Few days from now, the NBA will officially be open once again. With Derrick Rose still recovering from his injury and with the off season lost of many players, do you think the Bulls could still make the playoffs?
I think the Bulls will make the playoffs this season. Because although they lost many players, those players are all bench players for the Bulls last season. They still have their starters this season. And I think those new additions will soon be get use to the system of coach Thibodeau. And after I watch the video of Rose, I knew they would make it to the playoffs. Because Rose said that his focus for this season is to win a championship

I am a fan of the NBA entirely and always give support to the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern conference ahead of the Celtics. I love Derrick Rose, he is an outstanding players and proved his MVP worth when he took them to the Eastern Conference playoffs last season. Though, he picked up an injury which later told on the teams overall performance.
I really still see them getting to the playoffs despite Rose being uncertain for the team for the first half of the season. I hope he gets fit on time and could lead the team to the finals of the conference, where they are mostly likely to get a replay chance with the Heat, who would definately out-class Celtics.

Yes. I also hope that they could face the Heat in the playoffs.

Allenwrites, the Bulls vs Heat match up in the playoffs would be one amazing game not to miss, but before the playoffs let's see how the play during the season.

I don't think whether they will make the playoffs is really in question at this point. The question is how far will they go. A lot hinges on Rose and his durability. I honestly think they will get there but I don't expect them to go all the way.

This would be painful for Rose; himself. Not having them in the playoffs might also be devastating for the fans, and why this continues to linger on, it is as a result of Rose outstanding performance and contribution to the team. He is the heart of the team, without him the Bulls play like a college team.

I think that the Chicago Bulls will definitely reach the playoffs even without Derrick Rose but they will need him to win a championship most likely. They did lose some of their great bench players such as C.J. Watson, Omer Asik, and Ronnie Brewer. They also got rid of Kyle Korver but he's pretty hit or miss. Even though they lost some of their great back up and role players it will give some of their other really good back up players more time to play.
Jimmy Butler and Taj Gibson are two guys that definitely deserve more time and both have a lot of talent. They still have their key guys as well such as Luol Deng, Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Richard Hamilton and Carlos Boozer. If they can have that as their starting lineup they could easily make it to the finals and maybe even win it. They did also pick up some pretty good players as well such as Kirk Hinrich, an excellent defender, Nate Robinson, and Vladimir Radmonovic is alright but not great. Anyways I hope they can stay healthy because I'm a really big fan of the Chicago Bulls.
