will bull catch sixers for final playoff slot

[ducks]

With nine games left, the Bulls (33-40) trail Philadelphia (33-38) by a game for the Eastern Conference's eighth and final playoff spot. After hosting Indiana on Tuesday, Chicago has back-to-back games against the 76ers -- at Philadelphia on Wednesday and at the United Center on April 8. The Bulls and Sixers have split the first two games.

The 10th-place Celtics (30-43) trail Chicago by three games and are all but out of the playoff race.

Nope. Sixers will keep the final playoff spot then get swept by the Pistons in the first round.

God this team is frustrating! :pctoss

As the reporter on the Sixers for Basketball News Service (www.hoopsworld.com) the answer honestly is = who knows?

Team is maddeningly inconsistent. One thing is thier favor is the return to form of Dalembert as at least a 10 10 and 3 player after Cheeks banished him for weeks.

I think the sixers keep it..I hope so anyway. The bulls play a really physical game, and it's liable to hurt somebody. Plus I don't wanna have to read or hear about Scott Skiles whining about the pistons again.
