Chicago Bulls at Milwaukee Bucks, Dec 3, 2008 7:00 PM CST
note on the gamethreads: I'd rather not sift through these and see people being jerkish.
While it's an open thread and therefore some 'rules' don't apply (like going off topic), the usual guidelines about trolling and inappropriate still do apply. So do me a favor and flag those comments that stand out as deserving so. This way I'll see them when my assistant brings me the flag reports each morning.

There’s barely anyone there. It’s frightening how many half-empty arenas there have been in the league so far this season.

True, Noah has some serious conditioning issues
I just personally feel that Tyrus hasn’t earned it back yet, but who is to say what the real motivations behind these lineups are. It’s still early for a set rotation to be in effect.

Man, BG is playing a terrible game so far.
I was yelling at my computer screen for him to give the ball up to Rose to close the half, but he did his usual iso-thing where he dribbled out the clock and then forced an ugly contested runner in traffic. Then Aaron Gray got the ball and failed at being able to simply drop the ball into the hoop. Honestly Aaron, you’re 7’0" just dunk the fucking ball, asshat.

by Juiceboxjerry on Dec 3, 2008 8:09 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
it's not his fault Vinny plays him so many minutes. He stinks. When he plays a lot of minutes, Bulls lose, period.
Also, he’s getting minutes that should be TT’s. (Tyrus is playing nicely tonight and did last night, makes no sense that he only got 7 minutes in the first half). I’m sure Vinny thought it was somehow a good idea to put Gray in there to match up with Bogut cause they’re both big and white. Earth to Vinny: Aaron Gray stinks and Andrew Bogut is good, play your best players. Jeesh.

agreed, Ben is having one of those "off nights"
that shooters have. He compounded it at the end of the half by selfishly going iso rather than getting the ball into Derrick’s hands. Hughes is outplaying him tonight and it’s not close. That said, Hughes is generally garbage and it’s always better to have BG out there than Larry, just on principle. Hopefully Ben turns it around in the second half.

as far as Deng goes, I'd like to see him rebounding the ball a bit better
2 rebounds in 18 minutes really doesn’t cut it from the SF slot. Although, he’s been efficient scoring the ball and has played pretty solid all around, so I guess I should just hope he starts hitting the glass soon or just not be so nitpicky. Meh.

This is the lineup we SHOULD go with in the 2nd half...
Rose—-Hughes—-Deng—-TT—-Gooden/Noah/Gray (whoever is playing even mediocre basketball). I DO NOT want to see Noce in there producing nothing but fouls. I DO NOT want to see BG7 out there chucking up garbage.
This is THE BUCKS. I hated the bucks before Skiles and Boylan ruined some of our guys and bolted to the worst city in the midwest. THE BUCKS, man. THE BUCKS!

am i assuming that we went with a different lineup to start again?? if that is the case, that is no way to develop consistency. i hate the ‘matchup’ starters.

I was hopeful that he would regain his shooting touch, but it is frustrating when shooters have off nights
because you know what they’re capable of. But, it comes with the territory. When the shots don’t fall, they don’t fall. The only problem I had with BG was that iso at the end of the half where he didn’t get it to Rose to create (I will always have a problem with Ben going iso to end games and halves, because he’s not good at it).

I should have said
We won’t be a .500 team. We might make the playoffs but that really means absolutely nothing if you have a below .500 record. If we get a legit big-man, we’ll be alot better obviously. The 2nd worst GM in the NBA better get a deal done for somebody.

And again,
Rose played well. Not great, but well. Ditto Deng and Gordon after that awful start. It’s just that our frong court is bad. Historically bad. Drew Gooden – 1/11. Aaron Gray – 2/6. And when players like DAN GADZURIC, a lifelong scrub, dominate you, it demonstrates exactly what kind of interior we have. Trash.

This is a terrible terrible Bulls team and its not helped by the coach not playing the best
players. Noc should not being seeing the floor. Neither should Aaron Gray. Tyrus needs to be getting WAY more minutes and so does Noah (assuming he can stop wheezing long enough to play them, because he’s good when he plays).

Fire Paxson. Honestly. I've had enough. The guy has known we haven't had a legitimate
big man for years and hasn’t addressed it. He should be fired for the Nocioni signing alone, but combined with the ridiculous other moves he’s made… the guy just HAS to go. He’s a joke and one of the worst GMs in the league. The guy has no plan. His plan before seemed to be… draft high character guys from winning programs, rebuild the team around a youth movement and then they made the Wallace signing, dumped Chandler for nothing, didn’t make a deal with the PJ Brown expiring, and basically screwed up in every way imaginable save for the drafting of Rose. Also, hiring VDN has been a disaster. The guy looks lost.

Then, when he could've got the big man
who fit his profile (big school, skilled, high character) in LMA, he didn’t take him. Good time to deviate from the formula!
But seriously: I agree. I don’t want this do-nothing milquetoast building a team around Rose. I don’t want the guy who hired VDN building a team around Rose.

You guys are so reactionary...
We just got rose, we’re just realizing what we have and what type of players we need to surround him with, so give Paxson a break. You have no idea what he’s tried to do or what he’s trying to do. I don’t either, but looking at the situation, short of drafting Noah, I can’t say I’m 100% sure he’s terrible bc his job isn’t all public knowledge. And
I was pissed about the D’antoni thing but I’m pretty sure that was all Reinsdorf. Getting Ben Wallace was mostly all Reinsdorf too, so IMO the 2 major offenses were pure Jerry.
And I dont believe anyone who said they wanted LMA over TT on draft night 2 yrs ago.

