Also, Kirk Hinrich is now the least valuable player in the NBA, having contributed a net of nearly -60 points (-2 wins!) to the Bulls. To get an idea of how detrimental that is, it's essentially Nikola Mirotic's value to the team this year.
The weirdness of Rose's line aside, the reason the Bulls won this game was Noah and Gasol. Noah looking like Noah again is huge for this team (to the point they can weather missing any SG production at all and a 33 shot, 11 TO game from their PG to beat an unbeatable team on the road).
Unfortunately the Bulls don't have a D-league team, so there's no way to do that to assure him minutes. He's just going to have to score 15 points in 90 seconds for Thibs to trust him on the floor.
Co-worker said it is the craziest thing he's seen. I laughed. Nothing will ever beat Reggie Miller getting those 9 points to beat the Knicks. That was so memorable you forgot it was 8 points.
Looks like Rob Neyer isn't going to miss Selig very much... http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/just-a-bit-outside/story/commissioner-bud-selig-interview-history-legacy-retirement-012315

The next page involves a bunch more posters making fun of Trout. Even more delicious. Hindsight is fun. From what I was reading, they were making fun of the broadcast for using the same adjectives to describe every draftee. They were making fun of the stuff Reynolds was saying about Trout, not of Trout. There were also several pages of posters hoping someone else would draft Brett Jackson to save the Cubs FO from themselves.
