  1. i saw that. he said he was "not even close" to running or jumping. and he went back in the game.
  2. man, baez has really been slumping
  3. tyler colvin sucks. i don't care what he did in 3 months in coors.
  4. wait, it's a problem that he might take the ball out of kobe's hands more? kobe needs the ball in his hands? to do what? jack up 23 shots a game at 43%? huge move for the lakers. they committed less than 30 million to him and ultimately they'll only end up giving away 2 late first rounders and 2 late second rounders.
  5. bummer. good thing it's not the elbow though.
  6. 3 strikeouts, 3 home runs
  7. stan bowman is start the lip service already on how the rest of this offseason will shape up. looks like another year of being a low seed and no real threat to the cup.
  8. when toews was on the ice, he was the best player on the blackhawks. happy?
  9. i love parise, but the more i think about it... the more i'd almost rather have suter. the defense was a massive problem last season, and they haven't really done anything to change it yet.
  10. ok, "they could have easily beat them". they blew the big lead in the second half of game 3 after noah left, then the horrible meltdown at the end of game 6. even game 4 they were in until the end, and game 2 was a ridiculous fluke shooting performance by philly. [expletive], if the cj watson play doesn't happen, it would have gone to a game 7 in chicago where the bulls would have been favored. the 76ers definitely deserved to win, but the point is that the bulls weren't really outplayed by much at all. boston should have handled that team a lot easier if they were to be considered a legit threat in the east.
  11. that would be a nightmare
  12. They key phrase is "better team." It was doubted by the most professional of opinions that the Bulls could even beat the heat in an ECF scenario. The Bulls success last year was hinging on Rip and Rose being able to stay healthy because they were hurt many times during the season. They weren't a clear favorite, so sitting here and blaming everything due to Rose being hurt is silly. Even if he wasn't hurt you're assuming he'll come in after said injuries and play at MVP caliber. As we saw, the Heat were a better team their second time around and the jury was out on the Bulls being better then the previous year. The Heat went to 7 games in the ECF against the freaking Celtics and nearly lost. Nobody knows what would've happened if the Bulls had been healthy. Neither you or "the most professional of opinions", whatever that means. Yes lets ignore Bosh's injury. The Heat took a major injury to a weak spot on their team and won the ECF despite the adversity. They didn't even use a true center. yea, and let's ignore avery bradley's injury. or ray allen and paul pierce playing hurt. they needed 7 games to beat a banged up celtics team that needed 7 games to beat philly (a team that the bulls almost beat without rose and noah)
  13. wow, what a day for atlanta.
  14. like i said before we were even rumored for him, i want parise bad. deal sharp if you have to.
  15. i'm still pretty excited about him. he's shown he can be dominant, and it's kind of expected that he might have endurance problems this season.
  16. the problem i have with it is that he doesn't even play all the time. how many plate appearances is he on pace for? hard to say a guy is an all-star when he doesn't even play against lefties, but whatever. the asg is meaningless.
  17. i'm with kujay. i'd be cool with a one year deal. nothing more than that, though. even if he isn't very good anymore, i think he would still be able to keep us in games better than crawford did. there were too many games last year where crawford didn't give them a real chance to win.
  18. meh. it always felt like it was between asik and gibson. gibson is more important.
  19. brett jackson is just brutal right now.
  20. i don't buy it. i think he'll have the surgery immediately after the olympics.
