way to ruin my Friday, KD

Not that you said it, but that I fear you’re right. Vinny’s seen success. Correlation equals causation, and Nocioni at center is clearly what it takes to beat the NBA’s best.

This is why I want Nocioni traded and not benched. Coaches cannot help themselves with that guy.

Causation does NOT equal correlation!!!

When I watch NBA games I often call the fouls before the referees do. Sometimes it’s a gift. Most of the time it's troublesome. - NBA Observer

i thought Tyrus played center in the 4th?

i didn’t see a 3 guard line up or a Sefo-Deng-Noce frontcourt.

Blah I like what one person said about Skeets pic

“He looks like John Turturros broke cousin”

But everyone could see he wasn’t or couldn’t do what he wanted yesterday night. (I guess from that cold) But we did play well so its like who cares things like this happens and its ours. Not much JE can say that would make me look poorly on this.

Ugh, last night's win is going to make me sick. I can feel it.

Cleveland was without three starters, LeBron missed 13 shots in a row, we were tied through 3 quarters and held the Cavs to 16 in the 4th… and still we had to go to overtime at home. So little of this was skill, so much was luck. And I can already see Gordon cleaning out his locker in a few months because of it. asfaefimoawpef

We were coming off a back to back and didn't give it our best shot but

The thing is we were looking much better than we have been and they still are one of the best teams in the league.

Against the best team in the league?

I’d consider it a real win. Great teams like the Cavs could still finish us off, who cares if LeBron had an off night. Bulls still ran away with it in overtime, not their fault if Cleveland wanted to pack it in.

And look at the Cavs tonight. No Delonte West, and they bitch slap the Hornets.

Vinny Del Negro interviewed for the job today. I mean come on! Nobody else thinks this is nuts?

Against an 11-7 road team missing three starters

The problem wasn’t the win, the problem was how we won it. I’m sure Paxson was at least considering trading Kirk or Luol this year, but now it’s harder to do because fans all of a sudden love them. Even on BaB I’m hearing talk about how Luol just needed to find his groove. He sucks.

The Bulls are actually in as good a position now as they have been since Jordan left. Dump two longterm contracts, resign Gordon, extend Tyrus longterm – and we have a possible superstar talent, an efficient second option, a couple of young talented bigs, a top 15 pick in next year’s draft, and cash available for 2010. Yet now I can see Paxson going back to the hustle, scrappy 2004 Bulls that can win 45 games every year but never sniff a title – which means keeping Hinrich, Deng, Nocioni (who all played in the 4th and OT). Just speculation, ~~hoping~~ ~~begging~~ praying it doesn’t happen.

Luol Deng does not suck.

Your head is firmly up your ass on this subject. You and Lex Diamond can find solace together.

Viva la nuance! Reading comprehension rules!!!

Deng looks like he's actually healthy...

for the first time in a while. He’s been a beast on the glass these last two games and his shot looks like it’s that sweet 2006 form. Oh and he buried two three’s in a row to help clinch the game in OT…

Why does everyone rag on Ty and Lu when they are CLEARLY the second and third most important players on this team?
