Why does everyone think that hawks/bulls/nets are better?

than the sixers? I have read in other forums how other teams would much rather face us than the hawks bulls or nets. Why is this? Havent we proven that we are better than all those teams?

I can't answer for other people but I don't believe those teams are better than the Sixers.

We are better than all three of those teams.

The only argument that you can make for the Nets/Bulls is that they have been in the playoffs for the last several years.

Although the Hawks have a lot of talent, we're still a better team now and in the playoffs.

none of those teams are beter than us

The Bulls definitely have far more talent than the Sixers and are getting it together every single game that they play since the major trade. Gooden, Noah, Nocioni, and Deng are a more formidable frontline than Dalembert, Evans, Thad, and Jason Smith.

And yet the Bulls are an absolute mess in which the coach and players do not get along and the GM has to suspend it's players for stepping out of line. The Bulls *might* get the 8th seed but they certainly aren't going to make up 4 and 1/2 games on us over the next month.

Nobody think those teams are better than the Sixers right now. If you want an objective stance, try some of the ESPN power rankings.

You sure make some weird, introspective threads, carlos.
