  1. Chicago Bulls
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Nebraska Cornhuskers
  2. Villanova Wildcats
This all despite the fact that even before this thread was posted, I held the opinion that the Bulls are constructed as a great regular season team, but not a great playoff team. 5 straight losses to the Miami Heat, and I don't think I'm wrong.

I hope I'm wrong, but nothing so far says to me that this team can get past the Miami Heat in the playoffs.

Seriously??? A person couldn't just think New York > Chicago in a playoff situation whether it was a Bulls forum or not?

Regardless of where it was said/posted, it is ridiculous to predict the Knicks going farther than the Bulls in the playoffs. And I'm saying he and his buddy do this to troll the group. He and a number of posters come in here regularly just to troll Bulls' fans. When was the last time f.t. EVER said anything complimentary of Luol Deng or Joakim Noah (2 very good players)? What I'm saying is Prope has jumped on the trolling-the-Bulls' fans bandwagon.

Oh absolutely. There was somebody, I'm going to say Rami because when somebody says something stupid in the Bulls forum it is normally Rami, that said the Heat were one injury away from being embarrassed in the playoffs.

That is a loser's mentality. I don't want to have to worry about the health of the Heat. I'd rather worry about the health of the Bulls and hope they make the right moves to put them over the top.

I know you're just joking about that, but hell, take Lebron away and that team might not make it past the first round.

Anyone who thinks the Bulls *can't* beat Miami in the playoffs is just ignorant. That blanket statement is so absurd, it would probably only be said by a Bulls' forum troll.

Oh **** you.

You can make ridiculous claims like Lebron is slower because he added muscle mass, then get thoroughly owned on that comment, and you still can't even bring yourself to admit you're wrong. Or you stay mired in the semantics of point guard or point forward despite the fact they asked to do the same things in an offense, yet not admit you don't understand the similarities.

You want to make outlandish claims like Boris Diaw and AK47 are just as if not more versatile than Lebron James. Then, when called on it, want to backtrack and pull the whole, 'it's my opinion, I'm entitled to it.' That is what a ***** does.

You can't have it both ways brother. You can't make your outlandish claims and fall onto the backtracking 'it's my opinion,' and then pull the same shit on somebody's elses opinion.

But here is the major difference between people like you and me: I was wrong about my original prediction about the Knicks. I was dead wrong. I admit it. I don't think you can admit you're wrong. About a lot of things you say in this forum.

Go **** yourself.

Can you fucking read, or should I post in Punjabi from here on out. Where in this post did I say the Bulls can't beat the Heat? Where?

'I don't think I'm wrong' =/= 'the Bulls can not beat the Heat'

'Nothing so far says to me this team can beat the Heat in the playoffs' =/= 'the Bulls can not beat the Heat'

Yep, really saying the Bulls can't win here.

Because I don't swing from Derrick Rose's pubic hair, or because I hold my favorite team to a higher standard, or because I don't think Joakim Noah is worth the amount of money he is being paid.....I must be a Bulls troll.

Go **** yourself.

I'm still surprised how horrendous the Knicks have played so far. Amar'e and Carmelo just do not play well together. Both of them are having terrible years offensively and their lack of a true point guard is really hurting them. Even if Baron Davis plays fantastic, I still think the Knicks will have a difficult time making the playoffs (they're currently 10th in the East, behind the likes of Boston, Milwaukee and the young Cavs).

I will say this, though. The addition of Tyson Chandler has improved them defensively, albeit a small improvement. Landry Fields has looked pretty good the last 10 games, as well.

Yeah, let's not go after what it is that I say about the Bulls. Let's go after the language I use, and that I'd like to be able to recognize the correct order of words in a sentence.

You have nothing.

I think the young Cavs are just that, young. The Knicks will be much better with Baron Davis, obviously. They'll still be able to make the playoffs, me thinks.

(sorry for trolling your post JosMin)

Not to get sucked into all of that, but Prope defiantly wasn't trolling.

Just my two cents.

Sorry, but Lebrom will be very sore in game 5 as OKC wins there last game of 2012.

Miami wins in 6 games as I predicted therefore I will be the true psychic and C.C.S fortune teller :troll:
