Not much on the Bulls schedule this week:

 

Tuesday: Host the Kings, 7:30 CT, Comcast

Wednesday: At Toronto, 6 CT, WCIU

 

That's it until next Tuesday, when the Bulls host the Heat.

Former Bull and Indiana native Brad Miller entered the United Center wearing a Mark Prior jersey. "That's my team and always will be," Miller said.

The main difference there, of course, is that Prior would have no problem taking on Shaq.

The Bulls have come through this little tough run in their schedule okay.

 

 

Up 6 in the forth quarter at Toronto in a surprising shootout.

 

I'm not worried. As long as Jalen Rose gets the ball down the stretch, the Bulls are going to be just fine.

jalen rose = punk

Bulls Win! Bulls Win! Bulls Win!! Blue flag time up in Ontario!

121-115

Bulls > all

4-3 in "The month that will ruin the Bulls" with 4 games to play. Unfortunately, I think the Bulls will only go 2-2 in that span as they play 4 games in 5 nights after the break vs. Miami, at Cle, vs. Was, at Cha

Even at 2-2 that's still coming through a tough month pretty nicely.

Who do you think they'll beat besides Charlotte. That's the 3 best teams in the conference aside from Detroit, and playing all 3 in 4 days is a daunting task.

I really think that the Bulls can beat pretty much any team in the league on any given night.

That's true of any team outside of the 10 win trifecta. Beating Miami, Cleveland, and Washington on it's own isn't a huge deal, but all 3 in 4 nights? IMO it'll be tough for them to pull one out.

I don't really see how playing them on back to back to back nights will change anything. I think that they can take Cleveland and Washington. Miami will be though.

I dunno. I can't see them winning in Cleveland the night after Miami and a plane out to Cleveland. Washington is their best shot IMO. Of course I'm a Cavaliers fan, but you can't argue with the results. Miami is very very good, and the Cavs have the 3rd best home mark in the NBA. With Cleveland not having a game the night before, the odds are really stacked against the Bulls to not start 0-2.

It may be true for most teams, but it hasn't been true of THIS team in a long time.

 

...the odds are really stacked against the Bulls to not start 0-2.

 

The odds were pretty stacked against them being playoff contenders after an 0-9 start too.... :wink:

I hope the trainers tell Kirk not to play in the rookie/sophomore game. Why risk hurting his hand more? He could use the rest anyway.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

It's not like the Bulls haven't beaten the Cavs by 28 points earlier this season. :^o

The Cavs are average away from home. They beat the Bulls by 22 when they visited the Gund the first time. I actually could get tickets to this game, but I have baseball and probably homework.

Homework is NEVER an appropriate excuse to miss sports.

Looks like your hopes aren't going to come true. At least it was only a sprain and not anything more serious.

 

The guard, who's the heart and soul of the Bulls, has a sprained right ring finger and traveled to Denver late Thursday morning, where he plans to play limited minutes in Friday's Rookie Challenge game.
