No doubt about it......the Bulls will be in the championship game

Three of their top six players have been injured the last three weeks. Most teams would crumble, but Thibs has made this team stronger......Niko is legitimately closing in on rookie of the year and is creating an impossible matchup for most teams. Tony Snell has blossomed and is playing great defense and is spacing the floor with great three point sharpshooting. Butler is back next week. Taj is back next week. Rose will be back at the playoffs. This team when healthy and together cannot be beat in the East playoffs. Nobody will stop them from the championship game, and for once Sir Charles and I agree.....the Bulls are the team to beat. They may lose some more games meshing after the injuries, but the TEAM has gotten better through this process. Thibs takes no prisoners, and his defensive philosophy is what wins championships......team play, rebounding, and tough as nail defense.
