Will Chicago Bulls be in NBA Finals?


Tim Duncan was the last player to get MVP and championship in the same year. He did it about a decade ago. I am not sure about this time, but it is highly probable that Rose might repeat it. Derrick Rose is on fire this season. He was very impressive in last two games. He took over and beat Pacers almost by himself.

Luck is also favoring Bulls. Jeff Foster got Offensive foul at the last minute in second game. To me it looked like a defensive foul and immediately after that Boozer pushed a Pacer out of the court and Bulls got the ball back! 

President is interested in watching NBA finals in arena especially if Bulls are there. Isn’t that motivating enough for Bulls to play hard?

Bulls got home court advantage and fans love talking about foul calls going in favor of home teams all the time.

Seems like Bulls got everything on their way:
Rose is on fire. He is top ten in scoring and in assist.

Boozer and Noah are great in front court offensively and defensively. League is based on so many great centers which is key to win championship and Noah is capable of holding any center. Lakers are back to back champs and big men like Gasol, Odom and Bynum are getting a lot of credit in addition to Kobe. Boozer knows how to knock down jumpers very well.

Kyle Korver is a clutch 3 point shooter. Luol Deng is very good SF. He is capable of producing enormous lineup on any given night.

Rose got enough fire power to win games single landlady. Rests of Bulls got enough fire power to win any game if Rose is not able to produce on a given day. Aside from starter, bulls got 4 bench players who are averaging much more than 15 minutes a game.

In addition of enormous talent, luck in favoring them and President can’t wait to go watch finals in Chicago.

It is highly probable that Bulls will be in the finals this season.

What do you think? Will they be in NBA Finals?

Will Dwight Howard leave the Orlando Magic?

Superman had the best performance of his life on Saturday just to loose against the team they swept last season. Magic created a record by sweeping Hawks last season with margin of 100+ total points. Their hopes were high as they were facing the same team this Saturday. Superman posted a monster lineup, but they lost the game!

I think Howard might be frustrated at his team-mates as it looked like only him and Jameer showed up to play the game on Saturday.

There is no doubt that Magic wants to keep Howard. They try very hard. They got Lewis and Hedo, but it didn’t work. So they got rid of Hedo, and got Vince Carter, but it didn’t work as well. So they got rid of Lewis and Vince Carter and got Hedo back. They also added Arenas and Richardson. But they lost first game. What if they loose second game tonight? Would Howard leave Magic?

Sound familiar. Isn’t it?
Cavs wanted to keep James and they changed their roster a lot. Mo Williams, Jamison, Shaq are few big names that cavs shuffled to win the championship and to keep James. They even gave a huge contract to Varejao. But what happened? Cavs had best record in the regular season for a couple of years just to loose in playoffs. And what did James do? He decided to bring his talent to South Beach. Is this similar? Is Superman tired and will consider leaving Magic?
