After seeing this most recent stretch of Bulls games I am not convinced that they have a shot to win the title. Going into the season I thought they could at best get to the Eastern Conference Championship, but I think this team is better than that now. Getting excited.

Not supposed to be "now"?

 

Yes. Typo there.

I'm starting to believe but I still have my doubts about the Bulls being legit for this season when everyone is playing full throttle on every possession in the playoffs. We'll know if we have a solution when smart defensive teams start trapping Rose outside the 3 point line in the half court sets.

 

I just hope there isn't a lockout so the Bulls can keep the momentum going by getting a real 2 guard in the offseason.

I recall J.R Smith being a free agent this offseason and OJ Mayo is still on the block. Anyone else on the free agent market in the way of 2 guards?

Why would we want a girl on our team?

lol cowherd

 

He probably resisted twitter because it's hard to lecture people on how to live your life like a high powered corporate executive and other high achiever types in 140 characters

Cowherd pretty much says dumb [expletive] to piss people off so they listen to his show. He's not the first person to do it and it doesn't really bother me that much.

He basically said the same [expletive] about Aaron Rodgers this past season as well. Just par for the course for that [expletive].

 

Well he was telling the truth with Aaron Rodgers though.

I hate the whole "hey you can't deny people listen to the show!" argument.

 

Yeah. So?

 

So there are a lot of people who can't resist listening to ranting on the radio. Big deal.

Noah might be out tonight with flu-like symptoms.

 

Dammit Noah, why did you go out partying the night before a game.

 

We still probably beat Washington without Noah and Boozer, but the margin for error is lessened.

What could possibly be your argument against Rose as MVP OTHER than PER?

 

John Hollinger (2:10 PM)

 

You mean, besides the fact we’re giving it to the key offensive player on the league’s 15th-best offense, when the story of the team’s surprise season has been their top-rated defense, and he’s been the worst defender on the team in terms of plus-minus … for the second time in three years? Must just be my irrational hater bias at work again.

Bryce Drew is probably better than Rose.

That's a terrible argument, the bulls are a defensive team so they aren't going to be one of the best offenses in the league when they play the way they do. Put Rose on the Warriors or Knicks and he might put up 5 more points a game. John Hollinger is the Westboro Baptist Church of basketball analysts.
