In the East the Bulls just aren't clicking. The talent is there, the potential is there to win it all, but something is missing and the team just isn't clicking. On the other hand ATL and CLE are clicking big time, everything is working smooth in these teams. WSH is a possitive surprise for me, they play much better than they did the last part of the regular season. I don't think anyone expected them to manhandle the Raptors the way they are doing it. It will be very difficult for them vs. ATL, but you can tell these guys are stepping up and frankly I wouldn't expect anything less from a talented group led by The Truth. I eventually expect ATL to get to the finals (vs. CLE), where they can struggle a bit because of the recent loss of an important rotation player. But WSH will put up a good fight.

In the West I think SAS would be very confident entering a series against the GSW. They took them down in the regular season, they are the champions, what should they be afraid of? SAS would be the favourite of such a series, easily. Still, I think every one of the top 5 teams can win the West. GSW, MEM, SAS, HOU, LAC - it's a toss up. GSW should defeat MEM, but just how banged up will they be after that series? Will their crazy jumpers be falling all the time after 6-7 games with the Grindmasters? GSW will be hurt after that series. To tell the truth, I really like the Clippers this season, don't know if this team can get any better, but my brain tells me to never bet against the Spurs. This match up is better than anything we are gonna get in the East this year. Two hottest teams entering the Playoffs (both won 10 out of their last 11 games). Awesome pair and nobody can predict who is gonna win.
Houston is a great team, but they still haven't reached their full potential, though in their last game was pretty darn close to what they can be.
I feel injuries may play a huge role in the West this year, they sure are slowing Memphis down and took Portland out of the equation. SAS are also struggling because of injuries. Wonder who is gonna be next...

If I was to pick now, I'd love to see the LAC or HOU winning, but my brain tells me to go with SAS defeating CLE in the end. Their injuries make me a bit worried, but I hope they can overcome it.


Thibodeau simpley doesn't know how to coach offense. You can clearly see that the players aren't trained well when it comes to offense.

Most of the time you see them standing still and no movement at all. 

It is only when Noah has the ball you see nicce cutting from the players and when Rose is on the floor that disappear. 

Except for the fact they're a much better team when Rose is playing than when he is on the bench.



let me tell you how it will work:

Chicago Bulls 4:0 Milwaukee Bucks
Chicago Bulls 4:2 Cleveland Cavaliers
Chicago Bulls 4:1 Atlanta Hawks
Chicago Bulls 4:2 if Warriors, Grizzlies, Spurs, 4:1 else teams

 

 

 

editted: Rose wins FInal MVP

Wouldn't mind if the Bulls win it all but I'm thinking if that happens Jimmy Butler will be the MVP he really is the best player on their team.

If you take regular season performance into consideration, yes, Jimmy or Paul are definitely better.

But it's final MVP award.

Based on those 3 games, I would say Derrick is the best. Also if you look at their stats for those 3 games, Derrick has the most nice one and his efficiency rate is the highest.

I'm not talking about Rose. I'm talking about Tom's offense. It is bad.

He overachieves in the regular season but when the playoffs comes and other teams start to defend he fails. 

I remeber Deng qoute on 2011: "We played good defense. In offense, we had Derrick Rose"

I think he needs a very good offensive assistance.

Yea. Tom's offense is truly bad. Many times, even Rose is standing still doing nothin when ball is not in his hand.

And I think Tom has the most responsibility for Rose's injury. If he has better offense stratergies, Rose wouldnt be overused like he was and is now.

I say he should tell Rose and Butler to give the ball to Gasol every turn when possible. The offensive should run through Gasol every time.

It will be the easist and fastest way to improve the offensive at the point.



One thing I can tell for sure is that: calvs will definitely put their focus on Rose and Butler when they meet since these two played too well in Bucks games. A shift of offensive focus to Gasol will much help.



Spurs looking good I'm thinking they will dispatch the Clippers in five.

Ah gotcha. That I can't really argue with. Tom's a defensive genius, but he is challenged offensively.
