The Official 2004 - 2005 Chicago Bulls Thread

I hate Lebron.

[ChiCubsFan]

I cannot believe he just hit that...NOOOOOOOOO. That's why you foul

[burnt out cubbie fan]

nice sig Jon. WTF!!!!!!! OMG!!! LeBron is just too good.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Shoulda fouled. Bah.

[Jon]

I cannot believe he just hit that...NOOOOOOOOO. That's why you foul

Gordon never really had a chance. And because he was so far out, you can't risk sending him to the line if he tries to get a shot off.

 

Boo Kobe.

[ChiCubsFan]

That free throw by Tyson looks big now, although they probably wouldn't have shot a three if Tyson missed it. Okay, let's win this in OT

[ChiCubsFan]

All Bulls in OT...what a finish by Tyson, and Z is out of the game. HUGE

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Way to start the OT and now Ilgauskas fouls out. Bulls up 94-88 with Chandler headed to the FT line for one.

[Jon]

Wow. The Bulls with a chance to extend the lead to 7 if Tyson hits the FT!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Or don't call it on Ilgauskas. Whatever, refs. :roll:

[ChiCubsFan]

How was that not on Z? Meh, up 7 with the ball now. We got this anyways.

 

EDIT: Now Z is out with his 7th foul

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Is that 6 or does Ilgauskas get some more fouls? :roll:

[Jon]

Their biggest lead of the game comes in OT. Go figure.

 

That's the dagger. 11 point game with 2:16 left.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

A double digit lead in OT!! :shock:

[ChiCubsFan]

GAME OVER. Big Defense and Big Offense in the OT. Great defense by Noccioni and that shot right there just iced it.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Dang, there goes the OT shutout.

[Jon]

102-90. The Bulls outscore the Cavs 14-2 in overtime to extend the winning streak to 8!

 

Now go T'Wolves.

[ctcf]

40

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Longest win streak since 1997-1998. Anyone know what the longest win streak the Bulls had that season?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

My goodness the Cavs are bad. The starting backcourt of Snow and Newble has to be one of the worst on a playoff caliber team ever. PLAY VAREJAO AND PAVLOVIC!

[UMFan83]

I know the 97-98 Bulls had a 13 game streak. Not sure if it was their longest though

Curry was not scheduled to return to Chicago until Friday, when he is expected to be examined by team doctors.

Nocioni was fantastic last night, somehow he got under Lebron James' skin and harrased him into a bad shooting night.

[Jon]

Oh, how I missed Hinrich's defense.

 

No Deng tonight, though.

 

Curry update: He'll stay in the hospital for at least several more days until the doctors set a plan to treat him. He's in high spirits, at least.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Curry underwent a battery of tests and results will be out later this weekend.

 

Bulls off to a 12-4 lead. :)
