Unless Philly can shoot hot every night like they did yesterday, NO. Philly I would say is the most inconsistent team in the league and they have a very high possibility of blowing their next 2 home games.

With Rose out I wouldn't really call it much of an upset. It's more of a 50-50. The 76ers will not be able to shoot the rest of the series the way they did in the 2nd half of last night's game. I expect it to be a close series, but the Bulls will probably take it in 6-7. Even as a Bulls fan though, I wouldn't be surprised to see the 76ers win it, and would not call it an upset now that Rose is out.

What do you mean could, they will!
The Bulls were 7 & 5 against teams heading to the playoffs during the regular season without Rose. So the odds tell you that they are going to struggle.
They barely beat Phili in game #1 and Rose was there until the last couple of minutes.
They lost game #2 by 19pts on their home court without Rose.
now they are going to the opponents home court, where the 76ers WILL play better. Statistics show that young players play worse on an opponents court, and stats show that the Bulls (without Rose) only win 2/3 of their games. But that is against differing opponents, not against the same team in a series.
So the Odds are against the Bulls to win this series. Forget the crap about "they will play harder for Derrick". That works for maybe one game in front of your own fans, and guess what ... it failed! Phili is about to spank that @$$!

Bulls wont make it far without Rose anyways, so it's better if the winner of the Hawks/Celtics plays a healthy team like the 76ers, so I think 76ers can win this in 6.

Yes, I thought the Sixers could oust the Bulls even before Derrick Rose was injured (because he was banged up and not playing up to his potential). Now that he's officially out and the series tied 1-1 and going back to Philadelphia, the Sixers can definitely beat Chicago. They won Game 2 in Chicago which is hard to do.

Technically, Chicago moved right down to style 7 as quickly as they lost, so the activity between the cavs and sixers replaced into pointless, through fact it replaced into already desperate sometime for the time of the activity, win or lose, they might nonetheless be #6 through tiebreaker. yet definite, Cavs lucked out, and us followers lucked out too, we get 2 super sequence between bulls/celtics and sixers/magic. can no longer say a similar relating to the cavs/pistons sequence.

telling by the way they played yesterday, I think it is definately possible, but I still think the Bulls will win it in 7 games.

yes they are a experienced team and without the Bulls having Rose that gives them a good advantage
