as a Bulls fan, im more worried about OKC than the HEAT
thats just the truth. im not worried about the heat, there weak against teams that are well balanced and play as a team. OKC dont have any weaknesses at this point, there weakness last season was inexperience, and now they have it.
Re: as a Bulls fan, im more worried about OKC than the HEAT
You're not worried about the defending champs? Miami will whoop on Chicago if they face eachother in the postseason. LeBron will lock down Rose again and Bulls will be lost.

And please ignore what that little fool enoughsaid says, damn kids shouldn't be allowed to post here.
Are you stupid? We have a decisive rebounding/big man advantage over the Heat. We have absolutely no advantages over OKC. Besides Noah over Perkins, but that's a wash considering Ibaka.
I've been afraid of the Thunder far more than the Heat, the past 2 years.
Re: as a Bulls fan, im more worried about OKC than the HEAT
I don't get why Bulls fans are mad at this thread. I think it's a completely valid discussion.
I've been saying for the longest, even if we get past Miami, I'm not too sure about OKC.
I know it's just the regular season, but at least we have a blue print on stopping the Heat. When's the last time we even beat the Thunder in the regular season???

Why yes, I remember what that Miami team did to Rose with their stifling, athletic, swarming team defense. LeBron just took the pub, by being a pretty good man defender, and just contesting Rose's jumper seeing as he had NO WHERE else to go.
And given Rose is like in reality 6 feet tall, and had a 6'8 SUPER GENETIC FREAK athlete contesting his jumper, as he had to play both guard positions, chuck and distribute? He did a pretty damn find job all things considering.
Bron reaped the benefits getting fan claim as if he solo LOCKED DOWN the MVP Derrick Rose. When in reality it was a team defense, and Bron using his physical gifts to bother someone on the perimeter.
Probably the most overrated defensive job on an elite player I've ever heard of ... for people who know basketball, they know the real reason why Rose looked bad that series.
Kobe's defense on Westbrook in the 2010 playoffs was more impressive than Bron on Rose in the 2011 playoffs.
Kobe was on an island locking dude down with his man defense. Westbrook had other elite shot creators who could score and take away layers of defensive help. I wish Rose had that ... until he does, everyone needs to stop acting like Bron locked him down mano y mano.

If he's hucking shots over lebron that's not a good job, he simply just has to get around him and distribute which he struggled to do so. And he's 6'3 so lets not exaggerate like if he's allen iverson. I heard Rose is arguably the fastest player in the league and yet he struggled to blow by LeBron.
