    Too early? My predictions: Bulls over Heats in 7 games

    This is going to be hell of a series
    Rose+Boozer+Noah vs Wade+Lebron+BoshA new generation of Playoff is about to begin.

    I hope someone post the game schedule later on...

    This will be the best series of the playoffs I think.

    Looking forward to it

    Two things need to happen for the Bulls to win this series.

    1. Boozer needs to show up.

    2. Rose needs to shoot better.

    Bulls looked real good these last two games and the Heat have looked dam good the whole playoffs.

    Tough call, not sure how you can go against Wade/James but Bulls have Rose and HC.

    Yea hes playing the way he should. If he can keep it up the Bulls will have a great chance at beating the Heat.

    I predicted a Bulls/Heat Eastern finals and a Heat victory and I'm sticking with it. The Heat will win simply because they have two superstars compared to Chicago's one.

    u will be disappointed. the heat will win this pretty easily, 5 most likely, at worst 6 games.

    the heat have to worry about being hungover from the tough series w/ boston in game 1.

    lebron/wade just toyed with the 2nd best defense in the L, which is pretty much the same defense as the bulls (philosophically-wise).

    and drose will continue to be inefficient.

    Deng is a hell of a defensive player. Can He guard James though? I really think the Bulls should've pursued and above average shooting guard at the trade deadline.

    You underestimate the abilities of the Heat to go into cruising mode and the Bulls capitalizing on that by playing hard every minute.

    you seriously think lebron/wade will go into "cruising" mode knowing full well the path to the championship is in their control?

    however i do think the bulls will win game 1 though b/c the heat will come off of a high from the celts series

    Bulls' defense will cause problems for the Heat,who have only two consistent scorers in Wade and James. Bosh is the x-factor for Miami,and Boozer for the Bulls. Korver's shooting will be key as well.
    Chicago in 7.

    the bulls have one consistent scorer, and an inefficient one at that.

    God, I hope the Bulls annihilate Queen James and company. I am concerned because the Heat have really been on a roll. It should be the best playoff series and whoever wins it will win the finals (I can't see the Mavericks, Thunder, or Grizzlies beating whoever wins it).

    I can see the Mavs beating either team.
