I wouldn't be mad at a Hunter sighting right now till the 4th
Derrick needs the legs for the push at the end
my WCIU channel keeps blacking out about every other minute
it is pissing me off badly.
it happened during the final minute of the jazz game too

if he missed, it would have been a really bad shot.
Sloppy fucking basketball

this lineup will lose the game
Vinny has no clue..
Noc – PF?? No rebounding
TT- Center – Too small
3 guards – no defense
To blame ANY shitty player on Gordon is dumb

The only possable explanation for your infatuation with Gordon
is that you are part of his posse and on his payroll. You are ridiculous.
As a basketball player gordon is a useless as tits on a a whore
But ...
I don’t understand that one at all, really.

Gooden had 0 FGs and Noc was getting completely destroyed, yet you pick Gordon as the scapegoat…nice.
Rose hits his first (of many) game winner today

Bulls are getting hammered on the offensive glass and in turnovers.
Sixers have the advantage 14-5 in offensive boards and have only 16 turnovers to the Bulls’ 21.
The Bulls’ eFG% advantage is the only reason this is as close as it is.

Tyrus looks good
Despite the TO tyrus looks good tonight. I really think he needs more run…he has energy and isnt making stupid plays. He IS EFFECTIVE when he plays within his limits. Its when he thinks that hes still a pg that he gets into problems.

At least tyrus
protects the rim. Although when they do let him set picks he never rolls…he loves to pop

that looked like a DWade foul call... he barely got touched.
there were some guys reaching for sure, but it looked like they wiffed on Rose. If he starts getting the Wade treatment… watch out league.

Also, can someone explain why Gooden is back out on the floor?
He’s been abysmal tonight. Put Joakim back in the game. He played well in his 12 minutes. Gooden has been terrible. Is Noah that out of shape that he can only play 12 minutes?

There was only one player in position to take that charge
It was Miller. Brand was slow to react to Thomas driving. It’s a moot point, because anytime he does that move and doesn’t score it looks ugly. I’d say he did more good than ugly today though.

It's not even close. Thabo >>>> Noce.
Thabo doesn’t think he’s a star. He actually defends. He’s not wasting possessions by chucking. He has better shot selection and he’s just better in every conceivable aspect.
by fundamentallysound on Dec 2, 2008 10:15 PM CST up reply actions
Seriously?
Have you seen any of the last 17games?
There’s a reason Sefo is like the 11th man off the bench. And that’s because he sucks more than 10 other guys. And Noce, well, he’s the 10th guy off the bench. So he sucks more than just 9 other guys.
Look at their numbers. Noc is getting entitlement minutes based on past performance.
He’s been absolutely horrid this whole season. For a rough assessment Thabo’s PER is 16 (and he plays good D). Noc’s PER is 9.5 or something and he plays abysmal D. It’s not even close.
by fundamentallysound on Dec 2, 2008 10:19 PM CST up reply actions
Thing is...
Ther’e s reason Sefo isn’t playing. It’s because he really really sucks, PER notwithstanding.
Im sure Harris and Bickerstaff took a look at Sefo’s PER and Noce’s PER and their actual game contributions and said “What the hell? Let’s go with the Argentinean who can make some plays instead of the Swiss who can’t shoot, can’t dribble and can’t pass.”
Oh, and Noce doesn’t think he’s a star either. He’s the one who said he didn’t like starting because it meant that the actual starters (Deng) were having bad seasons and that it was always a bad thing if he starts. Look it up.
But he can do all of those things ...
He can even defend too!

THABO'S PER IS 16, NOCE'S IS 9.5, therefor thabo rules and Noce sucks.
Mareese Spreight’s PER is 20.72.
Yao Ming is 20.65, Danny Granger is 20.10, Garnett is 19.38 (more than a point lower), Nash is 18.87 (2 points lower), Oden is 18.32, DRose is 17.81, Paul Pierce is 17.81 (3 points lower), David West is 17.32 (3.5 points lower), Al horford is 16.84 (4 points lower) and Carmelo Anthony is 16.74 (more than 4 points lower).
And we know Philly will never ever trade Spreights for any of those guys.
This PER argument really sucks.
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.

