The Bulls Rock.

If there is one thing the Bulls can take away from their final meeting with the Pistons it’s that they shouldn’t be scared of anyone in the East. Detroit is unanimously considered the best team in the conference, and the Bulls beat them three out of four games this season, including two wins in the past week. The Bulls could have swept the season series against the Pistons if Ben Gordon had a hit a jumper as time expired in a game at Detroit earlier this year.

There’ll be columnists and announcers saying that the Bulls better continue to win over their last seven games of the regular season so they can overtake Cleveland for the two seed. They’ll say that if the Bulls don’t pass the Cavs they will be risking a possible first round matchup with Miami and a second round series with the Pistons. While the other route they could face may be more desirable, possibly playing the Wizards and Raptors, the Bulls shouldn’t be scared of anyone in their conference. The way they have been playing lately, with Tyrus Thomas making the transition from exciting to good, with Gordon’s ability to hit a crunch time jumper, and with Nocioni coming back on Friday, the Bulls are proving that the may be the class of the Eastern Conference.

Rick did you catch the Bulls/Pistons tilt on Wed night? Seriously, Detroit fans are a bunch of chumps. Rip Hamilton got tired of getting tossed around like a rag doll by Tyrus, and started mouthing off.

Thomas tried to be the bigger man and walked away, then because Rip kept following him and yapping they both got tossed from the game.

On the way to the tunnel some idiot in the stands threw a projectile at Thomas. Detroit fans are a bunch of lowlifes. Apparently they didn't learn anything when the moron threw his drink at Ron Artest inciting the Palace Brawl.

I hope we see Detroit in the playoffs, so we can kick their a.s.s. once more.

Yeah dog i watched most of that game but actually didnt see that little scuffle. Hopefully those Pistons fans wont get too hurt when they're burning cars after the Bulls sweep them in the conference finals.
