Truly amazing, haha :lol:

 

Did the Knicks blow it or what??? I saw your post and went and checked the score and the bulls were up by 3 with like 20 seconds left so I was pretty confused.

Well, yeah, they blew it. When I posted, it was probably halfway through the 3rd quarter. Curry was dominating, they had a 15 point lead, Marbury/Francis/Rose/Q were raining threes.....

 

I turned it off.

 

Then you posted "Bulls win." I was like, waaaaaa?

 

Sure enough, Knickers blew 15 point lead at home! :D

You must've been watching a small sample of the game if Curry was dominating.

I laugh when people still wish Curry was still on this team. You know what Curry would make this team? A seventh seed and an easy out in the playoffs, also crippling for the future with an awful contract.

 

I love that deal Pax made, even if it kinda hurt us this season.

I read something that a few weeks ago, in the limited time Sweetney played, he had more assists in one week than Eddy Curry did in the entire season. That is pretty unbelievable..it also shows that once Curry gets his hands on the ball, he will attempt to take it to the basket and not even think about passing. Of course his 4 rebounds a game don't help much either..pretty much, the guy is a waste for a 6'11 body.

 

I didn't think too much of the trade at the time, but boy am I glad we pulled that deal now. It's great to see all 3 of the ex-Bulls (none who I never cared for) and 2 of my favorite ballhogs in Steve Francis and Stephon Marbury all on the same team. Isaiah Thomas put together the biggest joke of a team I have ever seen in my life.

Those two picks are going to be potentially priceless.

We'd better win tonight. Bulls need a win, and I'm sick of losing to LeBron.

 

7:30 ET tip time on ESPN tonight.

It's hilarious to see that Jamal Crawford and Jalen Rose on the Knicks along with Stephon and Francis. It's too bad for them that the game is only played with 1 ball.

 

Curry is such an enigma. In terms of low post skills, he's got uncanny talent. In terms of his rebounding and defense, it's not like he is unathletic. But it's looking like he may never live up to his hype. I was also unsure about the trade at the time. Good thing I wasn't GM.

 

Pax has done a great job. The Bulls seem to be sitting pretty now with the picks and all that cap room.

Hmmm...

 

I was watching in the beginning/middle of the 3rd quarter, and Curry was indeed dominating. The Knicks as a whole were during that time. So I posted it. I'm sure it was a small piece of the game. I stopped watching when the Bulls got down by 15.

 

What's the big deal, if I may ask? Curry is certainly capable of playing well. Hasn't shown it this year---maybe his heart really is a serious problem.

If you're going to foul on a fast break, Ben, at least make up your mind on what you're going to do. Don't just give a half-hearted push and allow him to make an easy shot like that.

Final score sounds a lot uglier than most of the game was, 91-72. That was a ridiculous shot by LeBron at the end of the game. Bulls killed themselves on the FT line.

i hate Gund Arena, or whatever the heck you want to call it now. I don't think the Bulls have won there in the LeBron era.

 

still 3 games out of the 8th spot. We have to win on Tuesday.

What makes you think it's a big deal? Curry didn't dominate in the first half and he barely played in the fourth quarter -- hence my comment. Also, in general, Curry is not a dominating players. He has excellent hands and scores very efficiently close to the basket, but he doesn't do anything else very well.

I counted at least 3 shots made by LeBron with the shot clock under 4 that had no business going in, counting that one.

 

Terrible game by the Bulls. Have I mentioned I'm sick of losing to Cleveland?

 

The Bulls need to steal one back that they shouldn't get to make up for dropping both the Cavs games.

Almost. The Bulls won LeBron's first contest there between the two, and the Cavs have won the last 5.

When LeBron is hot he can make the shot in literally any situation, with anyone defending him.

we had to win today and we did.

 

95-87 final over the Nets. Nocioni was great tonight.

Those two dunks, particularly the and-one, were fantastic. :D
