It wasn't Scottie Pippen. He's not allowed to start practicing until Friday. After the younger Bulls held their first practice session on Tuesday, they professed their high expectations for the season. That hasn't happened at the Berto Center since Phil Jackson and Dennis Rodman were still around. "We have all the pieces now," Jamal Crawford said. "If we don't win, there are no more excuses. Our fans deserve better than that. If we don't go to the playoffs, we'll be disappointed." "I think myself and this team are definitely in store for a great season," said center Eddy Curry. "I think the sky's the limit for us. We're ready to step up and claim that role of being one of the top teams in the East." Is that a playoff guarantee? "I think it's pretty close to a guarantee," Curry answered. "I don't like to guarantee anything. But if I wanted to bet it, I'd bet that we make it to the playoffs this year." "I'm loving it, coming in here with everybody having the attitude of us winning ballgames," Tyson Chandler said. </div> It's nice to see they've got a very positive attitude about all this. They know what they have to do to make the playoffs and are prepared to go for it :thumbsup:
