The 2006-2007 Chicago Bulls Thread

on another note, i have yet to be impressed by lebron james in the nba. hes lucky shoe companies buy players so young.

 

haha, a real man would've scored all his points in overtime instead of just 7

 

A real man? Who is questioning his masculinity? What are you talking about?......

 

No one really. I do have a little trouble figuring out how you're not impressed with LBJ shooting 14-25 from the field, 11-13 from the line, with 9 assists and 5 boards and being his team's only option on offense for the last 8 minutes + overtime.

Does he have to average 35/10/10 a night to impress you? He's 5th in the league in points while shooting a very good percentage for somebody who scores that much, tied for 50th in rebounds, tied for 17th in assists, and tied for 14th in steals. You're not going to find many other players in the league who are that well balanced, and he's only 22. He is a star in the league, and is the main reason why is team is where it is today. I'm not even a LeBron fan (hard to be when he's in the same division) but he is an amazing player-the best player in the Central Division.

:lol: That was a pretty redicolous comment about LeBron. If I'm building a team from scratch, he is my first pick, easily.

[Flames24Rulz]

I broke my remote.

 

What a choke job.

 

And that remote cost me over $35 as well as not being able to play MVP NCAA 07, which I just rented earlier today.

 

This loss really hurts :(

Well just got back from the game. Great crowd today. Really into the game. I still can't believe they called a foul on Hinrich on the three point play in ot. That looked like absolute crap. And when that foreign dude on Cleveland dove for the ball, and miraculously got a timeout with three seconds leftwhile staying in bounds, that was very iffy. Crowd was really pissed about that one.

 

We really, really, really need Nocioni back. Our bench just blows right now besides Tyrus (who should be starting).

Yeah, both were bad calls.

[rawaction]

Yeah, this game sucked.

[Soul]

I'm glad I had too many things to do to watch this. I might have had to replace some furniture.

[Jon]

Still pissed about that loss...

 

But the Bulls took care of the Hawks 105-97 this afternoon. It will be on tape delay at 5 on WCIU.

 

Two things about the playoff tickets. There is a presale starting at 10 AM on Wednesday. I'll post the password later if I can get it. It looks like there are two, an "internet presale" and a "visa presale," but they're at the same time. Last year, the password was "PLAYOFF," so I'd imagine it'll be something easy to figure out regardless. In addition, the cheap seats cost $12 for the first round and $18 for the second.

 

Does anyone know if there's a playoff schedule out there or have they not even determined the dates yet?

I don't think they determine the playoff schedule until the last day of the regular season.

 

Good win today. Let's hope for a little help from the Celtics in about 40 minutes as they host the Cavs.

"Shouldn't Coach K be here for all these 'Dukies' on the floor?"

 

Nice one, Larrivee.

I saw Wayne at O'hare once.

Keep an eye on the Celtics/Cavs game. Celtics still lead 82-78 with under 9 minutes to play.

No LeBron or Pierce in this game. Bad news. Hopefully Hughes and Pavlovic can hit jumpers well enough.

What happened to LeBron?

 

Don't worry, the Celtics will go into Durant-Oden mode and blow it in the fourth quarter.

Considering the Cavs have outscored the Celtics 15-4 in the 4th and tied it up, I wouldn't be too worried.

He had some soreness in his knee(nothing serious) and "general fatigue". *shrug*

It's called "we just played OT the night before and now we're playing Boston" mode.

 

For those not watching the game on tape delay, Tyrus had quite the steal and open left handed dunk.

[Jon]

Wow. The Celtics tie it up with :38 seconds left and take the lead as West makes both FTs on a shooting foul with just 1 second left!!

[Flames24Rulz]

Cavs lose!!!

[Jon]

Awesome. We're not dead yet!

[Andy]

Hahaha

That Pistons game is the must-win game to end all must-win games on Wednesday night.

Why? Would be a great win, but why is it must-win? The Cavs have a game left at Detroit as well.
