The heat? Sorry but no. Chicago has beat them in every matchup this season. Miami has a shit coach, no bench, and no mental toughness to close out games.

Well I'll take it Chicago is your hometown team. So let's hope for a Mavs vs Bulls matchup so both of our hometown teams can get there even though neither is realistic.

I'm not sure why you say it's unrealistic for Chicago to get to the finals. They have the best record in the NBA with series wins against some of the elites. They are the best rebounding team in the NBA and play excellent team ball. Their bench is excellent and their coaching is top notch as well.

And yes, I've been a Bulls fan for over 20 years. This team just continues to mature as the season goes on.

Okay I'll admit I don't watch much NBA outside of Dallas Mavs games. Watched all 82 and will be at game one of the playoffs in person. Woohoo!

I did look over the roster of the Bulls and they look like a solid team. Looks like the Detroit team that won the title. A lot of solid guys. I'm not sure where Boozer is at this point in his career and lack of playoff success is definitely a concern. In the playoffs depth isn't as important and it usually comes down to the stars of the teams. I'd still take a Boston and even the Heat over the Bulls right now.
