Someone looked at Dwyane Wade. Better call a foul.

 

Fixed.

 

Yeah him too. It was hilarious to see Thabo jump out of Gilbert's way to avoid contact, avoid touching him completely, yet get called for the foul. That's the NBA for you, though.

Can I say that I'm extremely happy with Thabo, and wish he'd play more?

 

Yes you can. He had a couple feeds last night that were just amazing. That one to Wallace blew me away. I thought for sure it would wind up in the defender's gut :)

 

This kid sees the floor very well.

Yeah, it's obvious Gilbert has reached Kobe/Lebron/Wade status.

Thank God it's still a team sport. Refs are trying their hardest to eliminate that pesky little detail, though.

It's complete crap that Simmons gave us an "F-infinity-minus" in his trade-deadline grades and made up some trade offer that never existed (Deng, TT, and the draft pick) for Gasol and said we should have done it. Even a modicum of research would have shown that Memphis was demanding two of our core, and Deng is as good as Pau right now IMO.

Who cares about Simmons? Sports media sucks.

I don't as it pertains to us. He doesn't know much of anything about the Bulls, and I like it that way.

I'd take Deng over Gasol too. Dudes only 21 years old.

I must say that I love the Wiz uniforms. And more Thabo. And a lot less Griffin (what purpose does he serve?).

 

Gotta get Tyrus and Thabo more minutes with Noc out so in the playoffs we aren't counting on losers like Griff to give us a few solid minutes.

 

I miss Noc and want him to be healthy, however, does anyone have an idea if this could potentially make him less valuable on the open market and allow the Bulls to sign him to a cap friendly deal?

 

If he's going to get too much money (above the MLE), I'd try and work out a sign and trade for him...

My guess is, with Noc sitting on the bench and the Bulls registering their most important wins of the year without him, his value is dropping a little.

 

I don't know how it will shake out. Seems to me that a healthy Noc means less minutes for a guy like Griff. I think that's a good thing, so I'd like to see Noc healthy ASAP.

Gah. I'm away from the game for 15 minutes and their 12 point lead gets cut to 4.

Thanks to another "we'll enforce the 'no bitching rule' if you're a Chicago Bull" technical on Ben Wallace.

They cant do anything right now. Crappy end to the quarter. We need Gordon and Hinrich back in the game. Oh, and for the offense to NOT go through Adrian Griffin.

Scott Skiles is a wildly overrated coach. No timeouts during a 12-0 run? Adrian Griffin in a game playing meaningful minutes?

 

I don't care if Noc has no legs, Griffin shouldn't ever be on the floor unless it's garbage time.

Note to PJ: When you have the ball under the basket all alone, how about you just dunk it next time instead of trying to draw a foul with no chance of making the shot?
