; but, seed them according to their records! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
