Bless you, Bullsger. When you look at the matchups, overconfidence is almost inevitable. However, these same Pacers recently beat the then 5-2 Heat in Miami. You still have to play the games.
Well it looks like we're going to see a lot more of Kirk than many of us would like! You'd have to think a team with Solomon Hill and Donald Sloan as its starting backcourt and Chris Copeland as its main offensive weapon would have to be terrible, but we did just narrowly escape defeat against the 6ers so you gotta see what happens.
K.C. Johnson @KCJHoop Thibodeau says Rose is out vs. Pacers. K.C. Johnson @KCJHoop Get ready for a lot of Aaron Brooks. Hinrich will start for Rose but Bulls are careful with his minutes.
