  1. why can't this team get by miami? they're better than miami.
  2. the quotes make it sound like dwight is saying "i still don't want to be in chicago long-term, but i'll play with them through the rest of this season just to get out of orlando immediately". i don't think the quotes mean much
  3. noah finishes 3 assists short of a triple double
  4. so happy that noah is awesome again
  5. dwight is such a dick. how can you publicly critisize your teammates' effort when you're demanding a trade? are you surprised that they aren't fully engaged with the team when you're still their leader?
  6. http://d3j5vwomefv46c.cloudfront.net/photos/full/503823298.gif?Expires=1327651041&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIYVGSUJFNRFZBBTA&Signature=NHitPNCUAxVEJO2RIlKK50QV5gLF4rbpxxcsVS3~tc8xPmQHCH-Y3R5dpP34j-dgzijFvjmedxoBWglvhreVQHPTNldYLwHSbihrwoDEuiIMB49Qmt0SpQ7u5uVtJ1plbu5X9rZ~ce0mWAbI4f4V7yhMB0yJETeXKgI~b1IPo-Y_
  7. it's not really a rivalry. the pacers are just the annoying team that plays us tough and then think they're on our level because of it.
  8. .352 since thibodeau got here and he started shooting more than one a game, he's at .345 if the guy was wide open and rose has nothing at the rim, i'd be okay with that shot from anybody who is a decent three point shooter. he was WIDE OPEN
  9. How much of that .345 were shots from 7 years ago which was likely the last time he regularly played regular minutes and took shots that mattered? I'm not necessarily against him taking that shot, Rose was super passive the entire 2nd half so since he insisted on passing I'd like it to be the wide open guy, but I've seen people flaunt this .345 as if he was a 3 point specialist or something. If he could be counted on to hit 3's 35% of the time, he would get more playing time. shot .365 in the 5 years previous to this one. shot .368 in his 5 years with boston. he's a decent three point shooter (definitely as good as deng) and he was wide open.
  10. it's a high percentage 3
  11. scalabrine is .345 from 3 for his career, and he was wide open. rose drove and had nothing. that was a fine shot. deng is .328 for his career. would we have been mad if he took a wide open 3 for the win?
  12. well we weren't going to play crappy teams at home forever
  13. Maybe you didn't follow the Cubs as closely in the early part of the decade. 2003 was the year that the was supposed to be the beginning of dominance for a decade. The 2008 team was the end of any relevance. but in terms of which team was better, it's not even close. the 2008 team was completely stacked. That 2008 team was not stacked by any stretch of the imagination. They didn't have any holes, but they were basically just good everywhere instead of having any real greatness. 2003 had a HOF RF and what should have been 2 HOF starting pitchers at the beginning of so your argument is based on 3 players? the 2008 team scored 131 more runs than the 03 team and allowed 12 fewer. the 2008 cubs had a great rotation, an amazing offense that had consistent OBP guys from top to bottom, and then had 2 shutdown strikeout guys at the end of the bullpen. they had the most runs scored in the league, and the second fewest given up. they also had the best record. how is that not stacked?
  14. yea, what cubcoltpacer said
  15. yea guys paterno was never told about a rape. he was just told that some guy was in a shower with a little kid and there were sex noises. give the guy a break.
  16. shut up erik
  17. the 2004 team was not better on paper than the 2008 team. that is a myth.

  19. im shocked that the one person who attended penn state in this thread is defending him
  20. braun never claimed he has herpes. or if he did, we don't know about it.
  21. i bet he still gets over 150 million
  22. it's so weird to have such long-term optimism with the cubs. even in past years when they were good, it kind of felt like it wouldn't last. the closest was after we got maddux/lee/hawkins/walker etc during the 04 offseason, but even then it kind of felt like we missed our shot in 03.
  23. melo is killing the knicks
  24. detroit is really [expletive] annoying. 6 of their last 8 games have gone to OT and they've won all 6. their last 3 games have gone to shootouts and they won all 3. so far in OT/SO games they're 8-1.
