pretty much, Clev also won 60+ games and had home court throughout the playoffs. This Chi team, as it stands right now reminds me of that Clev team very much, except Lebron never had a All Star caliber player with him (in which I mean Boozer). I don't know if his injuries are really bothering him, not that it's a valid excuse cause he is out there playing over 30 minutes a game, but this is why I called him overrated at the beginning of the season. He's barely averaging 10 points a game, when they need double that from him to be able to win it this year. Rose does way too much and when he struggles, the team struggles to win.
That 72-10 Bulls team was the greatest team I've ever seen play the game of basketball.
COY, ROY, MVP.... none of that means crap to me.
They gonna bring home the ring baby!
I agree they've done quite well for themselves.
No, I'm with ya. I think like most folks they're a year away from winning it all. They need to add a solid SG and stay healthy for a whole year.
What I think is happening right now with Chicago is they might be running out of gas a bit. They've been beat up all year long Noah missed 35 games and Boozer another 20-25 games. Did they have to use so much energy to get the best record that Rose, Deng, etc are starting to get tired?
Oh I've felt all year long the teams that should be the faves to win it all are the Lakers, Celtics, and if the Heat did things right have the three best shots. They have the "most" superstars per team and that can and will win you a ring or two.
Anything can happen and who knows maybe Chicago gets on awesome roll.
