A) There was no point at which I said the Bulls were 'destined' to do anything. They had a chance, a really good one, probably the best they've ever had minus maybe the 2012 team that was undone by factors out of their control. B) If the Bulls hadn't gagged away Game 4, I'd have been as high on their chances as anyone on this board. Just because I was too busy actually watching Games 3 and 4 to post on here doesn't mean I wasn't enjoying them (until the end of G4). C) I just dislike the 'moral victory' stuff in general. It was one thing when this team was new on the scene (2011 was fun despite the terrible ending), but they've been relevant for 5 seasons now. 'Oh gee, what fun to be in the final 8 and go down swinging' rings hollow given how many bites at the apple this particular group has already had.
