Next 3 games: at Oklahoma City, vs. LA Lakers, at Washington.

 

Which one is the most likely win?

[Cynosure]

They actually beat a good team? :shock:

LA. Loss to OKlahoma City and Washington.

[Soul]

Or perhaps they lose all 3, but the only game they have a good showing is the LA game at home.

 

That would suck. They lose to bad teams on the road though, and the Lakers are a much better ballclub.

[David]

They actually beat a good team? :shock:

 

Is this sarcasm?

 

Beating good teams is something they do. Particularly at home. They just blew out New Orleans. They beat Cleveland earlier in the year. They blew out Orlando. They beat the Rockets. etc.

 

It'll surprise me more if they beat a terrible team.

[David]

I think they're just much better at home. They've beaten a few good teams at the United Center.

 

They've only got 10 wins on the road. More than double that at home.

 

 

Yup at home this team is completely different. I dont know what it is and apparently they dont either, cause they are horrific on the road.

 

 

Reminds me of the 02-03 team... difference being that that team cost itself a shot at LeBron/Melo/Wade/(Darko) by being so good at home.

It's funny seeing Salmons be the player for us that Deng was supposed to be and at a fraction of the cost. I really hope that we never see Deng again in a Bulls uniform that overpaid bum.

Well I'm no basketball expert, but it seems like we misdiagnose talent too often, and then poorly coach the talent that we do have.

 

I wonder if Salmons is performing well right now for the simple fact that he's fresh from another coaching staff -- fresh off someone else's evaluation plate.

 

Remember Chandler.

Today you guys are going up against my team. It shouldn't be much of a challenge to you even though we just finished beating san antionio. GO THUNDER!!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Thanks for beating the Celtics, with the Cavs beating the Magic it's given them a stranglehold on the 1 seed. Still gotta keep in front of LA to get homecourt for the potential Finals matchup though.

[bukie]

How many teams have beaten the Celtics, Cavs and Magic this year?

 

Any of them lose to Washington and OK City?

[Flames24Rulz]

It shouldn't be? I'm more worried about the likes of Oklahoma City, Washington, and Toronto than Boston, Cleveland, Orlando, and the Lakers.

Coaching is the only logical explanation. Del Negro doesn't get this team up when they face teams that they should handle easily.

The upcoming loss @OKC is a foregone conclusion.

[Guest]

I'll take a loss to OKC if it comes with a victory over the Lakers. :)

It was pretty sweet when Iggy buried the Lakers with that 3 at the buzzer last night. And Phil, in his usually smarmy but hilarious manner, threw Ariza under the bus in the post game for not using the foul to give.

I was at a restaurant with all Lakers fans when Igoudala hit that shot, it was glorious.

I cant agree with that. I dont like Del Negro as a coach as much as the next guy, but these guys are pros. The coach really shouldnt have to give them pep talks, or motivate them to beat a lousy team.

Although I do believe the coaching is horrible I also think talent evaluation good and bad have a lot to do with it as well.

And then have a chance to miss the playoffs.

[cubswin2009]

I think we win tonight.

[RedFlash]

I think we win tonight.

 

No way dude. They beat Celtics last night, so according to Bulls logic they must lose tonight against the Thunder.

[David]

Rose has forgotten how to miss.

[SpongeWorthy]

Wow, a road win.

[cubswin2009]

Rose went 10-10 in the 2nd half with 9 jumpers made.
