Around SBN: My First Fight: Diego Sanchez

Official thread of good feelings for tomorrow night

There is a lot of angst and evil feelings on this site, possibly stemming from the fact our favorite team played like poo poo for 6 months, and the only thing we have to look forward to is Kosta Koufos and Tom Thibodeau making it rain next season. However, as a naive member of the college society, I think we can swing our Bulls to a top 2 pick and possible redemption by posting happy thoughts in this thread. Don't have any? Then post your snarkiest remark, but be sure to add an emoticon at the end :).

Star-divide

My positive thought is that Kirk Hinrich will average a 16/7 next year, Luol Deng will score 20 points on teams that don't suck worse than us, and Larry Hughes will congeal into a pile of money we get to divide among Bulls fans.

Gordon grew 2 inches taller since the season ended!

and instead of practicing jump shots with his buddy during the last 5 weeks, he went to a special camp to learn how to play defense effectively. His goal is to become a better Bruce Bowen and become a starter in the NBA for the whole season.

by exult463 on May 19, 2008 4:26 PM CDT reply actions  

this team had been bothered by so much.

the fact that they are professionals doesn’t take their emotions to the game.
-if anyone here posting is a PRO BASKETBALL PLAYER and keeps bashing the bulls I respect that, but if not, just shut up and live.

you made a very good run last season, so momentum is building up in maybe everyone’s game. But the leaders you played with in the game who inspired you somehow, turns down a long term contract somehow implying that they don’t want to stay on that team for long, what happens to you now?

in your HOMECOURT, where the fans should cheer for you but instead cheers for KOBE in exchange of you balling in the floor, how will you deal with that?

man these are young players youre with, and maybe they don’t like Skiles system.And you being somebody there and one of the oldest ones got tired and set a bad example to your young teammates, and later on you saw Skiles depart. do you know why skiles got fired?because youre only playing for the money, not for the game.

yeah they’re professionals but still they will feel bad if something is not good around them.suspensions by numerous players(veterans or young players) in this team is a sign that they’re losing interest in playing the game.

but still im a believer to this team.
just watch them..

but i dont know who “you” is :)

its

everybody..

tyrus and noah plus gray and gordon and thabo.they should try starting them at the same time/no PG but i think gordon can practice doing that job.or they can draft a point guard NOT A BIGGIE IGGIE GUMBALL and they should dump hughes,free duhon and keep gooden.they can keep noc if they want but DENG,NOC,THABO,TYRUS,NOAH,GRAY,GORDON,GOODEN,maybe HINRICH and a well seasoned and grilled veteran like manu and a veteran player turned coach like shaw. this will be a dynasty like 200 championships.

if

only it is that easy

I vote for Thomas to play, play more and play regularly.-Sam Smith

by tyrus4prez on May 20, 2008 1:24 PM CDT up reply actions  

i didn't say

its gonna be easy. i just said that they could try that line-up. body in the middle and length in the baseline. strength on inside offense plus length in offensive rebounding. length and strength and speed at the backcourt plus thabo’s defense.

naaah i don’t know..its just what i think.

we’ll let’s see what happens..

by Aiafati on May 20, 2008 4:31 PM CDT up reply actions  

There aren't

enough hours in the day for Gordon to practice being a point guard.

by sue369 on May 20, 2008 3:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

why

not?he’s been playing basketball since 10,000 BC. its not like he can’t learn how to be a point guard in 6 months. if they give me the chance to train to be an NBA point guard in 6 months and they will supply a physical trainer, a coach and an assistant haaaa! that would be awesome.

6 months is enough.

by Aiafati on May 20, 2008 4:42 PM CDT up reply actions  

Six years is not enough.

He’s a horrible ball handler. If he was going to get better it would have happened by now and he hasn’t. He’s a one dimensional player. Sixth man is his role.

Dammit I said good feelings

Ben Gordon is going to have the handles of Chris Paul, Steve Nash, Deron Williams combined because I said so!

Actually, you do need

a backup PG for those 12-15 min, unless you go w/ Thabo.

Aiafati, if you’ve seen any of NO Hornets, and Chris Paul is the new standard, you know BG is hopeless at PG.

Joakim Noah for player/coach!

by marionette on May 20, 2008 8:58 PM CDT up reply actions  

And I'm glad for that!

Although I won’t be crushed if he goes and BG stays, I like his all around game better. And I think BG is more tradeable.

Joakim Noah for player/coach!

Thanks for the good vibes

and lucky thread too, Oz. I am definitely feeling better tonight!

Joakim Noah for player/coach!

by marionette on May 20, 2008 9:17 PM CDT up reply actions  

well

yeah you said it and i’ll admit that cp3 is the new standard but what if?
gordon has the range, he can be a streak shooter, he has a strong body, just a little improvement to his speed, and the brains.

i also thought just by watching gordon that he can’t be like chris paul.
those soft moves by cp3 is incomparable..

still we can’t tell. room for improvement is the biggest room in the world.
im not saying that i like gordon’s play.
i just want to see everyone try a different role to the game,plus if he becomes a great PG he’s got a new nickname “BG the PG”
but i think derrick rose is really coming to town.or d Wade.

hey, hopeless musn’t be a word in the NBA.

I envy

your optimism.

No but since I can speculate like hell

Yes, Derrick Rose is coming to town.

Positive vibe #2

Ben Gordon vows to scat on the Knicks and D’Antoni like it’s 2005 http://youtube.com/watch?v=Wg_aeCfsJoc .

Tyrus Thomas will average a 20/20 against the Bucks, then tell Skiles he was only running down the court at half-speed.

Bulls win the Lottery

First Pick….
immediately someone starts a poll on Bab (Rose or Bealey)
Rose gathers 65% of the vote. Paxson’s official pick now becomes a no-brainer, but he doesn’t give any indication to the media that he’ll pick Rose.

by exult463 on May 19, 2008 5:08 PM CDT reply actions  

Paxson plays mystery game

and tells the media he likes Roy Hibbert athleticism, and he has had his eye on him for two years now.

I hope this doesn’t disrupt your vibe,

I hope this doesn’t disrupt your vibe, but on one of the games last week, the announcer mentioned that the Maloofs held a Sacramento drawing to see who would represent the team at the lottery.

The lady that won is a decades long season ticket holder whose great grandmother had a ticket on the Titanic…but at the last minute couldn’t make the trip. That’s some tough karma to beat.

3rd pick

we draft bayless who turns out to be the best player in the draft. then we trade hinrich, Hughes, and next years 1st rounder for a big 2 guard to start or backup BG. (Bowen or Igoudala or Arenas).

Hey there...

I’m sorry if I can’t recommend Matt or his favorite blog-a-buddy. I can tell they’re plenty smart, but you have to be willing to initiate, a la Khalid (I’d hire him myself, but we’re not taking on any trainees right now)…but all I ever see from them is witty(?) come-backs and put-downs.
