    **time to burn all nba futures wagers that don't say MIAMI HEAT

    knicks


    bulls


    thunder


    celtics and spurs only looked good because they were beating up on teams that didn't care

    the rest of the eastern conference playoffs should be forfeited, nobody's going to watch unless they are rooting for the heat to fail

    They do not matchup well with the Lakers or Celtics but probably will not have to play either

    How many of these types of threads/posts are you going to start?

    You're just coming off as a butt hurt Bucks fan. People said the same shit last year. The Bulls are more talented even without Rose than the Mavericks were last year... the team that is playing the best as a team will win it... could still be any of these teams

    Bulls, Heat, Spurs, Thunder, Lakers

    Durant and Westbrook might have something to say about that.

    Really? You don't see them playing Boston in the ECF now with Rose out for Chicago?

    Celtics are going to beat Bulls? Watson/Lucas are not terrible. Bulls will still be the favorite in that series... probably -180 or so.

    I give Boston a small edge in their next two series but if were 60% each series still only a 36% chance they make the ECF.

    I think Boston is favored too much vs. ATL, yes Chicago will be favored against Boston but I like Boston to win.

    um i think this is the only thread i've started like this. the bulls are more talented even without rose than last year's mavs? that's laughable. last year's mavs had future hall of famers jason kidd and dirk nowitzki, jason terry, tyson chandler (bulls should've never traded him), etc.

    i also started a thread saying take the heat at +310 to win the championship. was that a bad idea since it's down to +155 now?

    Give me Boston at +EV to knock out Chicago in the second round. Celtics don't mess around in the playoffs.

    so my picking the heat (who play 1400 miles away) is biased yet your picking of the bulls (your home team) is completely objective?

    Picking? I have faith in them... won't be risking a dime on the Bulls though. I'm also not guaranteeing anything. Heat MIGHT win... but to act like they are a lock is silly... they are no better than last year and didn't win last year.

    Rose was awful last year and 4 of those 5 games against the Heat were still winnable.

    If Watson/Lucas shoot well and Deng/Korver/Boozer/Noah play to their abilities, no reason bulls can't beat Heat in a series. Almost everyone had a bad series last year.

    3 years ago, even when the Bulls were awful and the Celtics were at their best, it still went to the wire.

    Bulls are a terrible match up for Boston and that will be shown if Boston can even get by Atlanta.

    I'm still excited for a Bulls/Heat series... I hope it still gets to that point. Watching John Lucas shoot lights out to knock out the Heat and Lebron would be one of the best NBA story lines I can think of... would be a perfect slap in the face to King James and would break up the Heat for sure.

    I'm pretty sure OKC blew the Heat completely out of the building when they came here. I think it was 16 point win.

    There is a lot basketball to be played. What if Wade gets injured? We all know Lebron isn't clutch.

    Miami doesn't have a big three. They have a big 2. Bosh is just a solid player.

    They play the games on the court. The people who think the Celtics will beat the Bulls are clueless.

    Bulls were 2-1 without Rose against Celtics in regular season. Honestly don't need him to beat them.

    I'm not betting any of them. My NBA betting stops when MLB starts...just found it odd Bulls were +300 with Rose out. Celtics win the East, imo. Lines are from BI.

    lol No one would call the Bulls the favorites. But to say they aren't the 2nd most likely is stupid if that is what you're insinuating.

    don't understand why everyone is throwing out regular season records, esp. in this shortened nba season.
    where a-lot of nba teams were just trying to get by into the regular season. The heats were fine with the 2 seed, they would rather rest their players, and not go out full force every game.
    i think you can just throw out all the regular season records at this point. OKC vs Heat @ OKC. Heat cared very little, OKC want to win to proof they could play with the big teams.

    same thing goes for chicago winning without rose. congrats they got through a regular season without him. almost impossible for them to get through a playoff series without him. Phillys got a dawn good defense, will be interesting to see the rest of this chicago series, and then then the boston series.
