i think we look pretty good. we have length, athleticism, and a solid bench. our interior defense should improve from last year with all those big bodies inside. 38 wins is a joke — i see us going for 45 or so. and we’re gonna be a really fun team to watch. go bulls!

i’m sold on byars. we should sign him for the minimum if we can.
by DLRoth on Oct 6, 2009 2:33 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
He's also important, to my way of thinking,
because he gives us flexibility with regard to Salmons. John’s a heck of an asset – and I’d love to have a cheap, young, threepoint shooter with defensive aptitude, if the opportunity arises to make a big deal.

good, I'm possibly even more excited to get back to normal Deng commenting
instead of seeing people hopping on the ‘he sucked all along I told you!’ bandwagon (while he plays on a freaking broken leg) will now instead merely brainlessly say he ‘disappears’ too much in 4th quarters and throw in some misogynist remark for flavor.

he looked good today, I'm just mad they didn't let him play at all in the 4th quarter
so get ready to pull your hair out over that. I guess maybe they’re trying not to do too much too fast, but in front of his family and friends you couldn’t give him 3 or 4 fourth quarter minutes?

although i gotta admit i hate the fact the nba doesnt allow you to buy entire games from the past. I mean if you missed a certain players career night, you will never be able to watch it again unless someone does “pirate” the game (and even then once the circulation for that download stops, which happens fairly quickly, the game dissapears) I even emailed nba.com asking if they would sell my hinrichs career game, i assume the nba has an archive that contains every game ever played within the 5 years or so (at least) so they probably could make a copy of the game for distribution, but they dont…they dont sell the games themselves and they forbid the rest of the world from doing so….its cruel….

you play them while they’re on fire, then pull them when they’re not. Unless he’s shooting it well, he’s gonna a liability.

True, and with the injuries and preseason and all he got tons of PT, which he hopefully won't in the regular season
Still stands out to me, though. I’m not a big fan of the whole “shooters shoot” thing. It’s bad enough when it’s the star player and a team is counting on them – when it’s a deeper bench guy it drives me nuts.

my guess would be that he and tyrus split minutes at the 4
today Johnson had about 28 minutes, Taj had 33, and Richards had 20.
Obviously, I don’t know exactly what minutes happened where, but taking out Richards’ minutes and a good deal of Gibson’s, there should be plenty of time left for both Tyrus and Johnson.

I realize these were a different set,
But didn’t they get criticized in the last game for using instant replay with the game already decided and just a couple of seconds on the clock?
I suppose Sloan doesn’t care that much about the outcome of a preseason game, but still kind of seems like someone from the Jazz would have asked them to review it.

Well, in his defense,
He wasn’t playing SG today, and I’m guessing Vinny was far more interested in seeing other parts of the offense. Kirk seemed to be making a big effort to get all the guys involved, especially Lu.

while I’m sure Deron wasn’t on Kill-Mode, I think he only had 2 points before Hunter came in.

here we go the negativity from the Score670 everyone is a bum but Rose.
bum is kinda strong.
I've got this thing and it's fucking golden!

Sure looked like a bunch of bums today, huh?
How could we even all stand to watch that lousy shooting, no energy rebounding, selfish no-passing, flat footed no-blocking game?

I think Berenstein watches games and knows a good amount about basketball
but he just has a tendency to get a little hyperbolic when discussing the Bulls and basketball as a whole. Every player is either the worst ever or incredible. Get’s a little tiring.

The Score sucks. Even worse than ESPN 1000.
It’s pretty sad there’s more intelligent commentary on Chicago blogs than the actual legit media outlets.

What a sick ass ending! I'd say for preseason basketball that's about as good as it gets

Did anyone else notice Derrick's celebration?
Ummm, I coulda sworn his ankle injury wasn’t so serious?
The dude was jumpin on one foot throughout the whole celebration.
Not an encouraging sign

Yeah I was checking out everyone's celebration
and he did look gimpy. If they have to sit him the whole preseason then do it. I don’t think he even needs to play anymore, why risk injury?

