They'll be alright. Championship team? Probably not but what do I know.
They will compete with Cleveland no doubt. In the West you have OKC and San Antonio. Cleveland has the King, a rookie and a very good PG. This is not the supporting cast of Miami. Wade is a HOFer. They are also thinner inside than LBJ's Miami team. It's on rose, but I think the Bulls would match up well.
San Antonio is tough, but they are a year older. They use there size to win and that is how the Bulls are nearly clones of SA.
OKC is the scariest. They have the 2nd best player in the NBA and he would cause the Bullz troubles. However, SA beat them with size in the paint and the Bullz could also!
I want Houston/Dwight Howard/Bosh to fall apart, no doubt due to Dwight's bad attitude. This should be a tough team if Dwight wasn't a loser at heart. All the physical ability but not the heart.
Bosh reupped with Miami not Houston. Houston is no threat.
Good timing Derrek Rose. You didn't want to play against Miami last year? *****. Now you want to come back now that you saw San Antonio figure him out?
I don't think that is case!
Derrek Rose is the Evander Holyfield/Lennox Lewis of basketball. Neither of those pussies wanted to fight Tyson until Buster Douglas beat him. Cowards. They didn't want to take on Tyson when he was at his best. They waited till the time was right to win the championship. Does Derrek think this is going to be a weak year in the East? At least Miami won't dominate like they did for 4 years in a row.
Not true. First Lennox Lewis wasn't around at that point and Tyson turned down Holyfield not the other way around!
I'm hoping this year it'll be Durant's time to win a ring. Hopefully the Spurs are done. I doubt they're going to repeat. They have never before but right now who would pick them to lose next year? Not me. Can't wait to see what happens.
After hearing the Durant praise of his mother (I cried), I have always admired Durant. I wouldn't mind seeing him win a championship. Just not at the expense of Chicago! I think you could be right it could be his year.
But the Bulls might go to the NBA championship but no way they win it all. I wonder what Vegas is giving them as far as odds compared to all the other teams. I know Miami went from 4 to 1 to 400 to one. No way they win next year.
We will see. It's a long season.
And how about my Pistons? Will they even make the playoffs?
Not a very good chance!
P.S. **** soccer. Boring.
My only beef with soccer is that lack of scoring (Germany vs Brazil excluded), but you have to admire that pure athleticism of players, the lack of commercial breaks (that is how you know it's not an American sport) and the constant sprinting up and down the field! It's not my favorite sport, but I respect it!
