I agree.
The Bulls are a very good team, and this is a very good win for us: a marquee win against a team we might meet in the playoffs.
But there is no way they're some elite team where it ends up being a shock that we beat them. I've been reading a few posts on the Bulls board where their fans are having this kind of mentality and looking down at the Hawks. The Bulls are as much of a second tier team as we are.
Uh huh, you would think they had won 5 championships since Jordan left. That team currently is a good playoff team but anybody that would be surprised if the Hawks beat them in a playoff series is being both dumb and naive.
