    I use to read a lot into power rankings, before they became a complete joke. Honestly, how much can you predict about a team when you have not seen them play a game that actually means something? Who knows how good we will be this season, or how we will adjust to the lose of Curry. We have done well in the preseason which is great, but opening day will be the beginning of the true journey. Everyone is always sleeping on the Bulls, so looks like they will have to prove everyone wrong again...

    I think the Bulls should be higher than the Knicks and Sixers. I like the Knicks a lot and I really like the Bulls but I do think that the Bulls are the better team, they'res too much media scrutiny in NY and the players always end up having issues. I think the Marbury/Crawford backcourt doesnt pair too well they should include Crawford in that deal with Portland to acquire Ruben Patterson.

    The Bulls may need some help in their frontline with Sweetney, Tyson, and Songaila being the only people they could play there. Othella might be a 4 but they need a low post presence off the bench.

    I usually do not read into the power rankings for the NBA until after the first month of the season. You can't look too much into them now because there is nothing to base them on, except just speculation.

    Wow, those are some whacky rankings. It makes me wonder whether or not the people at ESPN actually know what they're talking about, or if they just pull this crap out of their ass come deadline day at the office. Either way, those rankings are total garbage and I don't buy em at all.

    Power rankings are rarely accurate after the first 7 teams. No one puts in the time on the less popular teams. So its not even an educated guess its just looking at a teams roster and saying their players are more talented than theirs ( in their opinion).

    F these rankings and.....

    GO BULLS!
