Not sure why the Bulls can't win? Chicago has home court, is the better rebounding team, but they don't have Lebron or Wade. I think casual fans just assume the Heat will march towards the title, but I'm not sold on them. After Wade and Lebron, they really drop off with regards to production and this includes Bosh who will have his hands full with Noah.
Rose will have to step up his game and Boozer, Noah, and Deng will have to play great, but I like the Bulls chances with regards to value against this inflated line.
I'm guessing Boozer will guard Bosh. Noah will have an advantage over Joel Anthony or Ilguaksas, whoever they decide to throw at him.
I think the most compelling part of this series will be how Miami chooses to guard Rose. Will they put chalmers on him? I expect Bibbys minutes to go down as he doesnt have a prayer of staying in front on Rose. I personally think Wade is their best perimiter defender. Will they let him attack and just worry about the other four on the court? The first quarter of game one should help us answer alot of questions as to how Miami plans to deal with this.
And let's not forget that the bulls went 3-0 against the heat in the regular season...
:0corn
no chance bibby guards rose....he's a starter so he'll be out the most of the time when bogans is out there and will guard him
wade and lebron will switch off on rose with the other guarding deng (when wade is on deng look for deng to post him up)
as for the bulls.....rose will be on bibby but freelance, bogans will be on wade, deng will be on lebron....up front it depends on what thibs wants to do....noah on anthony allowing noah to freelance or noah on their best frontcourt player bosh with boozer (a bad defender) on mia worst off player anthony.
love the line screaming upwards and love the bulls at home laying 1 (likely getting 6ish on the road)......they have the defensive players to matchup with mia and will need to limit turnovers (a problem vs ind) and dominate on the boards with noah, booz, gibson, asik, thomas.
He has to put Boozer on Anthony...Haslim will be back as well for Miami but how effective will he be?
It doesn't take much to exploit Boozer,the guy plays no D.Not a huge Bosh fan but think he would put in 30 plus vs Boozer.not really, it's a perfect strategy......put boozer on bosh and let mia try and exploit that, means less shots for lebron and wade......but even better is it allows noah to roam and clog the lane when lebron/wade try to penetrate
