bulls vs cavs early thoughts /discussion

[Kufismack]

nah if d rose legs don't snap like twigs on the floor i don't see how the cavs winning this.

 

[Boogie]

Start Iman and have JR come off the bench.

 

[MJ Truth]

I think the earliest start date for the 2nd Round is Saturday, May 2nd

Bulls-Cavs Game 1 then the Mayweather fight, and I'll probably watch Avengers 2 in between .

That's HIGHLY likely with Rose.

 

[Raquinotj]

Right because 3 wins and a likely sweep isn't convincing enough.

Don't lie to yourself breh. That 3-0 hasn't been as easy as it looks. You never expected a team full of NOBODIES to be hanging around in late in the 4th Quarter in all 3 games. With LeBron playing 42 minutes per game and Irving 40. This was supposed to be a scrimmage series.

im thinking cavs in 7. anyone thinking the cavs are gonna win in 5 is kidding themselves. these teams are pretty much alike. this isnt just a derrick rose team. gasol beasting putting up double doubles. much better fit than boozer. jimmy butler a monster on defense and can drop 20. snell is legit and then you still got mirotic. cavs have their work cut out for them on defense. they have to defend the whole court. not just rose

Bulls in 6.

This is exactly what I expected. The star players minutes increase (like every team in the playoffs), Boston stays competitive with coaching and hustle, and the Cavs sweep them despite it. Why be concerned every game isnt a blowout because of who we play next round? Thats stupid

 

[Wargames]

You not feeling the Clippers/Spurs?

That's been the best so far...

Its a good series but I think Bulls/Cavs will be more intense due to the Bulls history playing against teams with Lebron on it. It might be the closest thing we see to a rivalry series this year.

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Bulls in 5 if Mirotic plays. Gotta strange feeling this might be the years the Bulls make the finals, they won't win but they'll make it unfortunately .

 

[Kane]

LeBron owns the Bulls in the playoffs. 2010, 2011, 2013...and now in 2015...

The 2010 Bulls were an 8th seed. And in 2013 Nate Robinson was our best player.

2011 is the only time Lebron beat a contending Bulls team, and back then we didn't have All Star Jimmy Butler, Gasol, or a player like Mirotic. It was essentially D. Rose vs Miami. Lebron has never faced a Bulls team with this many weapons on offense.

 

[Panther]

Cavs in 5... Chicago doesnt have Lebron James

Gonna be physical and a lot of shyt talking

 

[Hoganese]

The Bulls are going to be in some trouble if they keep playing Mirotic at the 3. Regardless, this series goes 6 or 7.

 

[William F. Russell]

Bulls in 7 when it probably should be in 6. I feel the refs will win an additional game for LeBron.

As posters have noted before me, LeBron has never faced a team in the playoffs with as many weapons on offense as the Bulls have this season.

Moreover, I have a strong feeling Thibodeau will out-coach and expose Blatt. And this is before we start talking about the Bulls' defense.

 

[LexDiamonds]

Cavs cant pull away from a team(Celtics) that has Nobody near Rose/Noah/Gasol/Buttler talent level. Not the same playing vs Luigi Datome, Jonas Jerebko, tyler Zeller and to top it off, the go to guy is Evan Turner.


Bulls in 6 or 7.

Bulls are going double OT with the Bucks
