Chicago Bulls Playoff Thread

Rose gimped to the locker room holding his lower back.

[Careless]

i'll take that for a half. Aside from Rose being hurt :banghead:

[SouthSideRyan]

Due to injury, Thibs will limit Rose to only 22 minutes in the 2nd half.

[Ryne Ween]

Hopefully rose is just pulling a Celtic.

[Careless]

When Brewer makes that shot, just end the game. You're not beating the Bulls on a night where Brewer makes that shot.

[Careless]

Remember all the talk about Boozer and Noah not playing well together? Much better in the past week or so

[SpongeWorthy]

Any update on Rose?

Back spasms, will not return tonight

It's not like New Jerseyans don't know NYers have contempt for them, but putting "New York" on their jerseys this year is pretty damned douchey.

 

Love Noah the point guard. When it works.

At least they actually will be a New York team next year, the Jets and Giants are worse.

 

Edit- and are these the normal jerseys or throwbacks?

[Careless]

Apparently it's a throwback jersey. Still a jerk thing to do when they're moving next year.

[Careless]

Wow, heroic foul effort to stop Asik from scoring there and he still made the basket.

 

How is Asik's English, anyway?

Cant believe Dwight Howard is trying to force a trade to this garbage ass Nets team. SMH.

Yeah cause putting him with Deron Williams will keep them garbage.

[Careless]

the Nets really believe in making their fouls count. They're not even being dirty, they're just wrapping people up so they can't move their arms.

Still wont be contenders. Him and Rose would be so much better

Maybe dwight prefers playing with deron?

[Theo]

I guess. He obviously doesnt prefer winning.

[illiniguy]

I guess. He obviously doesnt prefer winning.

Right because before this year deron hasn't been a winner. He got just as far as rose has. And he did it in a tough western conference.

[Theo]

Derrick is clearly better than Williams at this point.

[illiniguy]

Derrick is clearly better than Williams at this point.

Yes he's better, but not by as much as bulls fans would like to think.

[Derwood]

Derrick is clearly better than Williams at this point.

 

If you think Howard is picking a team based on the players, you're really naive

[SpongeWorthy]

Well it's not just about Rose. Although Rose is the vastly superior piece to build a team around.

 

The overall talent would be far better in Chicago. And the coaching. And pretty much anything to do with winning.

Doesn't NJ have a ton of money to spend?

[UMFan83]

Still wont be contenders.

 

 

No but they would have gotten the hard part done. Role players will come flocking to NYC's newest team to play with D12 and Deron. I don't think their crazy Russian owner cares if he has to go way over the luxury tax to win unless of course he becomes the Russian president and drops the Nyets like a bad habit.

 

The Nets are really interesting right now. Can you imagine Deron bolting right before their big triumphant move to Brooklyn.

 

"Hey Brooklyn, ignore your longstanding ties with the Knicks and come watch Brook Lopez and the Nets lose 60 games!"
