i'm not going to debate whether jrue holliday can shut down derrick rose. last time they played (the 6ers won) rose had 27/9 albeit he didn't shoot well from the field. bulls also didn't have noah.

i like the way philly is playing too. they are a solid group of young players and super athletic.

LOL i just think this thread is 2 months premature. bulls with thibodeau are playing really great D. deng is having his best year. rose is on another level (did you catch the TNT game last week v. heat, dude was unstoppable). the noah/boozer pairing may be the toughest frontcourt in the east.

anubis, the flip side of your argument is --- if amare or melo get in foul trouble, the knicks are toast.

Your post is very fair. I think Chicago and New York would be looking at a game 7 if they met in the first round.

Chicago's advantages are that they're a much better defensive team, and have the potential MVP.

New York's advantages are that they're a much better offensive team, and have more star power.

This would be interesting.

At this juncture I would have say Chicago in the finals. I got a Lakers-Bulls karma thing with the Zen Master.

I don't see the knicks but thats because they are not rolling (yet). Sure the win was nice and all this talk is cool but Miami has some pieces coming to them and we have a whole lot of chemistry to build.

Boston is the obvious choice but there is somthing brewing in ChiTown that if they stay healthy can be tough. The combo of Booze and Naoh is speacial. Power and speed. DRose is getting silly good.

What I want and what I think are two different things.
