The 2006-2007 Chicago Bulls Thread

[Jon]

Nash and Diaw are out tonight for the Suns. Tyrus Thomas will start for PJ Brown, who is out with back spasms.

 

Like the last game, it's on ESPN.

Definitely a winnable game for the Bulls.

[Flames24Rulz]

I don't care if Nash and Diaw are out. That was a solid first quarter for us. Keep it up.

[UMFan83]

Bulls playing relatively well, but they have for parts of each game on this trip so...

[Jon]

That's at least the third really bogus foul call on the Bulls. And now a technical...

[Flames24Rulz]

Bulls lead 61-50 at half. Nice little run the final 2 minutes of the 2nd quarter to get the lead up to double digits.

[Jon]

And now they look quite horrible.

[Flames24Rulz]

20-2 run for Phoenix.

 

Yay for Skiles and his lack of ability to make adjustments.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Awful way to close out the quarter. Gordon and Hinrich need to go to the rack more.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

The refs in this game sure love blowing the whistle. I hate games like this where everything is called.

[Flames24Rulz]

Hinrich is having a big game tonight. 25 so far after his 3 that puts us up by 5.

[Mark_R]

Hinrich has been studly the last few weeks. I'm so glad to have the captain back to playing the way we know he can play.

[Flames24Rulz]

Deng and Gordon each had 29 and Hinrich had 27. Great night for those 3.

 

I'll take a 3-4 road trip. It could've been a lot better than that, but I'm not going to complain too much.

[1908]

Great win. First double-digit loss by the Suns in 51 games.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Great road win, even if the Suns didn't have Nash.

I always kind of look at the records of teams and watch until all teams pass 10 loses, only one team hasn't passed that Dallas at 9. I think 72-10 is safe for another year.

[Mark_R]

Kirk's "funk" ended on January 8th after a 1/11 shooting night against Houston where he scored two points. Since then, he's been at

 

19.7 PPG

7 APG

4.4 RPG

2.7 A/TO ratio

48% from the field

37.5% from downtown

87% from the charity stripe

 

This is the Kirk Hinrich I think we'll see the rest of this year. He's been phenominal lately. In addition to his much improved offensive play, he's played stellar defense all year (in the coming days, I'll do some statistical work on the players he's guarded this year, obviously there are some potential flaws, but will give a good idea of how he has played this year defensively...)

That record may never be broken.

Haha, good to see I'm not the only one who does that.

Sounds like those 72 Dolphins to me :D

 

Really though, I'm just glad that out of the 10 Chicago losses all year, the Pacers were responsible for 2 of them out of the 4 games they played.

I was so mad that we lost to them the second to last game of the year. It was essentially meaningless to us, but knowing the way MJ thinks, there is no way that he wanted to have double digit losses that year.

I would be willing to bet that, at the start of the road trip, not too many people had the Bulls losing to the Kings and Warriors while beating the Suns.

Yeah for real. What a crazy road trip.
