    Props to Coach Thib, keeps his Redhead in suit and tie on the end of the bench....

    I've been pulling for the Thunder, but those who appreciate how the Spurs developed their legacy will have a hard time not liking the Bulls. The only trade off is a dominant big for a dominant guard.

    In addition, the Spurs lost to the team who lost to the team who is favored to lose to the team who'll probably lose the NBA Finals to Chicago.

    We were that close.

    Not only that, but the Bulls players had so much heart. They were playing hard every play and everyone was not afraid to play hero. With the Spurs, all you had were guys standing around, hoping for a hero.

    This is a how a #1 seed was suppose to play like.

    Bulls have the athletes to pull it off. I've thought they were going to win it all for quite some time. I love the way they play.

    I've been on the Bulls bandwagon ever since the playoffs started. I wanted them to make the NBA Finals (unless the Spurs got there which didn't happen).

    I really really respect their style of play. I like how Thibs doesn't tolerate mess ups on defense kinda like how Pop use to do it.

    IMO, Boston didn't fall cause Perk left. They fell cause Thibs left.

    I'm sure it helps when you don't play out of position, like genious pop had him do in sa.

    Not impressed, especially with regards to comparisons to Spursball. You got Rose and a bunch of losers playing Leastern Conference stumbleball.

    The Heat are a poorly coached team with a gimmicky offense. These same Bulls bumbled their way past Philly and Atlanta.
    Wake me up when they play a real team.

    If you don't play defense you don't play. What happened to that guy? If you could score like Michael Jordan, but didn't play any defense, Pop would keep your ass on the bench. That's how defensive oriented Pop was. Where is that?

    We weren't close at all. We had no defense or size. The Thunder would have beaten us had we made it past the 8th seed.

    Defense and no small ball- even when the opponent goes small.

    He'd be too busy benching people for no-D playing gingers because they have 'corporate knowledge'.

    It's kind of depressing knowing Thibbs will stay with his big lineup while Pop would've played into the opponent's hands by going small.

    Give Pop this same Bulls team and he probably puts Bogans at the 3, Taj at the 5, and Scalabrine at the 4 to space the floor. Brewer would be glued to the bench, and no one would know who Omer Asik is.

    Oh, defenitely. Pop would find a way to get Scalabrine his 20 minutes a game.
