I don't know if the bulls are overrated per say in just don't know how long it will take them to gel.
D-Rose can't hit a shot against lesser talent at FIBA and is turning the ball over as frequently as JV. What exactly is he going to do against average to good NBA defences? Not to mention the question marks about his health, I don't know what to make of that sitch. For bball quality I hope he's back to MvP form, but as a raps fan I hope he stays healthy but shits the bed mightily.
Pau, as mentioned previously is about as injury prone as they get and with the way Thibs plays his guys, does anyone think he has a chance of playing more than 60 games? If I'm Thibs I start Taj and bring Pau in off the bench, or at the very least make Pau the first sub if he starts.
Mirotic and McBuckets could be good, I don't know. Never seen them play an NBA game so they're no upgrade to anything until I see them play.
And if u look at (what most people would assume to be) their starting line up:
Rose - Hasn't played in 2 years
Butler - great defender, can't shoot
McBuckets? - Rookie, maybe good spacer/scorer but how many opportunities will he really get
Pau - injury prone, seems like a good fit
Noah - looks like a dirty caveman, but everyone knows what he's about.
Those are some major question marks in the starting line up. But having Thibs as the coach and some good depth I guess should make them EC champs but I don't see it being set in stone like some media say.
The East is wide open this year, tons of change, so it's a great year to see if continuity means anything. Can't wait for the season to start.