THABO'S PER IS 16.25.
So we should never trade him for…
Luis Scola (16.10)
Corey Maggete (16.09)
Rashard Lewis (15.99)
Udonis Haslem (15.9)
Rasheed Wallace (15.55)
Rudy Gay (15.26)
Michael Beasely (15.07)
Hedo Turkoglu (14.74)
Rip Hamilton (14.37)
Richard Jefferson (14.20)
You really say that Sefo is better than all these players?
Btw, Hughes’ PER is 14.29. That’s better than Jefferson, Barbosa, Outlaw, Iguodala, Tyson Chandler and Stojakovic. I still say Hughes sucks more than they do. but you, of course, say differently.
Good God people still argue PER like this?

The rebuttal arguments you made don't really have merit here.
PER is a broad statistic and it’s imperfect, but it establishes general trends. Nocioni has been barely above replacement level and Thabo has been around average (slightly better). There are a number of other statistics that show that Thabo is better but I just chose PER as a quick and dirty method of showing that. I thought it was well established around these parts that a 7 point PER differential is significant, whereas the PER differentials you cited were very slight or non-existent.
by fundamentallysound on Dec 3, 2008 12:27 AM CST up reply actions
That's also before accounting for the fact that Nocioni is terrible on D
and Thabo is a positive contributor on D. Nocioni is getting entitlement minutes. The only reason this could possibly be a positive is if it is in some sort of lame attempt to showcase him so we can dump him for expiring contracts (not likely if he keeps playing this shitty).

the ONE shot he had?

He didn't set up those shots
Someone took the ball, decided ball movement was for losers, and just jacked it up. That’s not on him, nor is it good Philly defense. It’s criminally bad Bulls offense, and it’s something that rears its head everytime Rose doesn’t run the show.

Rose wasn't stopped
His teammates played like they were clinically retarded in OT

Yah just cause Tyrus catches the ball open at 18 feet
he shoudnt shoot it, he should realize he’s Tyrus Thomas then throw the ball back to Rose and cut to the hole

Whatever, they better not lose to Milwaukee tomorrow
This is an easy stretch of schedule, the Bulls have a golden chance to get over .500 and PLAY LIKE A FREAKING TEAM. It’s like only 2 players go with the Rose plan every game, one night it’s Gooden and BG, the other it’s Noce and Tyrus. Why can’t everyone be on the same page as him?

Off topic but i'm curious what will happen when Hinrich comes back
the rotation’s gonna implode. Either hughes PT goes down and he becomes the new marbury or he spends more time at the 3 over what looks like deng

Dude, Marbury is in a leauge of his own.
Marbury is to the NBA as Tracy Jordan is to 30 Rock.

fair enough but he crying about PT when Hinrich was hurt
what happens when he’s back. Paxson needs to trade somebody soon

Hinrich won't be back until the end of january-ish (correct me if I am wrong)
He isn’t going to just be inserted into the lineup cold, especially with the way Gordon and Rose are playing together.

Your right
Hopefully Hughes is taken care of before Hinrich come back.

It has little to do with philly
Everything has to go right for us to win with this offense…its perfect for rose, but terrible for everyone else except kirk and noc…I really think we need to look at Eddie Jordan…He would be PERFECT (at least offensively)…Hopefully we go after him in the offseason…I wish we could hire Frank…maybe harris will get hurt and he will be fired…I think both Noah and Tyrus can be NBA starters (maybe not on the same team), but not in this system

yup here it is
ESPN with it’s PAYBACK segment

although they still showed rose crossing miller again
they still threw the “your gonna get highlights? i’m gonna dunk” humbug

thats fine
as long as he has the real power…but it can look like vdn is still in charge…I think tyrus and noah would really benefit…i wish vdn would do something stupid so we could fire him
by rosefromconcrete on Dec 2, 2008 10:42 PM CST up reply actions
Tyrus
This game showed that Tyrus can be effective….he’ll never be a superstar but there is no reason that he can’t average a double double every night. As long as he plays within his means and keeps it simple, he should be able to score 14 pts, 10 rebounds every game. I really hope Vinnie gives him at least 28-32 minutes a game now. Fuck Gooden and his 20 ft jumpshots, that is why he is a top 5 pick who is on his fourth team. Every 4th game, his jumpers are good, the rest of the time he is garbage and his D is beyond atrocious. Also does Noah have lung cancer? He was effective rebounding but how can a professional athlete’s conditioning be so bad? There are 40+ year old dudes at my local YMCA that can play for hours straight.
I still predict somewhere between 38-40 wins, possible 8th seed but probably not.
And please a real coach soon, let Del and Bernie take more control.
