The 2006-2007 Chicago Bulls Thread

[Soul]

Very Cub-like loss by the Bulls tonight.

 

I'm sure Duhon feels terrible. I don't recall him throwing away a ton of ballgames like that....

 

This better not be the start of a losing streak.

[illiniguy]

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.

Last year he was.

 

Duhon 12.95 PER

Head 11.24 PER

Williams 12.42 PER

 

Hinrich 15.56 PER

What is this Per? Ask either Utah or Houston if they would trade their guys for Duhon. :roll: It must be nice to just throw a stat out that you don't identify. Also take into consideration Williams was 21 last year and Duhon was 24. By the way Williams led his team tonight to a vistory over Nash's Suns. The Phoenix announcers praised Deron all night.

You're online; what's the first link when you search for PER and basketball on Google?

 

I'd take Williams over Duhon without a second though. But Head and Brown are in Duhon's class -- fringe NBA starters at best.

You never said that he wasn't as good as Williams, age relative. The fact is that last season, Duhon was as good or better than Williams. Now, would the Bulls do a trade, straight up for the two? Sure.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

LBJ put up 35 and 10 tonight, and the Cavs went down to San Antonio and took it to the Spurs. Sole possession of 1st place in the Central, woot.

[wolf stansson]

Gordon and Duhon were disgusting tonight. Duhon with his careless passing and Gordon with his abominable D. I've never seen a guy get burned more often than Gordon tonight. Ugly.

[Andy]

Uhh, is it too late to trade some of the points we didn't need in Miami for the last two games?

[Andy]

Bulls off to a really nice start against the Bucks. Gordon's shooting well, Thabo's looking good, and Luol Deng might just be blossoming into a star.

[treebird]

haha gordon just made the laziest play ever

[Flames24Rulz]

Thabo with a 3 at the end of the half! Gordon has 22 points and 9 dimes.

 

60-42 Bulls at half :D

[Jon]

I love how they've been able to finish quarters strong. And now they're just dominating.

[Flames24Rulz]

110-85, Bulls win :D

 

Big game against TT's Cavs on Thursday night. First game I'll be able to watch since the Heat game.

[Derwood]

Good win, but why the short bench? Only two guys off the pine with signifcant minutes

Skiles still hasn't found his rotation.

It's always in the last place you look.

you think Duhon only got 4 minutes because of the Sacramento game?

[1908]

First half foul trouble, and then Thabo played great in the first half, so Skiles wanted him out there again in the second.

[Jon]

It seemed like he wanted to take advantage of the lead and sit both Hinrich and Duhon.

[USSoccer]

Thabo has been very impressive as part of the second unit.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

How was Thabo's ball handling yesterday? That will be a nice piece to add to his game, but I think it will take some time for me to trust him in that role.

[1908]

How was Thabo's ball handling yesterday?

Gordon played point most of the time Thabo was on the floor. Thabo had a number of great passes during the game, though.

thabo dominated the flow of the game when he was out there against the bucks.

 

i haven't seen anyone liken his game to scottie's, but to me, it looks like he could be a bigger, stronger version in the future. the guy looks pretty amazing.

Scottie was pretty strong and he can't get taller than Scottie unless he isn't done growing. I don't think he is quite as athletic as Scottie either.

[da bears]

Man the Bulls just suck against the Cavs. What the hell.

[Flames24Rulz]

Our defense looks awful and our offense isn't looking much better. Cleveland has had a ton of wide open shots so far.
