I am somewhat of a Pacers fan too except when they play the Bulls because I admire their toughness, but i was wondering would you rather face Bulls in the playoffs because of the close series last year, or would u rather face the Heat because you guys have so much size over them? Just wondering

Well, the Heat pwned us 3 times already this season, we don't want to face them.
About the Bulls, we're 1-1 this season, and I think most of us remember that we had a good chance of beating you guys in all first 3 games (of the playoffs). It's also a rivarly match for us which makes it more exciting.
So overall, I'd rather face you guys because I think we have a better chance of beating you (than beating Miami) and because I think the games would be more exciting and more intense.

If a knick fan may interject id have to say that while the bulls are very good the heat are terrifying and have 2 of the best players in the world along with a legit 18-10 big and a good supporting cast. I'd be more afraid of them

I don't understand the question. We're beating everybody.

But in all seriousness, the Bulls give us a better chance to advance or at least get a close series. I would personally prefer the Heat. If we can repeat what we did last year against the Bulls except against the Heat, it'll make us unafraid of anybody.

I think we all, as Pacers fans, can agree we would rather see the Bulls than the Heat.

The Heat have killed us in 2 out of 3 games and in the 3rd they showed why they are so good, as they beat us at the buzzer.

We match up better with the Bulls and showed during last season's playoffs (with a worse team mind you) that we can stay with them for the most part.

I hate to say it but I'm not sure we can beat either team yet in a 7 game series. Maybe Barbosa will be our lucky charm once he gets acclimated here.

Who we meet in the first round is really the only thing on my mind right now.

The postseason experience other playoff teams have still makes us the underdog in most matchups IMO.

I'd rather not have to face either one. Both teams are far superior to us, we just aren't close to them yet.

I don't believe we match up well with the Heat. So, I'd prefer to face the Bulls even though I like the as a team a lot more than the Heat.

We have a decent chance against either. Primarily the Bulls as there's a grudge match there, but also the heat because of our size.

Playoffs are much different from regular season, so I would welcome either.

by managing to lose twice to the Knicks and then beating Philly we really tightened up the race for the 4 spot. I don't know whether I'd rather play Philly or New York.
