I'm more concerned about the #3 seed in the East looking like a #12 seed in the East lately

So I guess we're facing the Brooklyn Nets. Am I correct?

Great coach but all those injuries the Bulls have had over the last few years are really on him. Don't know how a guy can be such a basketball genius and have zero idea how to manage minutes.



100 percent agree. He runs his guys into the ground. And not just in games, in practices as well.

Did someone piss in your cheerios? How are you writing the raptors off before the playoffs have even started?

So excited for Saturday, can't wait to see how loud the ACC will be. So are we going to chant "Lets go Raptors...Brooklyn sucks" on Saturday?

Writing off? No, it's still just 7 games of basketball, anything can happen.

It's just I (like most people who follow the NBA, I suspect) think the Nets will win. Even though a few of their players are shells of what they used to be, they have far more experience in high intensity games and will get the bulk of the calls in such situations.

If everyone is healthy on our team we are just too athletic for them. Raps in 5. We lose one game in the first game @ BKN because of the atmosphere and ref pref. treatment.

You also have to account the fact that the Raptors committed the highest PF's (Personal Fouls) in the league this season. The odds are really against us :(
