No bashing. It is your view.

Ya I agree. East is very weak. Even the Cavs may not make it out of the East.

I am a Bulls fan.

 

[truebluefan]

Dang 6 walks in 2 innings. I could do that.

 

[yankeesince59]

...my god Carter sucks.

Cavs were relatively mediocre and oddly inconsistent this year.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^Ron, you beat me to the same thought.......but I will say, Carter sucks! LOL

Now, I feel better.

...6 BBs and 6 Ks and 60 pitches in 2 innings.

 

[yankeesince59]

...amazing to me how good Castro looks defensively on tough plays but sometimes looks inept on routine plays.

True. It is however very hard to make back to back championships in the NBA. So they have been there and done that.

Cavs are one year older, and quite frankly as a team has not played very good defense most of the season.

I think both the Raptors and the Wizards could beat them.

...Carter is Dave Kingman 2.0.

That was a nice play.
