Werd. It's not easy losing 2 starters. Curry was just starting to make an impact this year! And Deng is fckn awesome.

If they can sustain that kind of quality of play, they have a shot at winning it...

I'm pullin for chicago, but either way it will be Miami and Detroit in the East finals.
The west is iffy, I'll say Phoenix and San Antonio reach the finals there (but I'll be pulling for the Sonics)

Phx vs Seattle for the WCF would be an awesome series.

But, the Bulls did win two games before and so, they have the ability to win. I still gotta believe!

i dont like comparing anyone to jordan.. but t-mac is showing signs.. i know he hasnt won any rings or anything but the performance he has been putting through out this series is just crazy

the wizards have shown improvement but losing that lead in the 4th quarter almost gave me a heart attack.
even if we don't advance i think that this was a great year for the wizards in a long time.
it feels good to actually want to watch your local nba team.

Try a little under 17.

But, still...17 is an awful lot to replace. That and plus he takes up real-estate in the paint, someone no one on the Bulls has right now...
