My "suprise" East conference champs.

That tread title brought back some memories. I loved the Bulls in the 80's and 90's. Yes, I will admit, I only like the Bulls because of Michael Jordan. He was the best.

I saw my first game at the old Stadium on January 6th, 1970, beat the Lakers 105-100. Bob "ButterBean" Love, Chet the Jet Walker, Jerry Sloan, Tom Boerwinkle, Clem Haskins and Bob Weiss. Here were their salaries:

Tom Boerwinkle $35,000
Shaler Halimon $25,000
Clem Haskins $50,000
Bob Kauffman $36,000
Bob Love $34,000
Ed Manning $23,500
Loy Petersen $22,500
Jerry Sloan $60,000
Al Tucker $30,000
Chet Walker $60,000
Bob Weiss $33,000

Lakers Roster:

Jerry West
Elgin Baylor
Happy Hairston
Mel Counts
Dick Garrett
Rick Roberson
Keith Erickson
Johnny Egan
Wilt Chamberlain
Willie McCarter
Mike Lynn
John Tresvant
Bill Hewitt

Chamberlain never got off the bench to warm up and played a half-court game the entire time. Lakers eventually lost the NBA finals 4-3 to the Knicks.

Keep in mind, I hate basketball. But the power of the Eastern Conference swayed to the Bulls with the signing of Wallace! He will quickly become a fan favorite in the C!

Not trying to sound negative, but did the Bulls really perform that good or did the pathetic performance of Miami just make them look like superstars. Lets wait a few more games before planning the victory parade.

Miami didn't look so hot during the entire preseason. Those incredibly atrocious rings they were given prior to the game probably didn't help either.

I agree on not planning anything. But with big bodies on the glass and you guns that can run the floor, I think bodes real well.

Bulls were outstanding plus last nite !!

Tonite they play the Orlando Magic n Orlando's home / season opener. The Magic will not be fawning over any rings and will probably provide a truer indication of the Bulls potential for this year.

Well the score should easily be closer, but the Magic have sucked recently and shouldn't provide anything other than a second win.


LOL, although I just looked at the score and saw dem Bulls is gettin' spanked at da half... ooops

What's that sound? It's the sound of everyone jumping off the Bulls bandwagon already...

Magic win by 15 tonight. The Orlando Magic.

The Magic have a great young core. They basically stole Darko from the Pistons, and with Howard already in the middle, that's a young and formidable 4-5 combo. Jameer Nelson won me over with his play as a senior at St. John's(I believe he played at this college) and they are definetly an up-and-coming team.

Boy, what a difference 4 weeks makes,

They look terrible

zef204

And now 2 weeks later...

Back to .500 and won 6 in a row. I bet they finish 7or 8 games over .500 and that will get them in the playoffs. Consiering how bad the Eastern conference is they may be able to win a series.

They have a lot of good young players, so they could keep up a great pace, but after knowing how badly they played after opening night until recently, I'm not getting my hopes up.

They absolutely destroyed the Sixers last night. The Sixers are 5-12 and only 2 games out of first!!!
