2010-2011 Chicago Bulls Thread

[SpongeWorthy]

I want to see the Bulls bottom 7 play a full season against the bottom 7 of the rest of the league. What would their record be?

 

20-30 wins. They're good but they benefit from being able to go balls out defensively/energy wise with the short stretches they are in.

 

Tommy T is a tactical beast, no doubt, though.

You think they're one of the worst 10 benches in the league?

 

Oh I thought you meant if they had to go up against other starting units as a starting unit. Yeah, they're the best bench in the league.

I love Stacey but the "friend request from myface.com" bit is a misfire.

An uncalled (and very impressive) Rose goal tend is shown 3 times from different angles as the defensive play of the game

[UMFan83]

Talk about hot and cold.....this is Toronto's second half:

 

-Start the 3rd quarter by making 14 of their first 17 shots.

-Then miss 10 in a row to end the 3rd and start the 4th.

-Then make 11 of their next 13 shots.

 

Overall 25-40 shooting in the 2nd half (63%)

Thibs is going to flip out for this defensive performance.

1 seed is close to locked up at this point

lol rose, quite the game

What's the math regarding that after this game?

i don't know exactly, but i know we clinch a higher seed than miami by going 3-3, and a higher seed than boston by going 4-2 (unless we beat boston). that's assuming those teams win all their remaining games

[UMFan83]

Now only 1 game behind SA too, and if we beat Phoenix in our next game, we will likely have the tiebreaker.

Basically, beat Boston and it's over without a complete meltdown

Yup, if we beat Boston and go 0-5 in our other games, the Heat and Celtics would have to go 5-1 in their other games to finish ahead of the Bulls (The Celtics would win the tiebreaker over Bulls in that scenario by virtue of a better conference record).

With Rose's blocks tonight, he now has more blocks on the year than LeBron James.

Ibaka just one-upped this by erasing a potential blake griffin poster

johnhollinger: Rose Army blowing up my inbox. Didn't see it; Bulls-Raps not on my A list. Will likely move into top 10 PER in tomorrow, possibly up to 7.

 

:shock:

How the hell did he do that?

48 to 46 for those who were curious.

:shock:

Yep, passed Westbrook, Gasol, Nowitzki and Durant in PER last night to jump to 7th. 6th is Kobe, 5th is CP3. He won't get into the top 3 (James, Howard, Wade), but 4th is feasible if he doesn't have any clunkers in the last 6.

[bukie]

On the down side, that "defensive" performance last night bumped the Bulls to second in defensive efficiency behind Boston.
