    hmm.. seems to me that the Bulls overrated..
    i'm looking at these guys.. and i am sorry – but they don't look great..
    seems like everybody.. i was watching this Barkley video a few days back.. and he was like..

    "bulls are easy-peezy in the EAST" "the Cavs can't match them... "

    i am sorry, but Gasol was ALREADY washed-up LAST year..

    kinda was year before.. how does a big-man get faster AND better!? (mistake FA signing)

    you need to average at least 4 players in double figures a game to dominate.. usually 5

    i think Washington would beat them again in a playoff..
    too early to tell.. but i am NOT amazed

    garbage-town ORLANDO are holding their own in Chicago..
    defense pourous against a bad team. maybe they come alive and kill the Magic in the 4th,
    but i am still not impressed.

    not sure how deep they can go with or without Rose

                    i think so...

                    1) hard to find continuity with Rose out over other game (he has missed 5 so far)

                    2) Gasol looked old last night.. 4-15
                    it happens to everyone, but he is mid-30s
                    and a 7-Ft big man

                    big men slow down and degrade more rapidly..

                    i wonder how this will look in Chicago in a few months.
                    I kind of expect Rose to have a big injury. so delicate

                      Rose just can't do it.
                      don't expect he will win a Championship or a 2nd MVP... he just doesn't have that mind it appears..

                      i can't believe Gasol is playing more minutes than him.. much older
                      Rose is too brittle for a small man

                      even with Rose not being the man, Bulls very good team

                        Stupid foul on Monte Ellis shooting a 3 at the end of regulation cost them the game. The Bulls don't look great..... it's a long season. Give them a chance to get healthy and gel a bit. Same story with Cleveland.

                          i certainly expect Bulls to win the Division, but Rose is missing that last chip in his head
                          that puts him over the top

                          but you are right.. there is plenty of ball left..

                            It's all about the playoffs for the Bulls. We all know what they can do in the regular season and they will probably win the division this year but the real question is can they beat a good team in a 7 game series?

                              the only people that can use that line are champions
                              rose is far from a champion

                                Truth be told, the Bulls do not need Rose as much as they once did...the major concern for any bulls fan is whether or not Tibs realizes the regular season is not as important as the post....these guys will more than likely be out of gas by the time they reach playoffs...Jimmy Butler is the best player in the league right now...no flaws in his game...

                                  After watching last nights game I can tell you that Tibs still doesn't realize this.

                                    Butler is fantastic.. Bulls making HUGE mistake by not respecting and giving him the $$$

                                    he will leave... wonder if he ends up in Cleveland?

                                    they do need Rose, however.. they require the explosiveness of both Butler AND Rose to win a Ring..
                                    it's about the defense not knowing what to do, based on the amount of options the Bullls present.

                                    Butler with an aging Gasol and after 90 games id a no-go vs. younger faster teams...
                                    Bulls could never hang with GSW in a Finals, if Rose is playing poorly or not playing at all

                                    imo

                                      I can say this about Butler...he is the only guy in the league that can shutdown Lebron...for lengthy periods at a time...Gasol is clearly a new man now that he is out from under Kobe's thumb...I hope Laker fans realize how special a player he was...

                                          DISASTROUS LOSS to Warriors...

                                          i really thought they would do better... i was expecting the 3Q to last a whole half.. yikes.

                                          Rose is AWFUL. his mind is mush now. Confidence = SPLAT
                                          cannot hit the BIG shot when he has to.

                                          1-7 from 3-Pt. Range

                                              The Warriors are simply in a different class....they are putting "distance" between themselves and most of the league...and let us remember...they went into Miami last year and made a fool out of Lebron and company...I expect more of the same this year...who in the East can beat them? The only question that remains now is whether or not the Spurs can beat them this year...

                                                i think this year's Cavs can be better than last year's Heat (speed/legs/defense)
                                                Wade just could not keep up with the young guys.. puts pressure on everything else..

                                                everybody buying in.. at an early age, they will grow more into it. Like learning a foreign language as a child,
                                                as opposed to studying one as an adult.

                                                Cavs will be awesome, i expect (end of this season and beyond)
