Some Bulls fans want us to crush them I hopes of Forman/Pax being fired. That is the best result for them. They will never win **** with those clowns running the show.

Let's do this thing!

Set the tone of this (hopefully deep) playoff run with a convincing home win! The atmosphere at the garden will be crazy I imagine.

Sweep. :x
Good assessment:

Will be weird seeing Rondo from the other side. Didn't he check Brad Miller into the scorer's table and somehow not get ejected?

Hinrich went into the table. He grabbed Miller by the neck mid-air going for a dunk and got away with a regular foul. :lol:

Jordan was a pretender, a fraud. All who cheered for him were delusional and told what to do by TV advertisements. 'Like Mike', some fool who drafted Kwame Brown, give me a break.

No, Jordan was nothing, nothing. Couldn't beat the Celtics in the playoffs. That is why the Celtics are up here, and the Bulls are down, down, down there. How does that make you feel, Mikey?


Image


Larry Bird, better at everything. Everything that mattered in basketball. Jumping around on a fast break while a beverage company based on the sweat of college football players and a shoe company that paid their 'employees' in Asia four cents a day spend billions on a media campaign to brainwash gullible children who eat glue into thinking Jordan was a neat player, not right. Jordan was nothing, and he knew it.

Jordan would plead to the media handlers, to the PR people, "I know, deep inside, that I am a fraud, I am nothing. I need Larry Bird, only if Larry Bird is associated with me will I have any real success. Larry Bird."

Larry Bird, he felt sorry for the failed baseball player. A 'successful' Michael Jordan movie, nope. Larry Bird had to appear in it to make it important. A 'memorable' Michael Jordan publicity campaign, nope. Larry Bird had to be in for it to be memorable, Ronald McDonald knows that. The 'Dream Team', nope. Nobody would have watched that Barcelona nonsense if Larry Bird had not played. Jordan, Laettner, it was like a failed Washington Wizards team.

Oh, that's right. Jordan wasn't even a Bull when he retired. No Bull, is Jordan.

Jordan, 0 playoff wins against the Celtics.



Jealousy, the Bulls would love to be the Celtics. They plot, they dream, they scam, they wish they were the Celtics. They try to be, they fail, but they do really wish to be the Celtics.

Image



Are the Bulls worried, do they fear a saboteur in their midst?

Image

The Celtics connecting on four wins, more likely than Rondo getting 4 outside shots to fall. Or Wade to get 4 shots to fall. Rondo arrives in Chicago to save the team, with the memory of Wade breaking his elbow a distant, yet painful, thought. Whoops, here comes Wade. What a shock, that didn't work out for the best.



Respect where respect is due respect, there is one Bull all Celtics fear. He scores, he rebounds, he can do it.

Image

He's not there. Well, too bad for the Bulls.


If there is one player on the Bulls that all Celtics fan wish was a Celtic, it's this guy.

Image

How could the Bulls trade these two stars for a short point guard who doesn't pass who plays in the developmental league. That must be a payne for Bulls' fans.



Which side is he really on?

This is the first time in the Stevens era I feel we are the better team. Chicago is no pushover, but I am confident we can close this out in 5.
