Most boring NBA team to watch

Where everyone discusses football, and two dorks try to pretend people actually like the NBA and spam what should be in PMs.

I'd give them a shot, simply because the teams they're competing with for the seventh or eighth spot are also heavily flawed.

Adding Hughes was a big step in the right direction. I'd say that places them squarely ahead of the teams I listed in the bottom tier of the Eastern playoffs.

Honestly, I'm not sold on Chicago either, much as I'd like to be. This was the first time they've made the playoffs after several years of nearly dropping out of the league. I'm not totally convinced they have a winning mentality yet, and I'm not entirely sure who they have that can carry them through rough stretches in games and on the schedule.


Winning mentality? Meh, give me a tough defensive mentality any time, which is exactly what Chicago displayed last year. When you play strong team defense, you don't need a superstar to get you through the rough patches.
