Following tonight's loss to Golden State, the Bulls are 1-1 in the very early yet shortened season. Considering the strength of the East but lacking Central division, what is a realistic win number that Chicago will need to secure a minimum #2 seed in the playoffs?

My guess is at least 48 wins (66 game season).

Miami looks like the only East team that will win 45+ games. I think the Pacers will win 40 games. 43-44 wins should get a top 2 seed.

1/4 of the way through the season. Bulls on pace to win 54 games. Kind of amazing considering 11 of 17 games have been road games, Rose has been out 4 games, Rip and CJ missed much more than that. Don't matter much. Bulls just role the ball out and beat the shit out of the team without horns on the jersey.

I would not have predicted this prior to the season, but the Bulls have a shot at nabbing 52 wins. Heat will be second at 48 or 49.

Let's just hope they can keep their legs around game 40.

Bulls stacking W's while Rose is out, plus a shortened season makes me feel pretty confident that he'll be fresh when the post season comes about.

I have no doubt of that. Assuming they can continue stacking up W's.
