I think we will win in 6. Bulls are tough and deep, but they don't have the experience that Detroit has.My Keys:-Tayshaun ABSOLUTELY has to contain Luol Deng.-Get Rasheed involved more offensively-Use experienced vets (Hunter, McDyess) more.

Detroits keys are simple:1. Dont let Chicago get open 3's. They will hit them.2. Control the pace. If Chicago starts playing at there pace, were beat.3. Get whoever Big Ben is guarding outside. All of our big guys are capable of playing outside, and dragging Big Ben out of the paint can only helpI think it will be a great series but Detroit will win in 6.
The Prince-Deng matchup will be great to watch. Will be fun to watch them try to contain eachother. I think the Pistons will take it though. The know what to do in the playoffs while the Bulls are still figuring things out.

And since when do season series come into play? It seemed to happen with the GS Warriors and Dallas series
Regular season means nothing anymore. Piston playoff basketball is much more intense and the Bulls are about to find that out.

I agree with what everyone said. Also, we need to look to get Chauncey to post up on Kirk. The Tay-Deng matchup will be great. I'm so excited for this game/series. DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETROIIIIIIIIIIT BASKETBALLLLLLLL!!!!
Do you realize that the games against the Bulls, Chris Webber didn't play? He was a scratch for the latest game.The X-Factor of the series is whoever wins the Luol Deng and Tayshaun Prince matchup, definitely.I would love to see Hinrich guard Hamilton, and Gordon guard Billups, and Chauncey would post on GordonI want Webber to play outside for the midrange game. Big Ben will have to move outside, just like you said. But Dyess and Maxiell will struggle with Big Ben in the middle.
the Golden st-Dallas, Chicago-Pistons comparasions are bullsh*t. these are two different types of series. the Pistons are a team that take what they do for real at this timebut I've been telling everyone, Pistons will win in 5. no games will be played with any team from here on out.
^^ u really think your gonna beat us in 5.. atleast say 6 or 7....I think pistons will win in 7.. But me being a bulls fan theres something tellin me that we can do it . Being we got our asses kick in game one we SHOULD play so much better.. If we still playlike crap game 2... pistons win in 6
5 Games, we killed you in game 1 and two...I wouldnt be surprised to see a sweep now, but I dont think it would happen. The Pistons will get either 3 or 4 but its over in five. plus, as a Bulls fan, you wouldnt want your season to end at home in six would you? so let me just be nice and say 5. sorry.
I dont care if it ends at home. its not like it was a bad season for us ... and if we can get it 2 6 I wouldnt be to disapointed. Yeah u killed us the 1st two games. lets just see what happens in chicago. Bulls should come out with more fire... crowd on there side.
Sorry, but Pistons fans are laughing at us right now. We look like a joke right now. Prove me wrong, Game 3...
You better hope you guys get this one tonight, or it will be over. I think the Bulls could take that game four because a sweep seems unrealistic right now because the Pistons generally let a game go by playing lazy, but they arent in that mood, but just out of pride and this years good year, the Bulls should be able to take game 4 and have it all end in Detroit. this is a 5-game series at most. the pistons are in their heads and dominating the bulls right now. if its a close win for Detroit tonight, then the bulls should be able to bundle up enough confidence to win game four and the pistons should be able to wrap it up at home.Game 3: Pistons win by 7 or lowerGame 4: Bulls win by 7+-Game 5: Pistons wrap it up with another blowout
No one thought they would be down this far of a hole from the start. I dont see a reason why the Pistons wont sweep. They have dominated, and have all the momentum in the world.
That was just a bad way to end the half, the Bulls went on a 11-1 run to take a 7 point lead. I think the refs called some stupid fouls on Billups and he has to be careful in the 2nd half. I mean of course there is always the 2nd half and the boys were down by 19 in game 3 and we all know the end result. So let's just hope we can take control of the 2nd half and avoid going baCk to Detroit for a game 5 so they can get some rest for the next round. HoLLa baCk
