nate has been pretty good

Because you said the Knicks weren't contenders. That just isn't true. They might not be favored to get past the Heat, but they are absolutely capable of it.

 

No.

Time between Jordan's 1st retirement and his comeback game against the Pacers:

1 year, 5 months, 13 days

 

Time between Rose's torn ACL injury and his comeback game in Brazil against the Wizards:

1 year, 5 months, 14 days

The Bulls are the first team in NBA history without a 4-game winning or losing streak.

Is it a given Rose is back for the preseason game in Brazil?

I'd hope so considering he's been cleared to play for two months now.

I guess it all depends what God thinks....

Will the Heat still have LeBron by then? No reason to risk it until he's gone.

does one have to dunk off his left foot in Brazil?

No, he'll be in the Southern Hemisphere.

Atlanta getting blown out at home by Toronto tonight.

I keep going back and forth on this...knowing that the Bulls are of course not going to win the east regardless, who should I be rooting for the Bulls to play? I don't think we beat the Pacers, but if we did somehow do so, I like our odds against the Knicks better than against the Heat. I think we can beat the Nets, but theres no chance of beating the Heat.

 

I guess at the end of the day, I'd rather play the Nets because whatever it would be fun to possibly win a playoff series.

I want to play the Heat. Just to take a shot at the best (knowing that they wouldn't win but I think there would still be plenty of intensity for that series.)

This, also knowing it's possible Boozer/Noah break Wade's or Lebron's face

I'd like to play the Heat also...in the Eastern Conference Finals.

You guys just want the 5 seed to avoid getting embarrassed by the Celtics in round 2

We were in Park City, Utah, up in a hotel. Room service stopped at like nine o'clock. He got hungry and we really couldn't find any other place to eat. So we said eh, the only thing I can find is a pizza place. So we says all right, order pizza.

 

We had been there for a while. Everybody knew what hotel. Park City was not many hotels back then. So everyone kind of knew where we were staying.

 

So we order pizza.

 

Five guys came to deliver this pizza.

 

I take the pizza and I tell them: "I've got a bad feeling about this. ... I've just got a bad feeling about this."

 

Out of everybody in the room, [MJ] was the only one who ate. Nobody else had it.

 

And then 2 o'clock in the morning I get a call to my room. Come to the room. He's curled up in the fetal position. We're looking at him, finding the team physician at that time.

 

Immediately I told him it's food poisoning.

 

Not the flu.

That's the most memorable MJ game for me.

He's a pud. Easily the worst bball writer @ ESPN. Did you catch that whining article about the Bulls being "too physical" when they beat the Miami Heat a few weeks ago?

wait, so he was probably intentionally poisoned? if so, that makes the sick game even more iconic. they poisoned him and he still won!

Illness game is overrated. I thought the Portland game in the Finals where Jordan hit like 6 threes in the 1st half and couldn't believe it himself was the most memorable of the championship series-es. He also had 11 assists that game and 35 points in the 1st half is still a Finals record. 63 vs. the Celtics was pretty memorable because I was watching as a kid about 5 miles from the Chicago Stadium and that was my last summer before moving to Indiana.

Bulls get the Nets in the first round.
