The 2006-2007 Chicago Bulls Thread

[Jon]

How the hell do you lose that game!?

 

Horrible.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Screw you, Duhon.

[illiniguy]

Sacramento's player of the game Chris Duhon. Nice play ribs.

[Derwood]

Wow, Duhon really crapped the bed at the end of that one

[wolf stansson]

Screw Chris Duhon.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Why in God's name was Ben Gordon NOT in when you need a game-winning shot?

[USSoccer]

Duhon made 3 lousy plays in a row, but what cost them was free throw disparity.

[Derwood]

Where the hell was Gordon in the last minute?

[Flames24Rulz]

Turned out to be a blessing in disguise that I couldn't watch that game.

[illiniguy]

Adding Ben Wallace made them marginally better than what Tyson did, imo. They are going to need a one on one player to be a really great team in this league.

well they have no inside scoring, which was the strength with Curry/Chandler

[illiniguy]

Oh yeah and Deron Williams is by far a better point guard than Kirk Hinrich. Hinrich is a better all around player though. The Bulls have a lot of duplicate pieces.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Hinrich is just fine for this team, it's the lack of inside scoring that's really hurting them.

[illiniguy]

Yeah, but I wish they had a true pg with Kirk. It would help his shooting so much. By true point I mean other than Duhon.

[Derwood]

Hinrich is just fine for this team, it's the lack of inside scoring that's really hurting them.

 

yep, it's sorta like the Illini team with Head, Williams and Brown. They can shoot 3's all night and midrange jumpers, but have no one to score inside consistently. if one or more of your outside guys get in foul trouble, suddenly the scoring options dry up

Except Duhon isn't as good as any of those three guys. Oh and Augustine has more O than Ben.

Homer alert.

I really don't think Duhon is as good as any of those three. The only one he has a chance at is Dee.

 

Compare Luther Head to Chris Duhon

Totals (Regular Season)

Name Year G MP FG FGA TP TPA FT FTA ORB DRB TRB AST STL BLK TOV PF PTS

Luther Head 2006 80 2308 254 630 113 313 86 123 33 233 266 215 89 9 119 169 707

Chris Duhon 2006 74 2157 215 538 100 278 117 143 28 192 220 373 70 3 117 152 647

Difference 6 151 39 92 13 35 -31 -20 5 41 46 -158 19 6 2 17 60

 

Luther is better in almost every spot.

 

If you think Duhon is better than Deron Williams, you as a Bulls fan, are the homer. That said he is probably better than Dee Brown. SO you are right, Duhon might have been able to play for Illinois. Might.

You really think Augustine has more O than Ben?

[illiniguy]

You really think Augustine has more O than Ben?

Yeah, he can step out and hit a 15 footer. A lot of people don't realize how talented James really is, we weren't all guards. I think Ben might be the worst offensive player ever. Still he is very valueable.

Dennis Rodman would have to disagree with you there

Nah at one point Dennis Rodman could score, he just quit doing it. Also he made a few threes in his career. Ben didn't hit rim on a 14 footer tonight.

Last year he was.

 

Duhon 12.95 PER

Head 11.24 PER

Williams 12.42 PER

 

Hinrich 15.56 PER

Tyson Chandler is worse then both of them. At least Wallace can dribble the ball and has moves. He can also pass well.

[Mark_R]

I'd like to point out that I was there tonight (as was umfan) and this was excrutiating to watch in person. Slow and bad basketball, ugh.
