My god calm down.
Tonight's game changes nothing.
I agree that you can't judge how good the Cavs are gonna be this year by tonight's game, but that loss was HUGE!
With the Bulls playing Cleveland on Friday night, they have a chance to start the season with a 2 game lead on the Cavs. Once they figure out how to get all that talent to play together, I don't see Cleveland losing a lot of games, but I don't think the Bulls are going to lose a lot of games, either. If they are going to get home court advantage in the playoffs, they will need to get as far ahead of the Cavs as possible early in the season.
The Bulls destroyed the Knicks last night and I just assumed that it was because the Knicks sucked, but they came back less than 24 hours later and beat what we all know will be a very good Cleveland team. Lebron's gonna be mad tomorrow night and we won't have Jimmy Butler to slow him down. The Bulls need to win to make a statement and get a bit of a head start.
