Gasol needs to do serious work this game. If we're putting Dunleavy on Lebron for most of the game, hopefully we make the adjustment to not let Varejao have 10 layups as a result. If we can get Dion Waiters to get very shot happy, that will play into our favor.

The only way I see the Bulls winning is that this will be the second part of back to backs for Cleveland.

On paper, yes... but both teams know this is a rivalry game. It'll be a new rivalry, but they always played their best against Miami and beat them Rose-less 4 times. (5 times if you want to include that game where Rose shot like 1-20 and was actually benched late in the 4th quarter).

This is our last difficult game for awhile. We play Minnesota, Orlando, Milwaukee, Philly, Boston, Detroit and then we draw Toronto, that is 2 weeks from today. Butler should be close to coming back by then unless he heals slowly.

After that we draw Indiana before shipping out on our 7 game road trip.

Could it really be that we go into the circus trip with potentially only one loss?

Possible. I certainly expect to beat all those bad teams, but many of those are on back to backs.

Now I believe the Cavs will win it this year like most....but with that being said....

Come on. The Bulls are deeper, better defensively and are at home. I actually expect the Bulls to win tomorrow night.

The Bulls will be confident from showing Melo what he's missing out on, maybe Thibs tries Taj on Lebron possibly if he starts to abuse Mike D. As long as we're not getting blown out it should be an exciting game

Awe, crap, going to a Halloween party/beer release that night at a local brewery. Interesting Tap takeover/beer release, North Carolina's first 15% ABV beer produced commercially. Imperial Stout Sour. However, this means I will miss the game.

There are a ton that don't have one. Or there is one TV and a basketball game is not going to get priority.

Wow...the more you know. :)

Mental note to never go to a brewery again.

Well of note in the Chicago area, most of them have multiple TVs. Two Brothers does. I figure the more out of a metro area you are, the harder it is. I know one I went to in Wisconsin does not have any TV's (New Glarus).

Can't wait, I'll be at this game. First prime time game I've ever been to.

My girlfriend attempted to get me tickets...$150/pop for standing room only. She said no thanks.

Lebron lost a lot of weight. He'll be quicker, but he also won't be a bull in a china shop in the post like the last couple of years.
