Game Thread: Bulls vs Cavs Game Day Thread: 8pm TNT

[purguy12]

Well its opening night so why not start the thread the day before. Im a Big Bulls fan and Im excited about this year. This offense is going to be scary with our new Coach. We drafted one of the better prospects in the draft with Portis. Im really fired up. You are going to see a more free flowing offense and a lot of 3's.

Prediction: Bulls 104 Cavs 99

lets Go Bulls

Offense should be better, but I hope the defense is still stout. Thibs could coach good defense. And defense is going to win titles.

Not saying I liked Thibs' rotations at all, but we will see. Our front line looks awesome with Bobby Portis looking like a stud.

Who's going to be trade bait? Taj?

trade bait Taj or Noah. Who knows. 1 Thing I do know if we need to land the other scorer we have bait.

Hell do we even need another scorer? Rose and Butler are gonna get buckets. I just hope Noah finds his touch again or whatever you call it.. He looked like garbage on offense last year in the playoffs. Guy was breaking backboards on his shot.

should be an interesting season for you guys. and yes, beat the LeBrons tonight...

We might not. I was just stating if we do we have trade bait and good trade bait. I think Noah going to the bench and playing with Taj and Portis in the back court will be a positive move. I do think we will see Noah late in games if we need D because Gasol is so so on D.

Bogut and Barnes for Noah and Portis?

I think Portis will be in the top 5 voting for ROY. Loved his game when he was at Arky. Huge steal for the Bulls.

I have a feeling the bulls are going to lose...

 

[podsox]

bulls are 2.5 pt favorites. I'm a little surprised

They are playing at home and i think Irving isn't playing

They could trade Taj with Portis waiting in the wings.

But, I think Noah will be the guy to go.

Last year of his deal. He is being a real Team first guy with accepting a bench role.

But, they will likely get outbid for his services this Summer when folks are throwing stupid money around.

Cavs 105

Bulls 99

No Kyrie or Shump.

Mo will fill in nicely.

Kid is animal. I didnt know how good his deep shot was. I thought he was another Gibson coming out of college.

 

[purguy12]

WOW Kyrie is still not healthy. I dont know who is made out of glass more Rose or Kyrie? lol

I agree with you. Its his last year od his deal so he has good value. The only problem is he is very well liked in the locker room. He defends his boys. Fan base would go a little crazy if we traded him.

some experts are saying Kyrie is out until January...

Wow really didnt know that. To be honest I havent paid attention to preseason this year except for Bulls. Now that the season is starting I am ready for the NBA Season.
