Too bad we have 2 starters out or we might get a chance to see our best against a tough playoff team UN the East. We're 1-2 vs Atlanta and the Heat.
Tough game on the road. Hurts not having Rip, Luol and CJ at less than full strength. Glad Noah's back, though, and DRose, too! Too close to call, for me. But I think it will be a nice, entertaining game. Go Bulls!
My bad again. Philly is impressive. Gifted athletic guys at every position. They're deep, too. Collins is doing an excellent job.
That's a fun Philly team. I wish I knew them better. I feel like it's hard to take anything away from these games, besides entertainment. Oh, Jimmy Butler's game has an island of misfit toys feel to it. I think he's the smallest power forward (being asked to play shooting guard) in the league. I hope he's working on more traditional shooting guard vocabulary because I don't know if there's a place for him in the league if he tries to dive to the post at every opportunity.
