Bulls win, they're the 6th seed.....if Philly loses, they're the 6th seed. I'm pretty confident at least one of these scenerios will happen. The Bulls only shot at advancing in the playoffs would be to play Orlando. Hedo's ankle was just sprained within the last week. Rashard Lewis has been TERRIBLE from downtown lately. Not to mention, the Magic backcourt is REALLY, REALLY weak with Rafer Alston and rookie Courtney Lee holding down the team. D-Rose and BG would have a field day with them. However, Brad Miller, Joakim Noah & Tyrus Thomas would have their hands full trying to match up with Dwight Howard. Not to jump the gun by any means because the chances of the Bulls beating the Magic in a series is very, very slim....but who would the Bulls play in the 2nd round if they pulled off an upset?
This game has just been elevated to MUST WIN. The Cavs will be resting Lebron James, Mo Williams, Z and Joe Smith tonight. MJ and Scottie Pippen wouldn't rest the last game of the season in fear of injuries. Cowards.
I think the bulls can play with the C's if KG is still hurt. I don't know if they will win the series, but I don't think the bulls get swept either. If Orlando wakes up and starts getting the ball to Dwight, they are just as tough for the bulls.
