Which means they'll be the #1 seed.

I don't even think it's a bold prediction. It's actually a lock. A Thibs coached team, with this roster, is gonna win 60+ in this Eastern conference.

They'll be the #1 seed and Vegas will have Lebron's Cavs as slight favorites, I'll say -120, when the Bulls play them in either the Eastern conference semi-finals or finals.

I won't make a Bulls vs. Cavs playoff prediction this early, but I know the Bulls will beat any of the other 6 Eastern playoff teams.

I need to see a finished Cavs roster before talking about a 1 seed.

If the Cavs get Love I think they are 1 seed.

That's why I'm here.

Cavs with Love: 58 wins and the 2 seed. Play the Bulls in the conference finals.

Cavs without Love: 52 wins and the 4 seed. Play the Bulls in the conference semi finals.

There you go. They don't even need to play the regular season.

I need to see Rose play a full year.

Let's package Rose and Taj and a future 1st for Love and Rubio.
