Bulls Win is Golden

The Bulls victory over the Cavaliers is significant for two reasons:

1. They took advantage of the schedule. You must beat better teams when they play back-to-back games.
2. The Bulls also fed off each other. The young players got each other to play better as a group - not as individuals. They can't play this consistently every night but they need to win when they have good nights. Wins build confidence.

When these two things happen together, favorable schedule and players on-their-game, you should be able to beat any team.

Oh, I was (and still am) down on the Cavaliers' high preseason ranking. So far, that pessimism looks foolish. Cleveland is leading the Division.

Still, it's a long season and I am very stubborn. It's still possible that the Bulls will turn this season around this month and be one of the better young teams this spring. No Trades needed.
