Im rooting for the knicks to beat Atlanta and the bulls to win and get the 5th seed. Bulls beat the Nyets in the first rd and somehow knock off Miami. Knicks take care of boston and indy and square off against the bulls in the ECF
Such a delicate knick fan you are. You scared like girly man about decrepid KG and his raggety man pierce?

strange but, I'd feel more confident against Miami that I do against the bulls. We match up well against Miami but, Chicago has that "play hard as hell" gene which, my team can't seem to match.
This is not irrelevant. Keeping Chicago in Miami's bracket is key. If we can beat Boston, then take on Ind/ATL maybe there's a chance Chicago can knock off Miami in round 2. Maybe Rose comes back. Who knows. I don't want to see Chicago until ECF if they make it past round 1. Boston scares me for mental reasons, but realistically we should get past them.
@gunsnewing...i thought i was the ONLY person looking at those standings too. im hoping atl loses to toronto, chi wins their games and we can beat atl on wed...bulls own the atl vs bulls tiebreaker

Exactly chicago gives miami fits. They were no match for them in the past. Lebron would just shut rose down and no one else would step up but now the bulls have weapons unlike indy. They have nate boozer belinelli and deng playing his best ball. Would be a heck of a series
Then again Bulls will prob tank the game cos they much rather play the knicks than Miami rd 2
they dont seem to be tanking tho...their starters played last night and i assume theyll go HARD on wed vs wash

Couldn't agree more with the thread topic, but disagree about them tanking simply because one would think the Bulls would rather play BK than Indy in round 1, mainly because of Hibbert and West compared to BLopez, Evans, Humphries.
Noah and Gibson being banged up cannot be overlooked or these individual matchups on the frontline in round 1. As for the perimeter, I'm sure Thibs can get a good handle on slowing down DWill and Joe "overpayed" Johnson. I see Chicago playing hard these last 2 in an attempt to get to the 5 spot.
Also - Chicago vs. Indy (1-3) Chicago vs. BK (3-1)
I fear no team.
Why?
I don't care. To nalod its entertainment. Its been a great season and would like more, but if its not meant to be, then why get upset?
Who cares if Denver is better or not. I don't care how other teams do.
Knicks take care of its business on the court. If not, they go home.
Im already home.
I want to sit down and watch a good game.
I want to sweep Boston. Its too bad we can't get BKN earlier. I'll root for them to advance to the ECF's!!!
IM sure some of you want them gone in fear.
They make it that far they should be, but you know that what makes for great basketball, games with importance.
I'd rather get beat by BKN than Miami!
Im the guy that would like to see Yankees and Mets in a world series! Jets and Giants in the superbowl! KNicks-Nets in ECF's!
First things first, lets get thru Boston and stay healthy!
Good thing we're missing the Bucks- at least in the first round....look for their pesky guards to take it to the defending champs-
if this happens and the Knicks lose to the Bulls - well that would just be more of the same
The Bucks are TERRIBLE. Miami is going to sweep them and none of the games are going to be close.
I aint gonna lie seeing the nyets get knocked out in the first rd by the bulls in four would be very pleasing

Yankees mets and giants jets would be great to see but I could never route for the Nyets nor do i fear them anymore than i fear the bucks and atlanta
so the Big Three are down in Miami sipping MaiTai's and discussing...
LeQ: so how are we going to shut down...ummmm...Nate?
DWade: you serious?
Bosh: who's Nate?
