The Bulls are a very good deep team.

The future looks bright for the Bucks, haven't been able to say that in a long time.

I fully expect them to take game 4. If we could go ahead and finish this off, that would be great, but I just don't see this team allowing themselves to be swept. Unless this was just their best shot.

Anyway, I'm so happy to see Derrick looking like Derrick. I always knew he could get back to this and it's good to see it actually happening. Hope it keeps going cause there's a lot of crow that needs to be fed to a lot of people that doubted him.

I felt pretty confident they could beat them all year.. But man after struggling to guard the Bucks their defense will really have to pick up.

Can't really judge much from watching them play the Bucks, two different teams and matchups, and the Bulls tend to match their opponents pace most game. Celtics are playing the Cavs tough and the Bucks are playing the Bulls tough. If both teams advance I believe a healthy Bulls squad can beat the Cavs but it won't be easy, probably a lot of close games. The Cavs have so much talent on their team and when they're all clicking it's a deadly combo. Should be a very intense series.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - 1st Round Discussion Thread

Yea im not really asking just based off this series, im just curious how some feel about it. I havent watched a single game of the celtics cavs series, but prior to playoffs i had picked chicago to beat the cavs. I still want that to be true, but dang the cavs just got so much firepower between love, irving, and lebron, and chicago at times struggles to score too much for the offensive talent that they have. Granted clevelands d aint no where near milwaukee so scoring probably wont be an issue for chicago. i guess i just find it hard to believe that chicago could get past the "lebron hump". I think it goes down to 7 games, and since others seem to be fairly optomistic about chicago i suppose i'll keep them as my pick for now. But i was just curious how some bulls fans felt about there odds.

It's incredible that a team that forces as many turnovers as Milwaukee does hasn't made him pay for those passes. Tonight alone there was probably 10 instances where he jumped out of bounds and had no idea where he was going to pass and just somehow kept getting it to his teammates.

Yeah I agree with this. Chicago has to get Niko back and hope Joakim can at least get back to doing something on offense though. Milwaukee's been guarding him with Jared Dudley and Giannis and he's struggled to do much of anything. Even his passes have seemed off.

I think Chicago was my preseason pick for the title though. If they're clicking, I think they can beat Cleveland, especially if Rose is suddenly a good 3 point shooter.
