Bulls, Underdogs again? - Joe

Normally when a team reaches the Conference Finals, has the Coach of the Year, and has the reigning M.V.P. they would be heavy favorites and would be attracting more attention just about any other team.

Well this is not a normal year and the Bulls seem to be forgotten about again, just as they were last year. As a Bulls fan, that is just the way I want it.

Being the underdog really seemed to help the Bulls thrive last year and it seems like most national media has written off the Bulls as a team that's not quite there yet. They are rarely brought up when talking about the best teams in the N.B.A.

I don't think that Derrick Rose and the Bulls need added motivation for this year, but I would not be surprised to hear that they are noticing the same thing and are ready to show everyone that last year was no fluke.
