Let us recap all the teams with no excuses this postseason

[TheMan]

To say the Thunder, Bulls and Heat have no excuses is pretty idiotic. OKC is without their best player and reigning MVP and also their third best player is out, Chicago doesn't know what they have in their best player and Miami lost their best player to injury early in the season and have been struggling with injuries.

The Hawks and Cavs have no excuses in the East and out West it's GS.

Stop making excuses and live with the championship or bust expectations attached to your team

Stop making excuses and live with the championship or bust expectations attached to your team

I would love for us to have that championship or bust expectations bro, but Rose is still trying to get back to his MVP form. He has shown flashes that the athleticism is still there and as long as he doesn't suffer any more major setbacks, (the knee issues he had this season were to be expected) I think next season we'll see him be more consistent and play close to his MVP form.

Having said that, reports coming from the Bulls camp have stated that he has looked really good in practice and Rose has said he isn't feeling any more pain in his knee and is feeling the best he's felt in a long time. If he plays at 80-85% of what he's capable of, then we've got a legit shot at coming out of the East. OTOH, if he struggles, I don't see us beating ATL or CLE.

the only team that should be labeled no excuses is the Cavs.
