I think the Heat, Pacers, Nets, and Knicks are easily better.

Hope for 5th, but we'll see what :rose: does.

5th??? That would mean we get some injury trouble again.

If the Bulls stay healthy I think second is the worst case!

3rd- Pacers 2nd Heat 1st


I wouldn't say the Nets are "easily better" Fisch, you could argue either side is better, but neither is significantly better than the other. Same with Knicks.

1st. They are clearly a fantastic regular season team when healthy and Miami is not repeating last years regular season performance. Indiana is very good, but imo not as good as the Bulls.

LoL, dont lie.
:lol:

I don´t lie, Miami doesn´t care about the regular season much and I think Indiana won´t be able to keep the pace over 82 games.

The NY teams, I don´t think are contenders. The Knicks don´t have what it takes and the Nets should need a year to find themselves.

I don't really see the Knicks being a real threat, they're good but not that good. Bkn is good on paper we have to see how they gel, so it's between the Bulls if healthy, the Heat, and the Pacers with us being in a battle with Miami for 1st

I voted 2nd, for me it depends on how well Beasley and Oden contribute. If both of them do what they're capable of doing then the Heat should get 1st. If they aren't really factors then I think we can get 1st.

Agreed 100%

Three reasons why I don't think we'll finish higher than 4th, and it has nothing to do with the Nets, Knicks, Pacers, or Heat.

1) I think we wont stay healthy enough.

2) If we stay healthy, I anticipate a trade that will shake this team up, and we wont notice the benefit of the trade this year(even if we somehow bring in better players).

3.) Rose's return will cost us a lot of games early on. He's the one player Thibs can't bench because of bad decisions or shooting.

I completely disagree that the Knicks or nets are easily better. IMO, the Bulls have the talent to have the best overall record, but I think Thibs will take his food off the pedal this year and that'll cost us some games.

i would hope not....i understand he'll be a bit rusty but he better shake it quick

they won 66 games last year....oden and beas dont matter

what matters is if they actually try....the heat coast allot....and coming off back to back i can see them taking it even easier so we could get #1...but i think we should take it easy aswell....health is #1 priority this year...no more all or nothing reg season games....save that for the playoffs

2nd. I think if the Bulls avoid health issues and get production from Dunleavy, while Butler improves a bit more, they should be among the top toughest teams on anyone's schedule. I think the Pacers are up there, but it really comes down to how they respond after last season's late run. Are they really contenders, or pretenders? Teams will be bringing their best against them and let's see how they handle it. The same can be said for the Knicks who I think are a step behind them. The Nets will be interesting.
