  1. A link would be mucho appreciated.
  2. Basketball can be the most frustrating sport to watch because the opportunity to do something dumb happens so frequently. Unfortunately the Bulls take as many of those opportunities as they can.
  3. That was a Bears-worthy implosion by Cleveland there. Quinn looks the part, though. His decisoin making was very good and he's got a lightning quick release--mechanics look solid too. He left some yards on the field with some errant throws but he was generally very accurate. Too bad he has a bunch of losers dropping balls or getting stripped.
  4. 83 points to Cleveland after 3 quarters? Who remembers when this was one of the elite defensive teams in the league? No, I'm not talking about the Jordan, Pippen, Worm, and Harper defensive teams...I'm talking about the good defensive teams that had largely the same personnel as this one.
  5. STOP PLAYING THE 3 GUARD LINE UP VINNY. God. We have neither the size in the backcourt or the rebounders/shot blockers in the front court to fool around with that.
  6. Have the Bulls run a set in the half court that's resulted in a good look? This over dribbling crap is infuriating.
  7. With as many contested jumpshots this team is forced to take in the half court we've got to find a way to get more up tempo.
  8. I like how Pax's strategy of drafting guys with big time college experience hasn't stopped them from making wretched errors in basic execution.
  9. I can't get over how bad of finishers Drew Gooden and Noah are.
  10. Deng is nothing more than a statue in this offense. What happened to running him off screens and getting his mindrange game pumping? He's not going to create off the dribble but he can be deadly when he's used correctly. All of our big men are really bad finishers around the basket. I'm tired of seeing Gooden flail around like Tony Parker around the rim.
  11. This team is really, really bad. We'll compete against awful teams but I see no chance for many victories against quality opponents. Terrible ball movement, massive amounts of over dribbling, and boneheaded plays galore. We don't stroke it well enough or defend anywhere consistently enough to make up for the massive flaws on this team.
  12. 3 critical missed free throws down the stretch by Noc and Gordon. Thanks guys.
  13. I think someone in the BUlls organization slept with Matt Goukas' wife or something. He doesn't really like us at all.
  14. Wow, appallingly dumb shot by Gordon.
  15. I'll make my first positive statement of the night and say that Kirk has done an awesome job defensively down the stretch. This would seriously be a great steal of a win on the road.
  16. The Magic should seriously be ashamed that this game is even close.
  17. Does Del Negro do any actual coaching once the game starts? This team is awful at defending the pick and roll and running one for themselves--which is great because we have no interior scoring or true big men to protect the rim!
  18. The next time Gooden sets an effective screen will be the first time. I can't believe this is the same team that was arguably the best in the East two years ago. Have they all suffered serious and repeated head injuries since then? They play such STUPID basketball. What the hell was Nocioni doing waving his hand for a contested 22 foot two-pointer on that secondary break?
  19. Kirk Hinrich, given his overall skill set, has a lot of nerve being this poor of a jump shooter. And what the hell happened to Lu's jumper? It's so damn flat!
  20. Nice to see Luol Deng shut down by the defensive maestro Hedo Turkoglu :roll:
  21. Tyrus Thomas is by far the dumbest basketball player I've ever seen. Wow. He is years away from being mediocre on offense. VDN's rotations suck. Gooden is a space cadet. God, this team plays truly wretched ball for huge chunks of the game. The defense has fallen WAY off too. Ugh. This is going to be a long rebuilding project.
  22. What's Brown's status?
  23. The Hank White moniker alone is worth a one year deal at 1-1.5 million.
  24. I had the Titans/Pack game and I swear Bironas' kick was in the air at the same time as Orlovsky's final pass.
