The Official 2004 - 2005 Chicago Bulls Thread

[ctcf]

Antawn Jamison hit 7-of-17 shots and finished with 18 points and eight boards in tonight's loss to the Bulls.

The news is that he went down with an apparent knee injury in the final seconds, so check back tomorrow on his status. Apr. 27 - 11:25 pm et

The countdown to tipoff is on. Gordon was held out of practice yesterday because of flu-like symptoms, but he's expected to play.

[snoodmonger]

I don't know if we'll win the game, but I'm expecting a big game from Tyson today.

I bet Gordon will drop 38...

[Jon]

Ouch. Looks like Chandler dislocated a finger. They popped something back in place on the bench and he's headed back to the lockerroom.

 

Some not-so-great shooting so far and too many offensive boards given up (along with the turnovers).

[Jon]

It was dislocated but they taped up his fingers and he's back in there.

 

How on earth was that not out of bounds on Washington, let alone a foul on Kirk?

[Banedon]

Hinirch on the bench with 2 fouls early again...he's gotta watch that..

[Jon]

29-20 Wizards after the Bulls continue to give up the easy offensive put-backs but Gordon responds with a 3.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Bulls are lucky to be as close as they are. Awful defense, too many easy buckets for Washington and no boxing out. Ugh.

 

And that second foul on Kirk? Total BS. Should have been out-of-bounds, Bulls ball. But why not just call a foul on Kirk instead? :x

[DivineBovine]

Washington is hitting everything. The defense isn't much worse, Washington is just hitting. Just like the Bulls were in the first 2 games.

[DivineBovine]

I stand corrected. Bad defense!

[Jon]

Is that four dunks on offensive rebounds for Washington so far? There seem to be very few red jerseys under the glass once that shot goes up.

[Banedon]

Washington is scoring at will.

[Jon]

And now they're having problems from the FT line.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Nice comeback to cut the deficit to two, but they really need to make their FTs. I don't have a problem with Chandler making 1 of 2, but I do have a problem when Gordon and Hinrich are going 1 for 2 at the line.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Tie game!

[Careless]

You know the refs are scary-bad when the announcers don't have a clue what the refs are calling when they blow the whistle. "And he steps out of bounds. I mean he traveled. Oh, they're calling a foul." ](*,)

Good job coming back again.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

57-55 Wizards at the half. The last 30 seconds were ugly - three offensive fouls.

 

I agree, Careless.

 

Hopefully the Bulls can limit Hughes a bit in the second half and get the defensive boards in the second half.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Larry Hughes is dirty.

(Ok, not really.)

 

Should be a foul though.

Ouch...Nocioni goes down with a shot to the groin...

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Bad third quarter. :x

[Jon]

Bad third quarter. :x

That's one way to put it. They've looked downright terrible.

[illiniguy]

Bad third quarter. :x

That's one way to put it. They've looked downright terrible.

That tends to happen when Pargo is the guy shooting all of your shots. :roll:

[Careless]

Can anyone tell me where that last Gordon foul came from? I mean, I don't even know who they thought he hit

[illiniguy]

I really hate the wizards. first off they screwed over mj. then they run their mouths about hinrich and noc. thirdly they can't beat us out when we are missing two of our starters.
