Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
I don't see either as a match up problem for us.
I lean towards prefering the Bulls though - no Turkoglu.

The Bulls... Both will be equally as quick, but with the Bulls you get less trolls...

Bulls. They are the easier match-up IMO.

Not that it matters, but I prefer Chicago just so there are less trolls on here.

Raptors so Bosh knows a championship will never go through Toronto and takes one more team out the running...lol.

Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
Oh and the other reason for picking Chicago is ... If we do happen to beat Toronto in the first round, I doubt that Bosh will come to Cleveland during the summer.

Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
Rose would give us more trouble than Bosh, and I want to smash Turkeyglue, so for those reasons I say Toronto.

Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
I say Toronto cause I live here. And I think the Cavs struggle more against the Bulls than they do Toronto. Probably because of defence. Sure Cavs will have trouble with Rose but Bargnani and Bosh will also give Toronto trouble but with Varejao and Jamison they should be able to contain Bargs. Plus Jamison would make Bargs work on the defensive end.

Imo healthy Bulls will cause you more trouble but If most of you guys trying to avoid Raptors and trolling
in first round you should consider playing your starters today against Toronto.

As long as the Bobcats don't drop to the 8th seed, then I'm good.

Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
As Sam Smith said, the Cavs would likely sweep the Raptors whereas with the Bulls they might make the series at least entertaining in 5 or 6 games.
It doesn't matter though, Cavs wont have problems until the 2nd round regardless if it ends up being the Bobcats, Bucks, Bulls, or Raptors.

Bulls: lack of talent, terrible coach, no depth.
Raptors: soft, soft, soft.
Forecast: sweep.
I'll be disappointed if we a lose game til we see Magic actually.

Re: Bulls or Raptors in first round?
Raptor an here. I need to ask, when will Shaq be back?
If he is back for the 1st game (and starting with 25 mins), I think Toronto has the chance of making stretching the series to 6, maybe even 7.
Game 1: 103-99 (OT) Raps
Game 2: 111-105 Cavs
Game 3: 106-101 (OT) Raps
Game 4: 111-110 Raps
Game 5: 109-98 Cavs
Game 6: 96-94 Cavs
Game 7: 117-113 (OT) ???

Good point. It would be sweet revenge to watch Lebron light up CHI like Jordan used to light us up back in the early 90's.
