I've come around on Noah. Can't hate on him anymore.

He's too tough, plays too hard and rises to the occasion. Mr. Tenacity. Nate and Butler are great to pull for too.



Agreed.


I've always liked the Bulls (a byproduct of being young and impressionable during the Jordan years--Dennis Rodman is one of my all-time favorite players),so it's been pretty easy to root for them.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

These two facts in conjunction:
(1) They exist in the Eastern Conference
(2) They are not named the Boston Celtics

i'm not rooting for the Bulls to win it all, but i am rooting for the Bulls in this series. The storyline is way too good.

The Bulls are relying on injured, flawed or previously overlooked players while missing their best player to an ACL (sound familiar yet?). Meanwhile, the Heat are heavily favored, have home court advantage, have all the superstars and their superstar calls, and are fully healthy. But the series is still close. Bulls aren't doing it through talent but only through sheer will and hard work. Gotta love the underdog.

Agree....alot easier rooting for Bulls than   the cHeat  or NY Knicks.

Does anyone think that the NBA will allow the Bulls to beat the HEAT ????

NExt game the Bulls will NEVER see the foul line and James will have no fouls and like 75 points.  ;D

 I've found it refreshingly easy to root against the Bulls for 20+ years.

  ...although I don't mind players pushing LeBron around...

I like to see hustle, effort, teamwork when I watch basketball.  That is one reason I have always loved the Celtics.  This current bulls team is showing a lot of those same characteristics.  Since the C's went down, I am def. rooting for them to come out of the east.  Can't stand NYK, Miami at all...and Indiana is just blah to me.

I think with Deng and Hinrich they win game 3 and go into the next one with a good chance to take control. Without them its kind of like trying to stay alive until they come back and they can't hang on forever.
