If Bulls sign Lebron and Bosh, can they beat the Lakers in a 7 game series?

[Andrei89]

Omg that bulls team would feast on the Lakers

Lakers struggled beating the Celtics although they out rebounded them everytime.

But i expected most of Laker fans to sya no. LoL

Lmao, LA's frontcourt would destroy this guys. The only team that can beat LA in 7 game series was Boston because they had length and physicality in the frontcourt. If you can't matchup against LA's size and versatility in the frontcourt then chances are you won't beat LA.

I rather go against LeBron/Rose than LeBron/Mo. We'll just pack the paint with Mo it's a little more tricky.

And Bosh can be stopped.

Boston didnt have much length or size. Chicago would have much more

LA destroyed boston's bigs but it still went all the way to a tight game 7. those bulls would be much better on the boards and in the paint. it would take away lakers biggest strenght (outside of kobe). Boston didnt have a big with noahs combination of size and mobility.

Outside of the bigs chicago is much better than either the lakers or the celtics. Chicago would kill teams as long as it is more than lebron isos.
Rose/Bosh pick and roll/pick and pop would be unstoppable as long as rose continues to improve his jumpshot

The Celtics lost because they couldn't rebound with the loss of Perkins. LA's frontcourt was not consistent in the finals. The reason why LA had trouble with Boston and Cleveland to a degree in the regular season was due to the physicality and length of their frontcourts. The frontcourt of Sheed, Perkins, and Garnett matchs up better against LA then Noah, Bosh etc. LA will simply overpower them if they are healthy.

Rose jumpshot is underated. dude was hitting all those shots during the Cavs series. Who did the Bulls draft this year ???

[dbugz]

No, because Bosh is too soft inside.

[beermonsteroo]

Your thoughts?

Rose/Lebron/Bosh/Noah vs Kobe/Gasol/Artest/Odom/Bynum

They would destroy them in 5 at max.

[game3524]

Do some of you guys even watch basketball? What makes LA so hard to beat is their size, versatility, and skill in the frontcourt. The frontline of Gasol, Bynum, and Odom is a matchup nightmare for every team in the league. Adding Lebron and Bosh doesn't solve that problem.

yea these bulls fans are just seeing the great talent and thinking it''ll be a sweep but what they aren't addressing is the major matchup issues...

The lakers have a defensive stopper in artest plus two towers in the middle...
The cavs have no one to guard kobe and their big men aren't nearly as intimidating...
Their frontcourt is severely overmatched on both sides of the ball...

Plus people keep comparing them to pierce/allen/KG but there's a huge difference here...Paul pierce and ray allen are excellent shooters while Lebron and rose are not. Lebron and rose are both drivers and won't be nearly as effective because unlike either of them, ray allen is one of the best off the ball runners in the league. He's the reason that system works.

Yeah and Who stops Rose and Lebron from dominating Gm ? Bulls have 2 Guys who can get to rim or score whenever they want the Lakers have one with Kobe and not so much if Lebron is Covering him..Bosh and Gasol cancel each other out although I am pretty Sure Bosh would get the Btter of Pau much like the Pre-injured KG.

[macpierce]

wow bulls bangwagon/lebron hipsters hoping on the bandwagon before july 1st ..............You would dare talk shit about beating a back to back champion when your "team" hasnt done shit in 12 years? ****ing pathetic

[Kingwillball]

Now if Bulls Trade Deng to Magic like Rumored for Pietris and Gortat than the Bulls would be untouchable. Pietris gives a Guy who can knock down Big Shots and Gortat another Big Body who can Bang with Gasol and Bynum. Bosh,Noah along with Gortat and Taj Gibson gives the Bulls the Best big Rotation in NBA.

Lebron and Rose will get theres, but please Bosh would not dominate Pau like Garnett did. KG is one of the best defenders of all-time, it is all about matchups. LA's frontcourt will have a much easier time against a frontcourt of Bosh and Noah then they did with Garnett and Perkins. IMO, as long as LA has the frontcourt advantage, they should be the favorites.
