been saying the same thing myself. they'll be an offensive powerhouse for sure but their defense seems very questionable. Also Cavs fans seem to forget that 2 of their big 3 and the head coach have never played an NBA playoff game in their life, so to think they'll win it all in one go seems pretty farfetched. they'll be a dynasty for sure & i can see them winning a ring or two down the line, but that shit aint happening their first year. Even Miami went 9-8 at first.
Im probably fan-biased but if Rose stays out of injury trouble then you gotta take the Bulls in the east. hell, they were 3rd seed last year w/o Rose and now they have their most stacked roster since Thibs came on board. You gotta assume Miami & Indy go down a couple pegs & the Cavs and Wizards are still younger teams so regardless of how the regular-season goes, the Bulls seem to be the most prepared for playoff basketball in terms of overall depth, versatility, experience, & coaching.
