    Since they swept Miami and the Rockets have a similiar team to the Heat, I was just wondering what yall think. Personally I think they would lose in 4 or 5, because of the matchup of Gordon/T-Mac and Battier/Deng those two are the best players on their team but obviously it wouldnt work out. The only advantage I see that they have in the lineup is Hinrich, but I dont think he could score 30 pts in each game of the series, what do yall think?

    They have a great shot. The Rockets aren't a phenomal team. I've actually been overrating them. I could see the Bulls wiping the floor with them in 4 or 5 actually.

    I dont think it matters. we dont know if the rockets are even going to beat the jazz. But bulls beat pistons in 6 baby!!!! Matchups dont matter when you play the bulls because we play with very little iso and ALot of ball movement. If we played 1 on 1 ball the heat wouldve swept us

    We could've said the same thing about the Heat series before they got swept. They're just an all-around good team.

    The only way to win against the Rockets is if the other team is a great defensive team such as (Jazz, Spurs, Pistons) OR fastbreaking and taking Yao out, but Bulls dont do either really, I don't know how yall think the Bulls can beat the Rockets but I dont really watch the Bulls much so I dont know much about their team. Hopefully we can see in the Finals, Best of luck to the Bulls, even though I am going for the Pistons. lol Gl though

    Do you watch basketball? Have you been watching Television? Because thats exactly what we are. We run and we are the first/second best defensive team in the league. LOL! so your saying that the bulls could beat the rocs.

DIdnt i fuckin mention that I dont watch the bulls u fuckin dipshit.. Read before you fuckin post..</div>

    Dont get mad at me because you posted on a topic you know nothing about. and you basically said in your first post that the bulls is a team that could give the rocs some trouble with their great D and running stlye of play.
    And chill with all of the F bombs because your out of pocket with that. And you could get kicked off of these boards for it. So you might want to edit that post before a mod sees it.

    Dont get mad because the jazz handled you guys today. Like I said worry about the jazz and not the bulls. Because the bulls swept their series and have a week off.

    I never said the Bulls were a good defensive team.. They arent.. AND I didnt say this was a finals matchup or anything did I? I just said if it was a first round matchup (like if the Rockets were in the east) how would it be? And TODAY, we played on saturday? The jazz didnt handle us at anything.. It doesnt matter because they will lose, I dont need to worry, I expected this to be a 6-7 game series because of their defense, something the bulls didnt have.. I wanted opinions of what people think if this was a series and I questioned your response, thats it.. Your the asking me if I watch basketball.. I have watched more basketball than you ever will..

    Stop posting because your showing that you know nothing about basketball with this statement. Stop it! Your losing all credibility with each post. Do yourself a favor and just log off for the day.

    We were the number defensive rebounding team in the NBA.. defensive rebounding is not defense.. All im trying to say is the matchups would not favor the Bulls and that would be reason for the loss.. If you really look at it, 3 of the 5 starters matchups favor Houston, thats all im trying to say.. and given how much our bench sucks, most of our points comes from our starters anyway so that would be even more.. We obviously are a way better defensive team than the bulls thats why I'd favor us over them, but yall have some pretty interesting facts that I didnt know because i dont watch the bulls.

    Bulls dont play 1 0n 1 ball we use ball movement. If matchups were an issue the heat wouldve swept us.

    If you dont watch the bulls how can you post in this thread and how are you a basketball fan and not watch atleast 1 game from each series?
    Like I said stop posting for the day.
