The East

 so i know that it has been awhile since my last post and i have a very good reason for this. That reason is that my parents have been gone this whole time and i have been living the great life. on a topic that more people can relate to, lets talk about the eastern conference finals. The Heat which are the biggest rollercoaster team and the bulls are going to face each other in a best of 7 match to determine who will play the winner of the western conference finals. At the beginning of the season, lebron and bosh joined the heat and everyone was sure that the they would face the Lakers in the finals. Well it looks like they have fulfilled their part of the bargain and the Lakers just couldnt pass the Dallas Mavericks with their billionaire owner Cuban. Then as soon as the season started, everyone saw that the big three from the Heat had no chemistry and had a really hard time trying to get some wins in. But as soon as the playoffs came around, we could see that big three dwindled down into just a dynamic duo of Lebron and Dwayne.  Together i believe these two put up about 50 points a game. Then they also have James Jones who is the 3pt shooting champion this year. They also have Bosh. Although he doesnt put up as many points as he did in his Canadian days, he is still very capable of shooting and getting rebounds. Now lets talk about the Bulls. They have great players such as Rose and Boozer. Lets face it though, Derrick is really what makes the Bulls so good. He puts up about 30 points per game in the playoff season and easily deserved the MVP award even at such a young age. Boozer, who for some reason decided to actually play in the last game of the ATL series put up more than 20 points. If Boozer can do this every game i would feel more secure in the Bulls making it to the finals. Aside from those two players the Bulls have a great defense especially with Noah. Noah may not be a great scorer but he can definately defend. Then there is Luol Deng who is a huge surprise to me. He is a good player and would not probably get as much fame if he were on any other team. Since other teams usually double team Rose, his back up guys are Deng and Boozer. Deng is a great player but he is not always consistent. The rest of the bulls team is filled with three point shooters. thats not a bad thing but if they cant get a shot in then they may be in trouble. In the east i think i will say that the Heat are more consistent. If they can stop Derrick Rose then i say they will move onto the finals and then Lebron may finally get his long deserved ring.

  1. Heat over Bulls any day. Lebron is too good, he can basically carry his team... Bulls... eh, not so much.

  2. I haven't watched Da Bulls in soo long. I may tune in for this. Quick cool story... I remember my Dad coming home from a Bulls game Jordan's rookie year. Who is Jordan? He says, "I dunno this guy was crazy, he was sticking his tongue out while he was playing it was weird."

  3. I'd love to see the Bulls win this series, but part of me would also love to see a Mavs/Heat rematch in the finals.

  4. Haha, sorry man, I'm not too much of a fan of Basketball. I'm a hockey fan all the way. I'm so damn pissed that the Red Wings lost out to the Sharks of all teams.

  7. Tabs are a mans best friend, other than that nice article. The bulls work as a team unlike any other team, but Lebron is just too beastly to be stopped. Should be an interesting rest of the playoffs.

    Athasian- I feel your pain for the wings loss... just so dissapointed.

  8. This is the perfect example of why Lebron should just live his life to the fullest. He clearly preforms better when not under pressure!

  12. heat got nothing. bulls are going to destroy them, deng is a much better player than you seem to give him credit for, he shut down lebron in game one. lebron is the most over rated basketball player of all time.
