they're probably like a .500ish team without noah

 

i'm just surprised how dead the team looks without him.

 

Or a .630ish team. Most everyone realized that the Bulls would not be able to keep up their level of play when Noah went down. Then when it actually happens some people freak out. Every team goes through ruts and this is just a rut. They will be fine.

once again, look at who they've played since he's been out

 

they're a .630 team, a slong as you get to play 82 games against teams like the cavs, nets, and raptors

 

they've played exactly 1 game against a team over .500 since he went down. the knicks.

 

clippers

sixers

wizards

knicks

pistons

bucks

nets

cavs

raptors

nets

sixers

 

those aren't just bad teams, those are atrocious teams. if we played a neutral schedule since noah went out, we'd be around or below .500

 

even when we were on that 5 game win streak after the knicks loss, they were just barely scraping by against terrible teams. we needed OT to beat the pistons, then let the bucks, nets, and cavs play right with us until the very end.

 

that's bad, and now those close wins are turning into close losses

 

really though it doesn't matter much since the 4 seed is he result anyways. honestly i'm more disappointed with rose and his constant disappearing act in the second half. i thought he'd take this team on his back when noah went out. it seems like hes trying, but he's failing. maybe he's trying too hard.

 

boozer has been the one carrying the load since noah went down.

not sure why you keep ignoring how ridiculously easy the schedule's been

 

with a neutral schedule, they's be at or below .500 since noah went down.

 

there's a difference between their level of play expectedly going down and their level of play taking a huge dump.

 

only reaosn we're 7-4 since he got hurt is because of who the bulls have played.

I already said the schedule has been easy so you must be ignoring the fact that I did not ignore it. The Bulls have All-Star center who is their energy guy. When he goes down so will their energy. It is also possible that they are in a rut right now. Every team goes through them.

well, guess we're just going to be on a 3 game losing streak after tomorrow, so it goes

 

the last two games have made me far more furious than what really are 2 meaningless games, but got damn

I'd rather win, but I don't think these 2 losses are a huge deal. Granted the play was bad, stupid turnovers, Boozer is pathetic at defense, and Rose hasn't looked all that dynamic lately, especially in the 4th. But they got 3 months to get healthy and get on track. I can't really get worked up about 2 games given how far in first in the Central we are.

Tough to play offense against a team lime Boston when the Celtics don't have to guard two of your five players

 

Thomas won't be in the line up (starting at least) when Noah comes back but if Bogans wants to win himself over with the crowd he should fake an injury of some kind.

I had been wondering what happened to the old dexter who made such a memorable splash in the Cubs game threads.

 

had to make a dramatic return

 

Seriously though, why even be a sports fan? It's not just the Bulls either. No one sees you in the Blackhawks thread when they go on a little run, and then as soon as they blow a game you show up and talk about how we're the worst team ever or whatever. Is this fun for you?
