Y2Jimmy0 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 13, 2014 -> 09:20 PM) Dumb question alert! So because Toronto won their division, do they get the #3 seed over the Bulls if the two teams finished tied despite the fact the Bulls have the better conference record? I believe so. However, if Indiana is the #1 seed, the Bulls should pack it in and stay at #4. They never would though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why it's hilarious that 20+ years later we have fans that want that style of play back. No thanks. Go watch wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a struggle enough last year. No Brook Lopez this year. Bulls were also 2-1 against them in the regular season. That and home court make me pretty confident the Bulls can beat the Nets in the first round. It won't be easy, but it's doable.

And that one loss was in March when Brooklyn finally started getting their s*** together (Bulls first two wins were earlier in the year). I'd much rather face the Wizards/Bobcats and their lack of playoff experience, but avoiding Miami till the ECF is just too good to pass up personally.

Buehrle>Wood Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 But the Bulls won't be favorites against the Nets and then they won't be favorites again against the Pacers, so that scenario is very unlikely. At least with the 3 seed they get a relatively easy first round and it's always fun to play the Heat, even if the result is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am telling you that I think the Bulls can beat Brooklyn and Indy and go to the ECF. I do not however think they can beat Miami under any scenario. So it's either: Get the 4th seed and have a shot at the Conference Finals or 3rd Seed and lose in round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
