Normally NBA regular season games are a snooze-fest. But any time the Bulls and Heat play it's must see TV.

I'm in for the first 2 weeks, then out until Christmas, then back in for 2 weeks, then out until the playoff races, then back in for the last 5 games, then out until the 1st round of playoffs in over, then back in until the end.

Kind of sounds like me.

Pretty great ring ceremony to start the new season. Now onto the three-peat!

How I have missed you Derrick.

Although looking at a Bulls team that fails to make a good off season addition. I think Butler will have a breakout season though. Horrible call on that charge.

Sounds like 95% of NBA fans...me being one of them. Except for the games the Bulls play on national tv or WGN. Watching DRose this year is going to be great. He looks quicker and has added 5 inches to his vert...which is insane.

I would say Dunleavy was a solid addition. Cap space issues wouldn't allow them to sign any huge contracts.

I guess Dunleavy yet to be seen. Haven't seen anything from him yet and in preseason. Never saw him play much for the Bucks.

Heat looking like they are too much for the Bulls.

If Miami is 100% healthy there is no team in the league that can beat them 4 out of 7 times. It remains to be seen if Wade can make it through a season healthy though and if he's not 100% then there are a few teams who could beat them including the Bulls.

He played quite a bit for the Bucks but last season the game looked like it was getting past him. The guy is just too old now.

Pretty bold considering how close the Pacers and Spurs were to them.
