Bulls are #1 seed with home court advantage and are +162.

My first thought: is it possible the Heat are being given too much credit for beating the Celtics? The Celtic name certainly has grand historic significance but was this particular edition really that formidable? Haven't they been a ~.500 team for months?

I don't know. Who you got in this?
 
I like the Bulls very much for the series. Miami beat an old Celtic team that could not play a 48 minute game. Don't forget, games 4 & 5 against the Celtics, the C's had outplayed them until 3 minutes left to go in both games. The Bulls have the youth and a player that will not take outside shots in the closing minutes. Bulls win in 5 IMO.
 
I hate the Heat, not as it applies to this series but in general. I'm not a Bulls fan either for what it's worth. I do like underdogs as I can relate to them on a personal level.

The potential is no doubt there for Miami though. As youthful and entertaining as Chicago is they appear to be a better coached team as well as being a more coachable team. If they can get out early and get up in the series early it could go the distance and they have a shot however Miami even if it's just Wade and LeBron for the most part SHOULD win this in 5.

Rooting for Muddy not the Heat though. We need Muddy to win some money so when he goes to appear on Jeopardy he can afford to eat at some finer places and stay away from McDonalds.

I don't usually bet the playoffs.

I learned this from someone who is very smart.

Not too many, still waiting to see them in a fair fight close it out. The bulls got lucky with the threes run that separated them from the heat. That doesn't happen every game.

they beat them in 2 close games in Miami at the end of the year. The last one was the famed Bosh crying in the locker room after the game. Miami has only one advantage - the combo of Wade/James. Bulls have every other one.
