ESPN Eastern Conference predictions

Bulls in at #9... Better that I'd expect them to predict but hopefully worse than how things really turn out

That's about where I'd expect all the "experts" to put them

I think everyone’s going to be afraid to rate them too high or too low. Not that you can blame them, because there are too many question marks.

We have every right to dream heroic dreams. Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look.

I wish they would have shown the rankings for each "expert"

Partly so I know who to add to the hate list, but also I’d really like to know the range. I suspect with the Bulls that it could be pretty big, given unsettled roster questions and the great 06-07/craptacular 07-08 history.

With the roster in limbo right now...that's pretty fair of a ranking

If not a little too generous.

I’m gonna rule this world. I’m gonna kick some ass. I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Rock, flag, and eagle!"

Yeah.

Thing is, the Bulls could all return to 06-07 form and win 50 games,
or they could stay at 07-08 form and win 30,
or they could have D-Rose push them over or under those numbers.
Nobody really knows what to expect, so that’s, oh, let’s say a realistically possible 25 game +-. Not the best for accurate predictions.