Perhaps, but this is the sort of game that makes me not want to watch basketball.
Not just the Bulls, but basketball in general. I mean seriously people, the NBA is a multi-billion dollar set of enterprises and this is the sort of thing it produces?
Seriously, this is crap, and if even people who are hard core fans think it’s crap, what does the casual fan think? I’ll tell you what they think… they don’t think twice. They go watch something else. Yuck.
You know what this league needs?
1. About half as many teams. And about half as many completely shitty players nobody cares about seeing. Seriously… get rid of the Milwaukee Bucks. Make them a team in whatever AAA sort of league you want and knock the NBA down to 16 teams. You add the 3 or 4 actually good players on the Bucks and the 3 or 4 actually good players on the Bulls, and you’ve got yourself a real, live team that someone might, if they thought about it, pay to watch play other similarly composed teams.
2. The end of uber-long guaranteed contracts. If a guy sucks, you should be able to cut his ass and get someone else. With half as many jobs, there will be someone else available. If Michael Redd or Andres Nocioni look like the broken down bums they look like, send em packing. Punish the team financially for a year or something, but don’t make fans watch years and years of Dan Gadzuric.

Well Smash,
it’s not about me not recognizing the better player. I don’t watch hundreds of hours of tape, interview them, and get paid to make the decision as to whether to take LMA or T2. People like Pax (and more importantly) Kevin Pritchard do. Additionally, this team has had the same problem since we drafted Kirk – no credible bigs. Five seasons with the same issue and Pax hasn’t addressed it. Half a decade and no progress. Scratch that – regression.
He drafted T2 instead of LMA, Noah instead of Hawes, gave away Chandler and signed, in his place, Ben Wallace. Regardless of whatever facets of his job aren’t public – and I’m sure a lot of them aren’t – he didn’t land Pao Gasol or anybody else.
He’s good at picking out guards who can play. He’s never once picked – either by free agency, trade or the draft – a credible big. And it’s not that he hasn’t had chances.
Derrick’s raised the stakes. Pax’s bad moves were magically transformed into a good one. I don’t want to gamble that will happen again.
The poster formerly known as Freethefro.
by MPG on Dec 4, 2008 6:29 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Few things...
In retrospect that sounds great but how many people weren’t stoked to get Wallace over Chandler? (I hated Wallace and liked Chandler but I was in the great minority.)
How many people (analysts, other GMs, scouts) preferred Hawes over Noah?
Thinking they had a center in place at the time, how many experts didn’t prefer Paxson to finally take a gamble on the ceiling of TT over LMA? He should have taken Roy, but based on your criticism, similar to alot of others, that we needed bigs, he went big.
Pau Gasol, yeah that makes me sick to think about it, but that effing Memphis GM should be banned for making that Lakers deal. No question the Bulls were offering more than LA, but Memphis wanted even more and no doubt Jerry squashed an expanded package due to luxury tax territory.
We could go back and forth on what may have or may not have happened, but all I’m saying is we need to give him time now that he made the blatantly correct pick of Rose and see what he does NOW.

I think this team has bunch of problems
Frontcourt is atrocious yes….but we have been competitive in all our games. We could have WON many of them. The Spurs game could have been ours, the Philly game, and the Bucks game tonight. We could have won them if things we played SMART.
That’s the most important thing with this team, playing SMART.
And right now, only Rose is doing that. He doesn’t take bad shots, he knows when to attack when to pass. But everyone else seem clueless, not just the frontcourt…but sometimes the backcourt too. Gordon, Hughes all take tons of bad shots. Deng takes bad shots. Thomas….what about his retarded jumper with about 2 minutes left huh? What was that garbage? All TERRIBLE shots….
We have to play smart first, if we do that, our record would be 11-8 and not 8-11

Everyone on the team has adapted to playing with Rose except BG.
At this point i’d rather see Hughes out there. I hated Hughes as much as the next guy, but as long as he’s taking open shots and hitting ‘em and playing solid D I think he is the far superior compliment to Rose. Right now BG is obviously competing with Rose and trying to do things he wouldn’t normally do.

I said, I know that BG is a better player i'm not doubting that.
But if Derrick can score like he has been, we don’t really need another scorer like Ben. Especially if he’s forcing stuff up like he did today. If Larry could defend like he did today and take mostly open shots I really think he can be a better option.

yes, Rose will need other scorers. He's merely a point god
he can’t be the best player, primary ballhandler, and take the entire scoring load too. A championship team around Rose won’t be him and 4 guys standing and taking jumpshots. argh.
Gordon forces shots because his teammates can’t. It’s not a perfect combination yet, but when I read that the first problem is always Gordon it pisses me off.

I didn't say that BG was the first problem.
I just don’t think he’s the answer in the long term. Obviously we don’t only need four jump shooters around Rose. I think that you can play a guy like Hughes next to Rose if you could somehow supplant BG with a productive frontcourt player.

Paxson/Vinny
The real problem is Reinsdorf not Paxson. Paxson is just a pawn, he has no real power. Reinsdorf fucked up the coaching hire. Wasn’t a huge D’Antoni fan, but he would have been a great fit as coach. Vinnie is awful, way overmatched. Even if Pax gets fired, Reinsdorf is only gonna hire a yesman anyway….he has the wallet and the final say. Don’t get me wrong, Pax has screwed up but until we get a real owner who is willing to pay luxury tax to field a real team, the Bulls are screwed.
