There's only 1 way we can shut them up.

Win a damn series against them and start gaining some respect.

It's all about WINS. Winning = Respect.

Otherwise, same old story.

The Raps should just lose against the Knicks and hopefully the Bulls win. Then the Raps can laugh at Brooklyn and Miami.

Every team wants us. Bulls, Wizards and Bobcats fans want us too. This team gets no **** respect.

I'd rather it come back to bite them in the ass and we **** up the Nets in the playoffs.

I voted to rest key starters against NY.

Lowry, Amir and DeMar should all sit. Even beyond getting favourable matchups, I want them all rested going into the playoffs and we know Casey won't be able to resist playing them big minutes if the game is close.

Well you can't really blame miami, we've never beaten them. That would be a clean sweep.But **** that retirement home team BKN.

Seriously. For a team with a +.500 road record, and a great record against the West, you'd think that would scare some teams. I for one am glad the Raps are being pegged as the underdog even though they are a division champion. Will be great when we shut one of those teams up!

I'd rather maximize our chances to get as deep in the playoffs as possible.. Playing the red hot Nets in round 1 and the Heat in round 2 really isn't something you should ask for

Great so they drop to 6th and we throw the last game and take Washington first and Indiana second.

If we throw it what is the outcome? If Chicago intentionally loses we would still be 3rd right?

I believe the Nets would try something like that.. but i don't think the Heat care.. theyd beat anyone of bkn/chi/tor in probably 5.. 6 at the most

If Chicago loses we end up 3rd regardless of the outcome of our last game, yes.
