I think the Bulls CAN ACTUALLY win a road game for once, and the Palace of Auburn Hills has been very favorable to them recently. I think #41 in the "W" column happens tonight as the Bulls win by 8 and avoid the Cleveland LeBrons, I mean Cavaliers, in a #1 vs. #8 matchup. As for the fifth seed, forget it. The Bulls won't catch Miami, but it'll either be the Champions from Boston or Dwight Howard and Orlando in Round 1. Not that it matters... |

D-Wade's 55 point outburst last night against the knicks clinched the 5th spot. If the Bulls win their last two and the Heat lose their last two they are tied. Because of the two choke jobs the Bulls had against the Heat earlier this year, Miami owns the tiebreaker by winning 3 out of the 4 matchups. So the 5th spot is now gone. With that being said, the Bulls have to win this game tonight to ice the 6th/7th spot, and avoid the Lebron's in the first round. |

Sportscasters once mentioned the Bulls as the "Jordanaires" back in the day, and I bet there are some who refer to the Cavaliers as the "Cleveland LeBrons", especially because it's been LeBron James and... |

Is it possible for the Bulls to take control of a game and hammer a team all the way through? It seems that on this win streak they have snuck every game out at the buzzer. |

I'm telling you all, prepare for D.Rose to average at least 20 and 10 next year....he is the best finisher at the rim I've seen in quite a long time... |

So where does this win put the Bulls in the playoffs 6 or 7? |

| Author: | hawkeye [ Mon Apr 13, 2009 9:22 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Re: @ detroit |
6 right now with 1 left for them. Half game up for the 6th spot. Edit: Man, Rose is a lot of fun to watch. He's so damn poised/professional but aggressive and athletic at the same time it's going to be fun watching him grow the next few years. This is a hell of a start though. |

I know it does not mean much in the big picture, but I LOVE to see the Bulls beat the Pistons and to secure their fate of being 1st round fodder for LeBron. |

After numerous blown calls, including that one, I turned to my friend and said "this is like a highlight reel of bad officiating." Bill Simmons is right: the NBA has the worst officiating in sports, hands down. |

This late season surge just means that Vinnie Del Bevington is going to be the coach next year. I would like to see some defense from this squad and Vinnie doesn't seem to be the man for that job. |

That's the NBA, for the most part. You have a few upper end teams who routinely blow other teams out, but the rest tend to go on runs back and forth, with the better teams pulling out the win at the end. Prior to the trade the Bulls were generally on the losing end, and now they're on the winning end. To me, that means they're on the upper-echelon of mediocrity. |

I'm not sure where the 10 assists will come from unless they make a few trades. I can't recall a team missing so many wide open shots since Kobe was forced to go 1 on 5. You're right...but I'm thinking that him and Tyrus will work on some lobs over the summer for at least 2 or 3 a game. |

He's so damn poised/professional but aggressive and athletic at the same time it's going to be fun watching him grow the next few years. This is a hell of a start though. Yeah, his shot will improve, for one. Right now he has no consistency in his jump shot; hot one night, cold the next. That will get better with reps. Once he can become automatic from mid-range, I don't see how teams will defend him. I'm so happy the Bulls finally have someone that has genuine superstar-level talent. Hopefully he reaches his potential. He's still got to do something about that defense, though. I carefully watch him on defense every game, and routinely see the other team score because someone else had to pick up his man after he lost him. He's really Gordonesque in that regard. |

A man has got to know his limitations. Tyrus is convinced he is a player that his is not and will never be. |

The good thing about Thomas and Noah is that they're both quick for their size; they're an ideal pairing for a PG like Rose, if they can continue to improve their court awareness. |
