People are forgetting the importance of coaching. Look on paper we look great but again we have Spo as a coach. Pat went on the record to say there was no excuse to us not making the playoff last year, even with injuries playing in the East we should have made the playoff...

Hmm, true, but Dunleavy I guess is what people are looking at. He is a better shooter than any of our players right now.

Old tho... He belongs on the bench. Maybe they start Mirotic later on at SF, who can shoot 3's too, who knows

That Bulls team is talented, but Butler is the only real defensive anchor and even with Thibs gone he still has his work cut out for him.

Noah tho, his lack of a consistent jumpshot is what makes that Bulls team a bit... "not up to the current times". Even Memphis who still will play big ball has two front court players that can atleast shoot.

Bulls could have won 60 games if they didnt fool around last season and have drama with their coach. Their starting unit stayed the same and it was more proven, so I can see why they would be higher up. We have to prove ourselves.

Return to Miami Heat
