They haven't really shown any signs of improvement. They'd have to play close to .600 ball in the 2nd half to close up the gap assuming the other teams continue at their current pace and I just don't see that happening. There's always a chance since the East is so weak, but I'd start looking forward to next year if I were you.
Coach Skiles said he'll still consider it as long as it still is mathematically possible. I'm with Skiles on this guys.... I think thye WILL make it... haha. my high hopes.
I think it's possible, but it's gonna be hard, so take out the best in the roster, Bulls and you'll make the playoffs!
The Bulls are to inconsistent to make the type of run at the playoffs that it would take, I don't see them doing anything this year!
of course the bulls will make the playoffs, we're like the top team in the east, wait no the whole nba, as long as mj keeps dropping 30 pts per game, rodman keeps pulling those boards, and pippen plays his all around game with great bench support from kerr and kukoc, the bulls are looking at a 7th championship ring...oh wait what year is this? <--- still living in the past
I would consider us a playoff team if we didn't give up so many leads, but, no, we had to give up like 8 double-digit leads.
We have had games where we had over a 10pt lead and still lost. If we would of held on to those lead we may have been a more serious playoff contender. But now I'd say if we want to make the playoffs this season we would need to win 80% of our remaining games.

Boston lost tonight so by tomorrow IF thats IF we beat Sac Town we would be 5 1/2 out. What do you think about that.
Boston and LA played a real circus game together tonight. It gives you hope that if Boston is that bad we could catch up to them

Miami, and Philly are the teams that are tied for the 8th spot. As far as the Bulls making it, I highly doubt it. Their way too inconsistent, and don't have the players to do it. Miami and Cleveland will make a big run for it though.
I dont see this happenin homey, it will be crazy hard for them to even get back into contention for taht spot, Eddy Curry hasnt produced much, Jamal Crawford shoots to much but he is good, he hasnt proven that he can lead them though, I thought he would be gone by the all star break
