I have only just returned to watching the NBA after a 20 year break (yeah, you heard right). I was (still am) a Jordan fan who didn't see the point post-Jordan.Love the game (play and coach it still) but NBA post-Jordan...meh lol

I have watched many games this past month and a half trying to decide whether to keep following my formerly beloved bulls or start afresh with a new team.

Watching the Timberwolves go down to the Warriors today I liked what I saw in the Timberwolves. Positive future with Wiggins/Towns/Lavine...

I was surprised to find that the 2016 Bulls look ok.



I must say, plugging the defensive hole Green has left, the Warriors still look so dangerous.

I'm a big Harden fan...from a team I once followed as a backup on account of Olajuwon lol

Yes Jordan and Olajuwon are top five of all time in thier respective positions.

I grew up watching the Bulls vs suns finals as a kid. I went for the suns, still do lol.

Yeah. Barkley and Jordan had some great moments on court.

Well, i think i will stick with my bulls. Butler has some game. Rondo and wade still getting it done. Lopez's inside game is very good. Valentine will eventually come into his own. Its hard watching a bulls team with no number 23 but i will eventually get over it. Lol. Hell, when i saw mj sitting courtside at one of his hornets games i almost converted to the hornets. Haha.

But...i will stick with the bulls.

Some great talent in the league. I should have got back into watching it long ago. Never saw Kobe play a single game. Sad really.

Post Jordan era was okay too. It was dominated by kobe, Duncan and shaq.

What do you think of LeBron? Is he a 1a compared to the goat?

Tbh i have only seen him a couple of times. Yeah he is a superstar but i wilk hold my judgement until the playoffs. I want to see how much and in what way he lifts come playoffs. I have obviously heard how well he did last season and clearly he is a great player...but i want to see it for myself.

...but im (almost) certain i wont hold him in mjs company. Lol

Looking forward to seeing these 'superstars' play this season.

I watch durant, curry, williams, westbrook etc and there are some seriously good players.

Still trying to familiarise myself with who is who...and loving it.


What about you, Koops... Jordan v James?

I need to add this though, Koops.

I watch the current superstars and apart from flashes of magic, none of them have mjs presence. I dont find myself getting excited, feel the anticipation that was always felt watching any Bulls game when jordan played. Maybe im biased. Lol

Definitely biased for sure lol

LeBron is right up there but Jordan's six from six will always be the talking point when comparisons are made.

Who's Williams? You added him with durants and westbrooks. Speaking of westbrook, he's averaging a triple so far. Never done since the big o.

Yeah pretty amazing to average triple-double. I still havent seen him play this season. I did hear something about him putting up huge shots each night and a low fg% But there will always be critics if this is true. Regardless...a triple double is special. Averaging it is ridiculous.

Loved watching my bulls take out cavs today. A tired looking cavs in the second half To be fair. But Rondo with a triple double and gibson killing them inside.

I was treated to a nice windmill dunk from james yesterday in their loss to the clippers. Steal and dunk by lebron was a nice glimpse.

Btw...the clippers are such a good team. Very impressdd

Klay Thompson gets a lazy 60 points in only 29 minutes, sits out the last quarter.
