Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


CC Sportsnet Reflections

In watching CCSN a half hour after the craziness of today's win being in the books, I find myself a little giddish to realize that we are still playing in the playoffs and that I can use that thought to help carry me through at least a couple more days.

DA Bulls shooting 49% from the field along with some crushing defense, was what we had expected from our beloved all along...

Well...okay...maybe only after the man-crushing-snuffing of the flameless Heat.

But the bottom line is that DA Bulls have shown us (once again) that they ARE indeed capable of playing with the elite in the NBA - and I don't mean the Detwah Pissed-ons.
Although scary at times, they are riddled with an over-bearing, overly smug coach in Flipped-out Saunders who has never won anything, and a crew of overly-confident, thuggish players that remind me - if only a bit - of the old "bad boys" team that MJ sent home embarrassed in the end.
But I say only a bit because they don't even deserve THAT much credit.

They showed today that they do indeed have their weeknesses too...and reminded us why we were able to beat them 3 out of 4 games during the season. They are simply posers...and have showed the level at which they are capable of playing.
And DA Bulls can overcome that level by playing solid defense (which they have done) and shooting 45-50% (which they had not done in this series until today).

The big question we Bulls faithful will be pondering the next couple days is:
Can they now STAY on the horse that they have climbed back onto and ride off into some serious history?

One down - three to go -
One game at a time.
