Running with the Bulls

With the return of Joakim Noah, the Chicago Bulls are the team to beat in the NBA Eastern Conference.

With the championship caliber coaching of Tom Thibodeau (who is my Coach of the Year) and leadership of third year point guard Derrick Rose (who is my season's Most Valuable Player,) the Bulls are favorites to make it out of the East.

Chicago is 39-17 on the season and recently got Noah back into the line-up and the Bulls are no where near of slowing down their pace.

Thus far the team is third in the East and two and a half behind No. 1 seed, the Boston Celtics and two back of the Miami Heat, who the Bulls defeated tonight, 93-89.

Alongside Rose and Noah is a solid supporting cast that includes Carlos Boozer, Kyle Klover, Luol Deng, Taj Gibson and Ronnie Brewer.

In a recent video from "Bballbreakdown" it shows how the supporting cast is benefiting from the coaching of Thibodeau and leadership of Rose.

Deng has improved his shooting based on the Bulls' team defense that leads to great team offense.

The other supporting cast held the fort down during the absents of Noah and now with Noah back from his injury, the Bulls are lead contenders in the East and are capable of defeating the Celtics and Heat in a seven-game series.

As said in the "Bballbreakdown" video, the Bulls are contenders now.
