    Bulls ML

    Bulls not built for 82 games, built for the playoffs and the slow pace.

    Jimmy Butler best player in the series, and gets it done in game 1.

    Bulls weren't built for anything

    GM's have no clue what they are doing

    hire a coach that says... hey we want to shoot 3's and be fast, athletic and run...

    Front Office says... yep!

    here's Dwayne Wade, Rajon Rondo, Michael Carter-williams and a bunch of slow unathletic young guys

    go!

    I agree coach Hoiberg gets a raw deal. Ranked the worst coach by some group or other recently. Even K.McHale giving him a hard time in the pre-game.

    dribble drive game has been strong, attacking boston's lack of shot blocking. But honestly they have not played well. not making any jumpers, butler invisible. offensive rebounding has been huge, but not doing a great job keeping boston off the offensive glass on the other end.

    he comes in and deals with goofballs like Noah, D. Rose, and Jimmy Butler calls him out publically a few games into his career.

    Fred hasn't had alot of help on any front

    team easily could have folded mid season, but they kept fighting.

    and not for nothing, they were not even projected to make the playoffs. you could argue they have overacheived just by being here.


    that said, i dont get why they did not just trade butler and tank, 2 top 10 picks in this draft could really jumpstart a rebuild.

    Mirotic shouldn't be playing this poorly -he's played in big/ pressure cooker games for Spain.

    Bulls fully capable of winning series. had to take them with great value. +870 to win in 6. +1030 to win in 7. Not often that an 8 seed has as much talent as a 1 seed. coaching discrepancy is big, but if bulls can slow Thomas, hard for the celts to win with other options. Bulls defense is good when motivated. Hope they take game one.

    He's been in playoffs with Bulls too. He's just so up and down you never know. One game looks like an all-star; the next looks like he couldn't play in D-League. Baffling.

    These touch fouls are so irritating. When the defender is trying NOT to defend and gets run into for a 3pt play.

    mirotic is so all or nothing.

    when he makes shots he often has big rebounding games and will get steals and blocks....but when hes not making shots it like he just checks out of the game.

    portis playing well, should just finish the game with him.

    1. What site do you use?
    2. Wish you hadn't taken bulls, 0% chance they advance from this round.

    Great call on Bulls ML. Not sure what Marcus Smart is doing in the game in the final 5 minutes. He can't hit a barn with his shot. Horford was not a good signing for this team.

    they know they are not that good. If they thought they were really good they would have made a move to get better and win now.

    They decided to keep the picks they have from brooklyn and build for the future.
