    Bulls will lose less then 10 games

    Best team in the east and it isn't even close. Rip showed tonight he fits right in and adds the dynamic they were missing last year. Can go 11 deep so the schedule won't be an issue. Best team defense in the last decade. get your futures in now.

    I agree that they will finish in the top 2 record-wise. I just dont think they will get to the Finals.

    As long as they're healthy, but nobody can guarantee that.

    I will bet you 250 betpoints that the Bulls lose 10 or more games this season. Do you accept?

    Completely disagree. Bulls are Derrick Rose, and Derrick Rose only. Rose will keep them Top 4 in the East, but they have no Robin to Rose's Batman. RIP is over the hill, Deng is average, I can name 10-15 PFs better than Boozer, and Noah is a probably a top 7-10 center. Miami, Knicks, Boston all better IMO.

    I would like to see the 15 better than Boozer. He is a top 10 Power Forward in the league.

    I'll take this! More regular season wins, right?

    Just checked futures. I should be getting +2.5 wins. But I'd do it anyway. Bulls will win more games. O47.5 wins is money.

    They don't have the single other superstar, but they have a deep and talented cast, they play great team defense and great coaching. And Luol Deng is not "average", he really should have been an all-star last season. Backups at each position with Watson, Brewer, Korver, Gibson and Asik is as good of a bench you'll find.

    And just very simply, they led the NBA with 62 wins last season, and are incrementally better this season with Hamilton for Bogans. Whether they have the match to top the Heat this season is arguable of course, but otherwise your comments are silly.

    He's on the team, might be good someday, but won't crack the rotation much this season, barring injuries. Maybe they'll D-League him to get him playing time.

    Milwaukee I'll take you up on that. Regular season wins or eastern conference champions either one is good. Miami won't win 2 games in the playoffs against this bulls team

    Are you joking? The bulls were 2 missed shots at the end of regulation from completely flipping the series with Miami, and that was with an injured boozer, injured asik, and Keith bogans starting every single game.

    Barring injuries, this team is going to be unbelievably good. Being able to go 11 deep with Jimmy butler even just adds another dynamic for the tough schedule.

    you never confirmed our bet in the other thread? Second thoughts after you saw Lebron still has zero post game and bosh still has zero post game?

    Deng is a top 5 small forward in the league, and 10-15 PFs better than boozer??? Show me 10-15 PFs in the league who average 17-20 ppg like Boozer does



    also LMFAO @ Knicks and Boston better than the bulls. Rip is washed up but the 60 year old "big 3" isn't????

    I can't guarantee I will have any gold tokens that's why. I will deal with cash. I'm willing to go anything up to $2,000. You made this thread after the Bulls won a preseason game. I think that tells me everything I need to know about how long you've been watching the nba.

    Come up with a bet. It's clear that you and D2bets are both Chicago homers. I picked both Lakers and Boston advancing to the finals when I was here two years ago and I am unbiased in all my decisions.

    Lol. You think Boston is the second best team in the east, Miami is a dynasty, and the bulls suck. Not to mention your legendary status as a terrible gambler. You dont understand basketball. Oh, Miami has 2 great players so there a dynasty
    As I said, we can't exchange cash or we will be banned. Sbr seems to take that serious.

    I said Miami will become a dynasty. I never said the Bulls suck. You know I mean they are overrated.

    Go back through all my threads and count up my +/-. I guarantee I am up + units the last 2 years I posted here. Why do my threads get so much attention? All the posters on this site know my NBA knowledge. BTW I never once guaranteed the Heat would beat the Mavs in the finals. I guaranteed they would come out of the East.

    You want to make this a who leaves the forum bet if you're so confident? Or will you create a ghost?
