Gasol + Rose = a decent shot

Better than anyone giving him credit, but he might not see the floor this year, really deep squad. Not saying he equates to much more than Ed nealy, but he can play in the league.

I heard somebody interviewing Corzine a couple months ago saying that he was 20 years before his time.

I laughed and then I thought...he kind of has a point. The guy could shoot.

Do the Bulls have a shot? Yes. But you never know how those ping pong balls will bounce when they choose the lottery winner.

I had a few people text me last night about the game who are not even big Bulls guys. I don't really expect October NBA basketball to move the meter much though. People will take notice after January/February.

Its all predicated upon the health of their most important players. Unfortunately their best players have history with debilitating injuries. At full strength they will be able to play with anyone Eastern or Western Conf. Im hoping that the Bulls and Cavs will be at full strength come playoff time.

Why would you want the Cavs to be at full strength?

Yeah and I guess the NBA doesnt really make the big deal about opening night, like baseball or football


I think Chicago is kinda reserving excitement til Rose stays healthy for a bit

Sure hpiong it's Bulls and Cavs. It seems like player health is the only obstacle. The NBA is the sport least prone to parity and upsets in the playoffs.

I want them to be at full strength. The Bulls have the better team this year. I don't want any excuses from LeLoser.

At this point, it's really more of a question as to whether they will go undefeated.

That's just silly. They'll drop a game or two.

Unless you meant the playoffs. Then you're right, that is a good question.

2 reasons 1. I think the Bulls can beat them. 2. I like the competitive side of sports. If the Bulls beat Cleveland without their best players there would always be that what if factor. One of the reasons that Lebron James left Miami I'm sure had to do with the fact that the Spurs beat them decisively with their best players participating. They left no doubt about who the better team was. I won't that same outcome for the Bulls

You got the Knicks in 3rd?

Got it. At this point I only care about LeBron being healthy. Very few remember that his path to multiple Finals appearances were made easier by injuries.

Love and Irving are impact players too. If they are out it will hurt Cleveland. I agree with the assessment regarding the Heat though. If the Bulls were at full strength I believe they take Miami.

This is as good a place as any to make my first entry, I guess. Not living in the Chicago area leaves me pretty ignorant to the inside stuff you guys are privy to, but bear with me. Now that I've found this place I figure I'll be up to speed by mid season.

On the topic, the Bulls WILL win it all if Rose and Noah stay healthy. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening. However, I DO see the B&B boys taking up the Rose slack, and if Joakim's minutes can be greatly reduced he may make it to the playoffs.

The Bulls may very well have the best bench in the East, and that's how the Spurs got it done last year. I hated to see Nate Robinson get shipped, but Brooks is an upgrade in my mind. I LOVE this guy! Instant offense. Dunleavy is an assassin! Taj is Taj and Kurt will have his moments as well. I don't know a damn thing about Mirotic, but he looks like a big stiff to me.
