Celtics vs. Bulls



I apologize for the blurriness of the screen shot from Streak for Cash. However, if you can make it out it does make a nice point. 53.9% of people are picking the Bulls. I'm not saying those percentages make a ton of sense. And the Bulls are home. But it's a testament to just how different this Celtics team is.

Lingering Questions:

- Does Paul Pierce have a "carry the team" performance in him?
- How will Rajon Rondo fare?
- Do the C's now have the thinnest front line of any playoff team?
- Will Vinny Del Negro let Tyrus Thomas loose to block shots until his heart is content?
- First Derrick Rose. Then Ben Gordon. Who's next?
- More unlikable: Joakim Noah, Anderson Varejao or Bruce Bowen.

Couple of Random Thoughts:

- I'm convinced that a lot of NBA guys respect Chris Paul and secretly despise him.
- The difference between Boston and Chicago's respective benches is outrageous.
- This probably deserves it's own post, but I don't even remotely understand it. He's 34! He fumbled once and threw five picks in his last game! This is outrageous.
