  1. Because when you get a chance to pull a game within 4 points midway through the 3rd quarter, you just gotta go for 2. In fairness to Illinois' coaches, if I saw the kicking game I saw in the first half, I'd go for 2 every time also.
  2. After another botched extra point.
  3. It's weird, Illinois feels in complete control of this game, yet they're losing 21-9 because of a bad throw and the worst kicking game I've ever seen.
  4. I hope he puts up the same exact line as Clausen minus the pick and still watch the meatballs meatball. And a loss obviously. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk But that would be his lowest offensive output of the year.
  5. I generally dislike Michigan, but the Austin Hatch story is great. Good on them.
  6. Because statistics are still fun right now: Player A- 16.6 points on .434% from the field and .355% from 3, 10.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, .5 blocks, 1.8 TO, Usage 20.8%, PER 18.0, TS% .568, WS/48 .153, ORtg 114, DRtg 106. Player B- 16.0 points on .449% from the field and .408% from 3, 10.1 rebounds 2.2 assists, 1.5 blocks, 1.6 TO, Usage 18.2%, PER 18.1, TS% .618, WS/48 .202, ORtg 121, DRtg 101.
  7. Bulls front court tandem efficiency: Gasol-Noah: +3.6 (354 minutes) Gasol-Gibson: +10.0 (251 minutes) Gasol-Mirotic: +0.5 (179 minutes) Gibson-Mirotic: +11.4 (139 minutes) Noah-Gibson: -9.8 (129 minutes) Noah-Mirotic: +14.5 (119 minutes)
  8. The Knicks have now tied the Sixers for the worst record in the NBA.
  9. The Bulls have an entire team of above average offensive performers, save one rotation player. Kirk Hinrich, who averages 28 minutes a game. Hinrich has a total Value Added point total of -26.4 points on the year, meaning that if he played zero minutes, the Bulls would have been 26 points better. That puts him 436th out of a total of 442 players that have played in NBA games this year.
  10. The Bulls are now 7th in the league in offensive efficiency (behind Dallas, Toronto, LAC, Golden State, Cleveland and New Orleans), and 10th in defensive efficiency (behind Golden State, Houston, Portland, Washington, Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Atlanta, Memphis and Indiana).
  11. The Bulls scored 49 points in 28 possessions in the 4th quarter last night, for an offensive efficiency of 175, which is kind of insane. EDIT: Also, they took just 20 shots in the 4th (lots of FTs, where they were 43-47 (!) from the line)
  12. Wow indeed 2.5 years left and close to $34 million that they will eat for him not to play for Detroit What on earth. Josh Smith was 119th.
  13. There have been only 3 pitchers in MLB history (not currently active) to average over 10 K's per 9 innings over their entire career (and pitched over 1000 innings). Can you name them?
  14. Of the 120 players that have shot enough to qualify, Kobe Bryant is 117th in both shooting percentage and true shooting percentage.
  15. The Saints are now eliminated from playoff contention.
  16. Right, because it's the semantics that are the issue here. The mere fact that he responded in tow implies he took it as a challenge, but thank goodness Kyle is here to nitpick semantic flaws to get to the heart of the issues.
  17. That reminds me of the knee-jerk derision of anyone who dares to criticize a move the Cubs FO makes. Sip the kool-aid or get lost. I know people sometimes refer to Japan as being on a different planet, but you may be surprised to learn that everyone challenging your opinions isn't automatically on drugs or following group think, despite how constantly hypocritical you are on the subject.
  18. That basically sums up Derwood in a sentence.
  19. This would only mean good things for the rest of the NL. If the Dodgers are allowed to get out from under that deal so easily, the sky's the limit for them.
  20. And by "garbage", obviously gscool means "the most productive OF on the roster last year". Not to say his production can't be replaced, and nobody's really bemoaning the loss, but he was productive last year.
  21. They do that to differentiate it from Houville
