And just like that, the Bulls made up 1 game on the Nets with their come from behind win. Could the nets fall all the way to 6 in the final few games?
Great game by Williams, at least statistically. Loads of points on only 16fga.
I'd be satisfied seeing the hawks, nets, or Boston in the first round. None of those teams scare me in a 7 game series... That is, if we have at least 2 legit big men in working condition.

Those guys need to get their act together - I don't think the Bulls want to face Indiana or NY in the 1st round. A matchup vs the Hawks or Nets would be much preferred, I would think.Currently 2.5 games separate seeds 4-6 (Nets/Hawks/Bulls), so there's potentially a bit of flip-flopping around those seeds, particularly Atlanta and Chicago.
Without Rose, the Bulls still sport one of the premier frontlines(Noah/Boozer/Deng).
Excatly why I am rooting hard for the Bulls to pop up to that 4 spot down the stretch or even go on a losing streak to drop into the 8th spot. Miami would probably still win, but would be hurting after the fact for sure, which would be pretty enjoyable all around.
Agreed, Hawks or Nets in the 1st round would be great, but Boston doesn't scare me against this Knicks squad. Can't wait...
