Damn, I thought that was easy to understand. Anyway, Bulls are not a Playoffs team this season and maybe could be the ugliest team to watch, mark my words.

I think if Detroit can keep away from the injury bug (big if), then they should win about 50 games next year.

I predict the top five teams listed will win 50 plus games.

Yeah I didn't get the hype around the Bulls, Knicks, or Magic. After saying that the Pistons are not looking how I thought they would atmIn SVG We Trust wrote:Maybe some guys will start to listen to people who really know about bb![]()

You predicted the Pacers could be anywhere from 2nd to 7th seed - gave yourself a lot of room to move when a lot of people were predicting a top 4 finish for the Pacers
They're 6th seed right now - so people who pointed out the potential problems with the changes they made have been vindicated thus far as they've struggled to meet those top 4 expectations due to those changes
Bulls are 1 game behind them in the standings FWIW and it's fair to say those that had doubts about the Rondo - Wade - Butler line up have also been vindicated

For the most part the East is ho-hum: a bunch of middle of the road teams that could go either way.
Having a bunch of guys motivated to prove something could make a big difference...
Things that make you go mmmmm

Apparently not lol
Ain't no one blaming Wade - he's the hometown kid returning
Ain't no one blaming Butler - he's their best player now and for the future
Rondo? He's either back to being a hero or he dies the villain
Apparently he chose the latter

Might die as a villain for Chicago, but his story hasn't been fully written just yet.
Man can't believe I wanted to pair him with Dre they year he was traded to Dallas.

His story isn't over but the further away from that Boston team he gets the more the narrative is "couldn't do **** without KG, PP & Ray Ray"
Fairly or not he's either gonna fade to black as the villain or change his ways big time.
Dallas, Sacramento & Chicago all tired of him pretty quickly...he likely gets another go round to make a difference
