    Default Massive failure if healthy Bulls don't go deep into playoffs

    People have been giving Chicago pass for years cuz of injuries, now they are fully healthy(and added talent like Gasol and Mirotic) it would be complete failure if they don't advance deep into this playoffs.
    Also playing a decimated Cavs team. Lebron and friends always took care of injured Chicago, they need to do the same this time.

    Ok.


    Now make a thread saying the same thing about the Cavs. No excuses for them either, Lebron still has his "Pippen"


    LOL at decimated Cavs. We had our "Lebron" out for 3 odd years in the playoffs. That's the only legit pass.

    What does any of this even mean?
    This Chicago team has been playing together for years and years and have tons of playoffs experience. Now finally ALL of them are healthy and they've added bunch of new talent to the team.

    No excuses, I can't think of one reason why Chicago should get a pass if they lose this series.
    And with Love out and JR gifting them 2 games.

    This is their time.

    Tons of Playoff experience, they haven't been to the Conference finals since 2011, last time Rose was healthy in the Playoffs

    Butler, Mirotic, Snell, Pau haven't been playing together for years, the hell you talking bout?

    And Noah isn't 100%, neither is Rose.

    Love being out and JR and Perk missing games due to on-court antics makes this series pretty even, with Cavs still having the two best players on their team. The only hope is that Thibs and the overall roster comes through and Rose has a game or two, where he looks like his MVP self and Butler is able to somewhat contain James from going HAM on them.

    Bulls are given a shot because they have the better front court and overall defense plus chemistry and Thibs. But Cavs still have HCA, Lebron, Kyrie and a stacked roster of their own, even with Love injured.

    Cavs don't have a stacked roster now Love is out, and JR smith missing 2 games, thats kind of the point...

    He misses the two games they play at home...I expect them to split the first two games...Bulls don't have a healthy Rose or a healthy Noah and Butler seems to be their most consistent player aside from Pau, which is a problem to me because Pau is known for disappearing in the Playoffs (2011, 2012 second round).

    It's going to be an even series and I'm seeing at least 4 games being decided in the Final two minutes of the game, neither team is the clear favorite here.

    ok, except for the usual bs some of ya'll bring to the table, back to the topic at hand.

    Chicago have 4 all stars, they have a much better bench and are all healthy. This is the year for them to do something.
    Forget about Cleveland and Lebron for a second, let's talk about the expectations on the Bulls.
