The 2006-2007 Chicago Bulls Thread

[BigSlick]

I like Grizzled- Nocioni. Sexy.

[Jon]

Wow. Peterson is thrown out on the hard foul.

[Andy]

Whoa, what just happened??!?!?!

 

Mo-Pete's been tossed out of the game for a flagrant, Calderon just got called for a T, both on Hinrich's getting fouled on a layup.

 

It didn't look intentional (or as I like to call it, it didn't look like a Posey shot).

[Andy]

Big mistake by Mo-Pete - it looked like the Bulls were going to mail in this game, but I think they're going to turn it to fourth gear now.

[BigSlick]

Argh...come on Bulls. Enforce your will.

[Jon]

Ugh. What a stupid foul on Thabo after a solid second quarter.

 

What a horrible decision by Gordon...and a great 3.

[Flames24Rulz]

50-46 Bulls at the half.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I sure wish this game was on, you know, a channel I could watch. :|

[Andy]

Ben Gordon just popped out of a screen with 6 on the shot clock, pulled up and drained a 20-footer.

 

When it comes down to it, he might be the only player in the entire league that can get away with taking shots like that.

[Jon]

This is ugly.

[Flames24Rulz]

This is embarrassing.

[BigSlick]

Ok, Bulls, stop screwing around. This is unbelievable.

[UMFan83]

Can anyone tell me how Noc looked when he was in there?

[BigSlick]

Evidently the gameplan is: "move around a lot without productive passing and shoot jump shots"

[BigSlick]

UNBELIEVABLE

 

I don't understand how we aren't leading by 10, this is like some bizarro universe.

[Andy]

Well, that's that. Blown opportunity on this night.

[Flames24Rulz]

Hahahahaha, 14 point swing from the 2nd quarter to the 3rd. 20 point swing considering we were leading by 10. This team just loves to blow leads.

[Soul]

Another in a long line of 3rd quarter badgazms.

 

Blah, big time opportunity going by the boards tonight.

[Flames24Rulz]

Truth be told, I had no idea that Juan Dixon was on the Raptors (or still in the league for that matter). That's real bad.

[Jon]

And it's this close to becoming a blowout.

[Soul]

16 point deficit. It's over gentlemen.

 

Strange that the Bulls pick tonight, after getting such a great opportunity from the Cavs earlier in the day, to play as bad as we've seen in a long time.

 

Perhaps they don't feel facing the Heat in the 1st round is a problem.

We played well the first 2 1/2 quarters. I don't know what happened in the middle of the 3rd.

[Mark_R]

Heat lost too.

 

If you look at it from the perspective that the Bulls remaining schedule is a cake walk (as is Cleveland's), then Toronto winning today (coupled with the Heat losing) puts the Bulls controlling their own destiny still for the two seed while Toronto is up two on the Heat for the three seed.

 

With only a few games to play, Bulls matching Cleveland's record gets them the second seed and a high likelihood of facing Toronto in the second round instead of the Heat.

 

Just looking for some silver lining in a bad performance today :D

Thanks, hopefully it will still work out. We could have provided the kill shot yesterday though.....kind of disappointing we didn't although as you say it's not the end of the world.

 

I don't want to face the Heat 1st round, but I was thinking maybe it's better to face them in the 1st round when Wade still isn't fully back than in the 2nd round, when his shoulder might be stronger. Then again, the Heat have been playing well without him and with Shaq doing his best Roger Clemens impression (taking most of the season off so he can swoop in just in time for the playoffs).

Wade was just 6/12 from the line yesterday. Something is still wrong with him.
