Playoff Predictions

[Glide2keva]

And you were watching...and you thought Brent Barry and Ron Mercer could lead the team to championships...because you are that big of a Bulls fan...right?

I was watching. They lost a ton of games man. I had fun booing guys John Starks & Larry Hughes 9God did I hate that guy). I loved guys like Rusty Larue, was pissed at Jay Williams for crashing his bike. I loved Antonio Davis and Jerome Williams (JYD baby!).

They lost a lot, but they were fun to watch at times. Eddie Robinson was the best player on the team for a year maybe and couldn't get off the bench because he was a lazy idiot.

So having watched those days, I got to see when Kirk Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, Andres Nocioni, Brad Miller, etc. all came together in 07 and beat the Heat, to advance for the first time in 9 years. I saw the highs and the lows. I didn't cut and run when the titles were coming anymore. I'm die hard with this, not fair weather.

So yes I was watching and that's why I'm behind this team, because I saw where it came from and still supported them, unlike you who left when MJ left and then came back when they started winning again.

Dude STFU what is f*ck!ng problem the Bulls will win it all and you can put that on your pipe and smoke it!

You're supposed to pick Miami.

This is a different story dummy this team is Championship caliber team I'm just saying if you are a real Bulls fan you should believe in your team that they can win it all.

So just because they're a good team and I'm a Bulls fan, I should automatically think they're gonna win it all?

I'm not picking against the Bulls just to prove I'm not a homer or because I'm less of a Bulls fan than you or anyone else... I'm not picking the Bulls because they still have some of the gaping holes they have last season. We're still a shitty free throw shooting team, we still don't have a consistent #2 option to take over a game when Derrick Rose is playing awful and we're banged up. Deng is having some awful games which he says has something to do wit his wrist injury... Rose has like 50 injuries.. etc.

50 injuries?

Exaggerate much?

Obviously I'm exaggerating. It was just another way of saying that Rose has been really banged up this season.

The latter half, not all season.

which is still concerning.... considering that when you add MArch/April up, Rose hasn't finished the season well at all. Part of the reason why I expect the Bulls to fall short. Rose is still trying to get his rhythm back heading into the playoffs and he hasn't really played with Rip at all.. and it shows.

He is said to be feeling great according to KC Johnson.

Everything you just mentioned, I knew about and I saw...

If you have to watch 82 games a year to extrapolate THAT out of it...

that's you. Or maybe you were still working there...that of course means you know more than everybody else....right?

93-96. So no.

No...you just laughed at him...as if your way of thinking is fact and divergent opinions are...to be laughed at. Never mind the plausibility of the argument...its the Bulls, so they can't lose, or you get laughed at...because this is a Bulls forum.

Hey, he sold popcorn at the United Center. I think he knows a little more about basketball than the rest of us.

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

I watched the Bulls when they sucked too in 05 but why even watch now if you don't think they will go all the way? IMO that would be a waste of your time. HELLO YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!

Did your mother have any children that lived?

Not thinking the Bulls will win it all is not the same as not wanting them to win it all.

I want the Bulls to win it all. I think the Bulls can win it all. Will they win it all? I'm 50-50 on it.

This is just.....dumb.

Maybe people who viewed the Jordan teams live can tell me better, but this team just doesn't feel special to me.

Rose needs a Pippen. Hamilton isn't it and Deng isn't either.
