crying? This team is in the middle of a long stretch of inferior opponents that we are beating every game in the same fashion, spurts of terrific play and periods of mediocre play. The Bulls are stuck in the 3/4 spot in the East with only an outside shot of moving up, and no shot of falling down. There is literally nothing else to discuss with the Bulls right now. The only mildly interesting story on a game to game basis is talking about how the Bulls are playing a bit listless lately, despite the winning. There are raised expectations for this team and that means there will be criticism despite winning because the next level up for the Bulls is championship contender. People want to discuss what is holding the Bulls back from getting to that point. It might be a little nitpicky in the face of the Bulls winning almost every night, but it's better than talking about how awesome Rose and Boozer are again and again after every game That's the Cubs fan in you talking. Relax.
