I didn't visit the game thread yesterday and don't know if it was contentious, but I forgot to give my pre-season remark to make sure you flag jerkholes, else I'll never know of their jerkholeness.

I think he's got it scientifically figured out that
from that exact spot on the floor his weird release makes the ball go in. I don’t remember him shooting from any other spot on the floor yet. If he shot on the other side it would probably spin out.
Everything I post is speculation. I have no insider information nor ideas deemed concrete enough by those who are self-elected to regulate post content.
I think he just plays in that spot a lot (high post, right elbow)
and teams always sag off him because his jumper is heinous. If he keeps making it, they might step up on it.

His shooting slumps were not based on the mood of the team.
He could get it going no matter how bad everyone else was. These Bulls tend to rise and fall together. Which is great when everyone is playing well, but not so great when no one can jump start the offense.

If you're losing big
What is the point of not playing them? I don’t see a problem. Especially if they show to be better than Salmons or Deng
Jannero Pargo = Larry Hughes 2.0

in the 4th once it’s over.
and then the score will get even worse.
point is, if the rooks were playing, you’d see why they shouldn’t be. yes, it could be worse.

Who cares if the score could be worst
The game might be lost already. Deng and Salmons are playing like shit and the score can be worse if both continue with that kind of play in the 3rd. At least give JJ some experience, give him a chance to prove himself. If he doesn’t play, we will never now how he will do
Jannero Pargo = Larry Hughes 2.0
The Bulls like to draft some players on potential,
and then say they aren’t good enough to play.
Kind of annoying to me.
Rookies picked that late normally don't play
but seasoned basketball players like Deng and Salmons shouldn’t be sucking this bad either. Might as well play JJ even if it is to have a guy with some heart out there. Might fire up the other guys.

This has been annoying me for years.
Eddy Curry and Tyson Chandler played behind Charles Oakley and Corie Blount. Then Jay Williams and Jamal Crawford rarely played at the same time.
Back to back games...
If this is the effort the bulls give in the secong game of most back to backs, this will be a loooong season.
Let's get a "Start Kirk at the 2" bandwagon going
Because when Salmons isn’t hitting shots, this team is just disjointed on offense.
I'm telling you - we just never win this game
It’s the first Boston away game curse. It doesn’t matter how we play or how we feel. It was a foregone conclusion.

and the game could be much closer, still the celtics just look much better on both ends tonight.

They are national darlings and the media is ALWAYS on their nuts. The Bulls? Every single time we’re on national TV, we are highlighted AFTER the team we’re up against and the “analysts” disrespect us and just talk about how losing BG makes us a terrible team. Avery Johnson (who is clearly biased b/c Vinny got the job over him) didn’t even have us making the playoffs—what a joke.
I hope we come out here with some passion, even if we don’t win.
Get use to Rose seeing double and triple teams
There is no one else on the team that demands a double team. So if Salmons is making them pay or Deng not picking up the slack, this is what it will look like
Hubbie tell me what PP does well because he hasn't been in the fucking league
for ten years. Or tell me that a player has to go up and dunk it.

The Boston Celtics are the best defensive team in the league. Rose is being double teamed at the top of the key, and he is dropping assists to guys and they are missing shots. The only person stepping up is… Tyrus. Only 1 player can make a high level play with the ball in his hands – Rose.

Damn you and your rationale
But yeah, you’re right. It just sucks watching this game after what we saw last night.
they need to move the ball better, and stick open shots. the only way to beat a defense like
Boston’s is to move the ball faster than they can recover. The Bulls haven’t done it tonight, and even when they have Salmons or Deng or whoever has bricked the open look.
