yes

IDK.. I still have the Celtics and Heat over them. Though they've played excellent, far beyond my expectations thus far.. I just don't have that much faith in them in a 7 game series over those two teams.

People need to stop pushing this agenda. The Celtics are just better. But hey, nothing wrong with being #2.

What agenda? I'm not pushing anything tbh.. I too believe the Celtics are the best team in the east. Just saw this poll on the Daily Dime just now, and thought why not make a thread about it..

Not taking shots at the Celtics or propping up the Bulls by any means.

People need to stop pushing this agenda. The Celtics and Heat are just MUCH better. But hey, nothing wrong with being #3.

Fixed.

I would agree that celtics are better but bulls are playing better atm.

What agenda?

The Bulls have become the flavor of the month, since the buzz around the Heat has quieted some. So ESPN is hopping on board.

They are a very good team. But slow the horse a little. Prove it in the playoffs.

they aren't the Cavs of the past 2 years IMO, but that doesn't mean they're a shoe-in to beat the Celts or the Heat for that matter either. I don't really hold the Heat at the same level as the Celts, but clearly any team is in for a hectic series with 3 of the best players in the league on the same roster.

The Bulls just baffle me. I'm still having trouble believing they are as good as they have been this year. In any case, they can definitely beat anyone not named Boston (Miami, Orlando are unproven as far as I'm concerned). Boston's the only question mark.

damn those people in Massachusetts are tripping joe

Fixed.

Lol, "MUCH better".
The Heat have sure proved that this season!

Celtics better than the Bulls?

Maybe at playing nursing home bingo or something, but not at basketball.

Rose is in a different stratosphere than Rondo
Noah is better than any combination of Boston's scrub centers

Boozer and Garnett are a wash

Allen/Pierce definitely over Bogans/Deng

Bulls bench >>> Celtics bench

Bulls record >>> Celtics record despite more injuries.

I'd say Bulls in 6 only because they take it easy a few games after going up 3-0.

Wrong

Saying they have had more injuries doesn't make it true, especially when they havent and currently have 0 injured players...
