I could see the Bulls losing to a 4-5 in a regular year, but the 4-5 seeds in the East are pretty ty, this season..

True. Maybe they'd beat Atlanta, but IMO Orlando would beat them. Howard would destroy Noah and Boozer.

Pacers can bring it back to Chicago 2-2, I'm confident. Bulls took care of homecourt.

I think Orlando has a great shot at beating Chicago. I think Atlanta would be gone in 4-5 games

He's even worse when he does football on Fox, he gets everyone mixed up and confuses the out of me.

[Kyle Orton]

Regardless, like any team built around a PG, they are not going to live up to playoff expectations.

[HarlemHeat37]

I originally thought Orlando could beat them, it's still possible, but Howard's supporting cast is so unbelievably ty, tbh..hopefully Orlando can get past Atlanta, they would give Chicago a tougher series..

[it's me]

bottom line.... bulls are a media creation... and refs won them a win at home.

Same here, though I think the Hawks could get it to game 6.

tbh Rose doesn't play like your typical PG though. Unlike most assist- PG's that you hate, rightfully so, Rose is capable of just taking over games himself. He's not gonna defer to his inferior teammates with the game on the line.

Good foul by Hibbert, Pacers hanging tough.

Shout out to romsey31, your team fought all the way.

thanks man, see you guys on thursday

[DJ Mbenga]

magic can definetely beat them.

[NewJerSpur]

Collison should be a go for Game 3, if it were the Finals or the Pacers were playing for the #8 seed on the last game of the season I think he would've went back out there.

[daspurs]

Goes to show you how overrated the regular season is . This series will go 6 , and if orlando wins their series against atlanta they will beat chicago in the second round . A damn shame we probably wont see a miami-chicago ecf tbh ..

He'll have to settle for crappy shots at the end of games against a good defensive teams that can gameplan around the shortest player on the other team. either Boston or Miami will shut Rose down in the 4th quarter if Chicago makes it that far.

[Kyle Orton]

Rose also better develop a more complete offensive game in the next few years, he doesn't just rely on good athleticism to dominate, he relies on freak of nature athleticism to take over, athleticism that'll be gone by age 28.

Chris Paul, Derrick Rose, and JASON KIDD dominating the playoffs..

DOK U MAD?

None of them will be in the finals, with 1 at most being in the conference finals.

[Axe Murderer]

the reason I think PG's like Williams, Nash, Paul, etc. have failed over the years is because they always defer to much lesser guys with the game on the line (lol Gennaro Pargo) when they should just take it themselves. The difference with Rose is with the game on the line, that ball isn't coming out of his hands unless he's double teamed. He has the capability of getting a shot off against anybody so I could see him turn into the Kobe/Wade/LeBron 4th quarter closer role unlike other PGs

tbh Chris Paul didn't actually defer that game and played like the closer he's capable of being