Hey from London I was at the game
Needless to say I was pissed off that Derrick Rose and Tyrus Thomas did not play. I got to the arena late (midway 2nd Quarter, Kevin Smith was doing a sigining lol), but that buzzer beater was friggin insane!
Funniest thing about the night? Noah is very easily distracted. During all the timeouts and huddles, he was the only player looking the other way at the Bobblehead mascot race between Benny the Bull and the Jazz Bear, and when the Cheerleaders were.
I just thought it was a funny thing

Sounds like everyone is doing really well.
Someday I might actually be able to watch a game.
How has Vinny been? Too early to tell?

good evening from London
I was at the game… A dream come true to see the Bulls after 20 years as a fan.
My thoughts:
a.) This is gonna be a fun team to watch this year… Athletic, fast, hussle playing, lean and mean. Love it.
B.) The rookies are AWESOME – taj and JJ. SO much potential.
C.) We will definitely make the playoffs. Noah will dominate this season.
D.) I love my Bulls!
What an awesome night at the O2 arena…

Pretty late out there in London, isn't it? ;)
Seems strange. Our Bulls always have the greatest games when they don’t matter (1st round playoffs, preseason).

I gotta say it...
Dejuan Blair with 16pts and 19rebounds in 22 minutes!
Taj is a nice player, but damn. That one’s gonna haunt us for a long time.

In the top 10 of the draft he might be a risk
but for what we could have got him at it wasn’t as much of a risk. So it will haunt us more.

I agree that Taj is a nice (hustle) player with some skills
and I hope Tyrus realizes he’s not going to be allowed to drift off this season if he doesn’t want his court time reduced. After watching the game on NBA tv, I was impressed by the energy our rookies exhibited, along with Noah. But the announcers ranting on about the great Taj was overhyped in my opinion and he poses no immediate threat to my favorite manchild.
Considering his stat line read in 33 minutes of action: 4 of 8 from the field, 2 of 4 FT,
5 boards, zero assists, a steal, 2 monster blocks, 4 TO’s and 6 PF’s although some of his fouls were ticky tacky. If TT posted the same numbers, his detractors would complain about his lack of rebounding, turnovers and stupid fouls.
Johnson was much more impressive to me with his overall game: 28 minutes with 5 of 12 FG including a 3 pointer, 7 of 7 from the line, 2 assists, 1 steal, 2 nice blocks, 4 TO’s, 5 fouls and of course the rebound among his team leading 8 which allowed hm to toss up a rainbow game winner with 0.1 ticks left on the clock. Both rookies showed great hustle which I hope will rub off on Tyrus. Their efforts could either motivate or expose Thomas and I’m counting on the former, since he is still younger than Taj and just barely older than James and I believe his major issues revolve more around a lack of maturity rather than a lack of intelligence.
Win or lose, this year’s team is going to be more exciting, regardless of our coaching void with the improvement of Noah and having the luxury of both Miller and Salmons for an entire season, a healthy Kurt and the great Rose with a full year of experience.
But in the end, I think the 2 key elements in having a winning season and going deep into the playoffs rest on the shoulders of our x and y factors, Lindsey Hunter, the lightning quick high scoring youthful ball handling wizard coming off the bench (just as he did in game 7 last year against the Celtics instead of Tyrus), and how fast our super subs speedy big men tandem of Aaron Gray and Jerome James can recover from thier injuries.
If you can't answer a man's arguments, all is not lost. You can still call him vile names.

I was there :D
Joa: 6 blocks
Luol: he is as big as LBJ and Kobe in London – not that it means that much in a country seemingly interested only in football/soccer, but you should see the those posters depicting him as an NBA superstar. He had a nice game, the UK fans really love him
Kirk: hit some shots, dribbled as much as he could.
Pargo: shoots too much
Taj: way better than I tought he would be
Johnson: had a nice game, also had a couple of silly turnovers

"Luol: he is as big as LBJ and Kobe in London"
I was in Melbourne a few years ago, and there was a big mural of two basketball players: Michael Jordan and Luc Longley. In one place at least, they were equals :-D

I was there :D / Part2
I forgot to mention that I also met Derrick at the local Adidas store. He signed my ball (no pun intended) but was slightly less enthusiastic than I was. Spoiled brat, he wasted his only chance to talk to me :D I was really pissed when I learnt he would not play – basically I flew to London from Hungary to watch him, Joa and Brad play. Gosh, it took only 24 years to watch my first Bulls game. BJ was also at the store, he looks as lean and fit as ever.

Hey, I live right next to Chicago
and I have not gotten 100 ft of Rose. You are still lucky you got to meet him before he is too superstar to meet regular people.
