The Chicago Bulls are a team that is celebrated for playing "playoff basketball" in the regular season. They are scrappy, they are intense, they defend hard. Unfortunately, when the playoffs come EVERY team plays that way. So the Bulls without their star guard Derrick Rose have problems. I think this year will be no different. When you add in the fact Bulls center Joakim Noah is not 100% I like Brooklyn chances a lot. Brook Lopez and gang should be able to take this series in 6 games. PJ Carlisemo came in mid season and got the Nets playing better, they will be rewarded with their first playoff series win in ages.

I'd like to see the Bulls win this series, purely to set up an intense rivalry series against the Heat in the next round. I'm waiting to see if Rose plays, and if he does, what impact he makes. If he doesn't then I feel the Bulls in 6 or win the decider.

That being said, I think the Nets might have too much for the Bulls if Rose doesn't return and Noah is still sidelined. If Lopez, Williams and Johnson play to their potential it will take a lot of big performances from the Bulls to stop them.

Brooklyn blowing Chicago out by 26 points with 6 minutes left in the 3rd. Told yall that "we play playoff basketball in the regular season" stuff wasnt gonna help Chi when the playoffs really do start. Everybody picks up the intensity so you gotta do more. Who is gonna step up for Chi? Boozer? Noah? Puh-leeze.

Instant classic right there. Brooklyn should be ashamed of themselves. Made the whole borrough look soft with that choke job. A team with D Will, Brook Lopez, & Joe Johnson shouldnt be losing to a team featuring Kirk Hinreich and Nate Robinson. This series is over, Bulls will see Miami next round. Nets are a mess.

    • Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.

    • Ah, the ol Cam Newton hating.  I will give you credit, the week of pretending to be a Daniel Jones super fan is a very clever way to disguise your hatred of Cam.
