southsider2k5 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 20, 2011 -> 11:27 PM) I agree that depth in the regular season, especially a condensed season, will be beneficial. But in the playoffs, when it's time to see LeBron, Wade and Bosh, that depth means next to nothing. Unless that lack of depth leads to someone like Wade wearing down and getting hurt... Again.

Steve9347 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 I really love this team. Boozer does indeed seem lighter on his feet, Deng is really stepping up into a legit #2 role, and Rip Hamilton creates something fierce. Please, please stay healthy.

Kinda said the same thing after the first one... kinda said the same stuff all last season. Rip Hamilton was obviously an upgrade, that was never not my opinion. I just wanted the Bulls to aim higher this offseason. However, every game is must-watch, and I fully expect, if healthy, that the Bulls will show even better this year than last.

SleepyWhiteSox Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 21, 2011 -> 09:29 AM) What a difference one pre-season game makes huh? Seriously trying to temper my enthusiasm after two fairly "meaningless" preseason games, but they just plain look solid and in sync. Sure, I'd rather the upgrade at SG was more significant, and I preferred a more significant move as opposed to the conservative one that was made, but if they can play together like a machine throughout the season, use their depth to their advantage, and have a guy really step up to help Rose, this can be a very special season. They just may have the TEAM to beat a less-cohesive trio of stars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I still keep dreaming about that pacers game when rose was knocked out. Noah took the offense on his shoulders it felt like, and I loved it. He's so capable of it. I want him to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sircaffey Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 It would make sense if it included other pieces. The Bulls would be a perfect 3rd team to a trade that netted LA Dwight. Maybe Orlando has no interest in Gasol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, long as you can resign him. Asik slides in decently enough for Noah, Noah's health always questionable. Instant favorite for the title i'd think.
