NOah Nice block!

General manager needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow,next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn't happen.

Bulls need to start every posession with Rose setting up the play

Ugh, not a good shot by Gray

Wow this is going downhill

Thaddeus Young looking like an All-Star while we turn the ball over and take stupid shots.

by illini23 on Nov 30, 2008 4:26 PM CST   0 recs

And the answer to our defecit is....

Larry Hughes!!!!

We have two

of the top 5 most overpaid players in the NBA. Luol Deng and Larry Hughes.

by illini23 on Nov 30, 2008 4:27 PM CST   0 recs

We don't have to lose this team.

But I’m afraid that the bulls will make sixers look like conteneder.
And any noname like Young will have a career high.:(

Young's a stud dude.

Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.

I don't care.

Bulls tend to give career high games to anyone.

Derrick Rose

needs to realize that his team is horrible. Hopefully he starts taking more shots b/c our guys just can’t score, PERIOD.

by kwintz on Nov 30, 2008 4:30 PM CST   0 recs

They have as many offensive boards as the Bulls have total

Trotting out a frontcourt of Gray and Gooden is asking to get destroyed.

Nice steal by Tyrus

And-1 opportunity for BG

"It never is, because I'm the Shogun. And before you get to the Shogun, you gotta go through a lot of ninjas."

by Ozzie Montana on Nov 30, 2008 4:34 PM CST   0 recs

haha yeah really

Ty drops an easy pass from Rose in transition for a dunk and then he comes back down on the defensive end and blows a screen and roll, allowing the sixers to drain a wide open three.

This team frustrates the hell out of me. I just got done watching the Portland game, and they play great basketball. They hustle on D and their offense is FLUID. FLUID, Vinny, FLUID. God.

by kwintz on Nov 30, 2008 4:39 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

Nocioni guarding Iguodola.....

Easy layup and draws a foul.

But hey, Nocioni is “All First Team Stir the Pot”

AGAIN, other than Gooden we get NOTHING upfront!!!

Until our frontcourt decides to compete on a nightly basis, we will continue to get drummed into the ground.

Also, looks like there is yet ANOTHER SF I’d rather have than Deng…and his name is Thaddeus Young (at least to this point anyway).

This is such awful basketball, I can't believe how bad we look.

It’s not so much the talent, cause we have talented players, but it just looks like nobody knows what the hell they’re doing out there.

Nocioni passes up on a spot up three and a drive to the lane, passes the ball, and gets it back for a high percentage defended fade-away 20 footer.

by Hoopster on Nov 30, 2008 4:48 PM CST   0 recs

Ugh

No spacing, no movement, NOTHING. It’s gotten to the point where I’m actually happy when Drew Gooden has the ball. This roster is FUCKED.

It’s not even bad looks, they just don’t go in.

He’s really done well during this road trip offensively.

He at least earns his PF spot

Outside of BG and Rose, he’s the only other Bull who at least looks halfway decent.

Do they sign Gordon or Gooden?

if Gooden can be a consistent inside player....

i can see da bulls easily winnin 45 games

CHICAGO MANE!!!!

by YEP on Nov 30, 2008 5:03 PM CST   0 recs

Gooden isn't an inside player though

his good games come when he is shooting mid to long range jumpers.

by Bushka on Nov 30, 2008 5:08 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

He had 18 pts in the paint today

20 pts 12 rebs. I’d say it was a pretty good game for him even though he barely shot any mid to long range jumpers.

What's also impressive about that Rose drive

Is that Miller is giving Rose the jumper, sagging back, but still can’t guard him off he dribble

And Rose has shown a tendency to pick up his play in the 2nd half

If Miller keeps sagging, he’ll have that shot all day.

Derrick Rose is not human...

Makes up 15 feet on Miller and throws his shit (that block was Lebron-esque) and then decides he’s just going to sit his ass on the ground with a KILLER crossover. My dear God. That crossover was Iverson-esque. Jesus Christ. No words. No words.

is absolutely PATHETIC. The guy can’t finish around the basket OR shoot jumps shots. He’s getting abused by Young too…Translation: he is worthless. I can’t believe we overpaid for this guy.

last time I checked $80 mill over 6 years is pretty close to superstar money.

by illini23 on Nov 30, 2008 5:24 PM CST to parent up   0 recs

Um, no it's not

It’s 72 over 6, less than what Iguodola makes, on par with with what Okafor and Danny Granger make.

72 over 6

with incentives as i understand it.

Lot of good but not great players weighing in right around here. As mentioned its less than iggy, slightly less than bogut,etc etc.

The superstars are mostly 15-20 mill per.

Guys like boozer and co who are going to be up to sign new deals will certainly be in that range not in dengs 12 mill area.
