I'm not that upset, two starters out, a third one pretty banged up and yet they still could have won the series. Turner, Igoudala, et al may not realize it but, I think Dougie knows they got every break imaginable and there's a bully waiting for them at the end of the hall.

Just saw the replay of Jersey' last goal - might be the cheapest goal since, I can't remember his name, Oilers defense man shot it into his own goal.

Screw it whatever happens, happens, I'm finishing the last of my growler of Kolsch from the http://theredwoodlodge.com/ and listening to Grand Funk - Were An American Band, might watch more hockey than BB but, here's to all Bulls Fans - good Kolsch!

Agreed. I don't see the point in trying to rush him back tonight. The point would be that if they lose tonight, he has all offseason to heal the sprain. I'm not suggesting playing him for 40 minutes, but if there are times where he can make an impact on the offensive or defensive end, and he's not blocking anyone else from playing, I think you suit him up if he says he can go. Or he re-injures himself because he's playing when he's still injured, rather than trying to gut out a win without him then having him actually contribute the rest of the way. There's no need to bring him back tonight, with a solid effort and something from Deng and Hamilton there's no question they'll win tonight. If it comes to game 6, I'd consider playing Noah but, upon re-injury we're looking at no Deng, Rose and Noah to start next season.

I can't stand Phoenix because they're about as exciting as watching grass grow, their whole game is predicated on opponents making mistakes, they cannot create offensively. It's like the Bears counting on the defense to score (don't think that's going be required this year though), a cheap way to play.
-
It's gotta to be eating at Thibs that his team has mailed it in and along way making a crappy team look good. Not getting back on defense, losing jump balls to guy who can't jump, Brand, not be able to defend Turner who does the same thing every time he has the ball that sh*tty little spin move, on and on.
-
Comical the big stiff, Hawes, talking like they're higher seed and are going win Tuesday. Face it big stiff you were only a factor because Noah went down. Speaking of useless players how useless has RIP been? Anything from that POS and the Bulls probably take one if not the last two games.

I'm Cubs fan - expect the worse, if they didn't have bad luck they wouldn't have any at all, I'll hope for the best.

What's worse is MVP Derrick Rose is gone for good, when he comes back he'll be just another good point guard. Maybe we'll get glimpses of a great player but, I suspect they'll few and far between. Nobody knows this yet. It's just pessimism for the sake of pessimism. Isn't there ample evidence of players coming back from a torn ACL having to develop a different game? I don't know that it's happened enough to elite athletes to have ample evidence. Ample may have been the right word but, there is evidence of players having to change their games as a result of such injury.

That was the first injury, I think. I've had enough of this, how about Turner, Holiday and Igoudala' ankles blow up to even it out. Mod edit: Using asterisks to get around the swear filter is not allowed.
-
What's frustrating is the Sixers winning and then talking as if its some sort of accomplishment, real effort there beating a hobbled team. I'd say their biggest accomplishment is dumb luck.
-
Also they didn't forget to rebound, play defense or lose their front court depth when Rose went down. Moreover, was a 65% Rose that much better than a 100% CJ Watson/JLIII?
-
What's really interesting is the Bears may have playmakers at WR, seems like it's been forever since they've had any big play WR's. Not only that but, tall, physical WR's it'll be great for the opposition to have worry about handling the Bears' big WR's in the red zone for a change.
-
Most media (most especially B & B - they've collective hard-ons for the Heat) outlets keep blabbing about the Bulls losing to the Heat even with a completely healthy Rose, although we won't see it I'm not so certain it would have been a slam dunk for the Heat. Rip's starting to finally come around, a key for the Heat last season was ignoring everyone else save for Rose, Rip would have blown up that tactic. Imagine if James went down, would the Heat even get past the Knicks?

4/29 Cubs (Garza) @ Phillies (Kendrick) 12:35 WGN

I was hoping Marmol would get some more save chances and while doing so look good enough to have some trade value. However, who's going to trade for a closer who cannot consistently throw strikes? -
Turning on the way back machine I remember Bill Buckner hobbling around but, I think he suffered torn ligaments in both knees.
-
I was thinking about Rose' future as well, once surgery is done, does it fully heal?
-
That's crazy talk right there. Their chances went from 0% to maybe like 8%. Well still get past the Sixers but their chances have definitely improved. Maybe so, just trying to put a positive spin on the matter, maybe too positive.
-
One would think Philadelphia chances increased with the Rose injury, I believe they've decreased. The Sixers didn't suddenly get taller and more physical than the Bulls. Nor did the Bulls get shorter and less physical, if anything, they're going to play with a greater sense of desperation and harder most especially on defense.
-
I'm wondering if, after he recovers, we'll see pre-injury Rose again, is he going to be forced to change his game?
-
Seconded I'm sick of this f**king sh*t, cruel or not, I'd like to see Miami get f**ked over a barrel in a similar manner.
-
Wow this pick has Angelo written all over it, at least he doesn't have an injury history?
-
What evidence is there that he's good enough to play in Traffic?
