Am I the only person who sees this matchup similar to the Bears/Packers matchup this year?
Are the Heat the Bears? Cause I sure as hell hope so.
Unfortuantely not, Heat are like the Packers who were favored all season, but then there are the Bulls who are like the Bears with a great regular season.
Hopefully the Bulls beat the Heat, turn on the air conditioning turn on your fans.

I see it as LeBron can't get past Thibodeau.
And I definitely do see the parallels between the Packers vs. Bears and the Heat vs. Bulls
-Bulls' arch-rival is the Heat; Bears' are the Packers
-Bulls had better record in the Eastern Conference; Bears better record in NFC
-Bulls-Heat is the last Round before the Finals; Bears-Packers was last round before the SB
-Bulls' D and Rebounding is great and the offense is sub-par; Bears' D and Special Teams are great but the offense was sub-par.
-Heat have a more dominant offense than the Bulls; Packers have a more dominant offense than the Bears.
-It would be heart-breaking to lose to the Heat (despite overcoming expectations); It was heart-breaking to lose to the Packers (despite overcoming expectations).
- You forgot to mention that in the playoffs, the Bears played the Seahawks (rofl), while the Packers played the Eagles and Falcons, before their championship game, which is similar to the Bulls cake-walk to this series while the Heat had to go through Boston.
But overall, I guess you are saying the Heat will beat the Bulls, as the Packers beat the Bears.
I think the comparison is silly, not only because they are two completely different sports (7 games series vs 1 game playoff) but because the Packers were a 6 seed and the Heat are a 2 seed.
And some extras, since we are comparing the two sports/teams:
- Is the Heat the Bulls "arch rivals?" I am seriously asking because if they are, then that is pathetic. The Bears/Packers rivalry is EPIC. A Bulls/Heat rivalry, up-to-this-point, seems like a Bears/Browns game in comparison. And yes, I know the last 10 years of playoff history, it is still nothing.
- IMO - Packers defense is just as good, if not better then the Bears. Younger and faster, although with a different scheme. Nitpicky but just IMO.
And I predicted the Bulls to beat the Heat, 4-3. But it's a series that can obviously go either way.
