I have a general rule of thumb with TV NBA analysis - if Jaylen Rose says something, more likely than not the opposite is true. So the fact that he likes the Wizards over the C's is good news for us!  ;)

Seriously, this dude is so bad, though. I don't understand how he highlights the ESPN stuff. All he does is ride the hot team at the moment.

Idk if I could confidently pick us to win a 7 game series against Washington if both teams are healthy. I think they're a much better team than posters here give them credit for.
I agree that the Wizards are underrated and they're also a lousy matchup for the Celtics but I still think the C's are better at full strength. When this C's team defends like they're capable of they have another gear that I don't think Washington has.

Celtics have played very well, can't take that from them. Especially Bradley. Promising signs, namely rebounding and turnovers, against a scrappy team.

But this has to be one of the worst performances I've seen from a Celtics opponent in a while. Chicago look like a JV squad and Butler wants nothing to do with the basketball.

Nice play.  Playing loose and confident.  Need to keep the D solid -- let's practice not letting a team back in it.

What a demoralizing time to be a Bulls fan.  Participation on BlogABull is way, way down from even last year.  Everyone's given up on the team and those that are still there are understandably negative about everything about the Bulls, from the players to Hoiberg to GarPax.

Eh, they're playing great right now and are on a roll, but we've literally never had a healthy backcourt playing them, with two to three of our games missing at least two of our rotation players.

I think we're a better team than them when fully healthy. But tha'ts the problem - they've been extremely healthy all season, and we haven't at all, yet we're still essentially tied in the standings.

If we have HCA, I'm confident that we win. There's a reason we swept them with the same basic roster/lineup last year. Brooks has helped them, but not by that much. And sooner or later they're going to start coming back down to Earth, both due to a natural regression and the fact that they simply over-rely on their starters to win games for them.

Seems like our bigs have just stopped trying today.

This effort by the Bulls is absolutely pathetic. Wouldn't surprise me to see a Hoiberg firing after this, even though it's more of the management and owner's fault than Hoiberg. They set him up to fail with one of the most ill-fitting rosters I can ever remember.

Wade has those old-man bags under his eyes.

Having a lazy eye ain't helping either

Lol.  Aging gracefully.

married to Gabrielle Union, dude is still winning.

What a pass by Jae.  Brutal display by the Bulls.  Pedal to the metal.

Oof. Bradley looking to embarrass the Bulls now.

I love it. The game's not over until it's over.
