That logic is just silly. Most of Ben’s supporters on here are the types to give you rational, well-thought reasons why they like him and appreciate him, while also pointing out his flaws (well except for Andrew).

Ben is good and he plays for your team. So stop hating him so much.

He is better than your average backup and maybe even better than your average starter, but still 25 shots for a point guard is a lot.

Noah with similarly impressive work.

Great, great job from the young bigs tonight. Noah got to the line 4 times in his 30 minutes, and Tyrus got 5 FTA in his 40. The whole team was getting to the line tonight. It was great to see.

Great win....and here is my 2 cents worth of pithy observations.

Tyrus once again grabs the spotlight as “The human highlight film.”

Kirk had an awesome game on both ends of the court….sorry Kurt haters.

Ben did what he always does…takes and makes some crazy shots, gets burned for 20 points and 8 assists by Will Bynum who upped his career average of 4.8 points and 1.9 assists…but I still love him.

Salmon’s shot was off tonight but he hit two big 3’s in a row in the 4th quarter just as the Pistons were threatening to close.

Noah starting to look like a terrific pick at 9 for Paxson….6 for 9 from the field, 3 of 4 free throws and 10 boards. I think his comfort zone has taken a quantam leap knowing that Brad Miller is covering his flank.

Lindsey Hunter should never see the floor unless its garbage time and Tim Thomas shouldn’t be allowed to steal minutes from Tyrus like he did against Washington.

Vinny once again due to injuries was limited on his substitution options which is always a positive for the Bulls.

And finally, the cherry on the top was provided by good old Kirk who missed the free throw to keep the score at 99, thus once again thwarting the imbecilic cretinous morons from adding to their trygliceride counts.

If you can't answer a man's arguments, all is not lost. You can still call him vile names.

Yea i mean this place could be more of a utopia than blazers edge if there wasnt all this hinrich fan vs ben gordon fan beef. Its been here forever every year growing stronger and stronger. I read the tribune article and i guess all the players (or the important ones rather) were laughing at various moments in the game, and all played real well, i saw hinrich did take a bunch of shots but hinrichs always been that kind of combo guard. Hes not good enough to be a starting shooting guard, and especially on this team not good enough to be a starting pg, but he can play a bit like both of them and get the job done, especially on good nights such as today.

I, for awhile was sort of disgruntled that we got rose since its what really eliminates any chance of people on the bulls being okay with hinrich (until his contract goes away at least) but then i stop and realize the ultimate truth, rose will be so much better than hinrich its not even funny… I really would like to see kirk with portland cuz i think he can help them win now. Hell we can give portland kirk and deng, and id think theyd be set for a long while, cuz eventually bayless would take the starting job, just as hinrichs contract came to a close, hinrich could (this is my ideal) be signed back to chicago as a backup with a backup contract and portland can still be a dominating team….whoa!

But yea i want to watch this game….damn i need to find a replay of this game!

heh touche

i dont usually wish bad on anybody or groups but….man i am so waiting for the day when all those contracts with the blazers come calling and players are let go and some are signed and others traded and that blazers world comes crashing down around them (much like the bulls last year)….id like to see how far that no swearing rule takes them then…

thanks, this site is awesome

its like a chinese version of hulu with sports lol

Sometimes I wish we would have hired Doug Collins as our coach in the summer of 2008. Then we could have fired him and won 6 more championships!

I was at the game

And I must say I’m extremely proud of you guys for ragging on the morons at the UC.
I’ve never seen such a retarded thing in my life.

My friends who I where with started cheering for big macs and tried to get me to join in, I looked at them and told them sit down you fucking retards. They just destroyed a team that we really needed a win against. I was happy with that, I didn’t need a Big Mac to go home happy.

And after the game they interviewed Hinrich, dunno if it was on TV or not, they booed the shit out of him. No I’m a Gordon guy, so naturally Hinrich annoys me.
 =)
But I will give the man props he played well enough for us to win. All after the game the whole UC was booing the hell out of him. I seriously wanted to jump on the court hug Kirk and say fuck you dumbass “fans”. It was also pretty funny that Kirk apologized to the UC mongoloids during the interview too.
Great game, wish I could have seen Rose, but I’ll take a W instead.

tyrus and noah setting a screen

seems to have improved dramatically in the last few games. Maybe Miller is showing them how to do it.

Also, I saw hinrich extend his legs dramatically to get past his defender and score at the rim like rose does.

These guys seem to be learning from this years new players at the right time.

Yea i noticed some of that early in the season

like gordon has dunked the ball more this year than ever, and i dont think its cuz he now magically has the hops, he always has im sure. But i think watching rose do it, gordon was like shoot, i can do that too…and hes better for it i think.

Intresting quote i heard on comcast from gordon when asked what he thought about kirk running the point vs gordon " IT was different. The tempo was different because rose has a different style and kirk has a different style. But …you know…it was definetly different"

I may be off a bit (doing it off of memory) but thats the jist of it…it made me laugh

It's TNT who SUCKS!

To say both of these teams suck on the half-time report is
simply irresponsible and unprofessional. TNT CHOSE to show
this game.

The play-by-play guys missed key plays all night, by incessant babble
about nothing. And Reggie Miller suggesting TT should average a triple-double,
with blocks being one of the categories is insanity.

The NBA leader is Dwight Howard, at 2.99 per game. But Thomas SHOULD BE GETTING
10. Even Fratello busted Miller for that.

I will not dis Funk/King so much now! I missed them last night.

TNT – “EPIC FAIL!”

If Tyrus

gets that many blocks he likely isn’t playing team defense. So not a good goal really.

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.

by cranscape on Mar 25, 2009 8:22 AM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah I mean the first half was a sleep walk by the Bulls who Miller

said isn’t good enough to just turn it on in the second half. Guess you haven’t been watching many Bulls games.

The whole Charles thing was expected because if it’s not a team in the West he never seems to really have anything to say.

First thing I wanna know is how Reggie Miller was allowed in the UC?

Pool and a pond... Pond be good for you.

i was a little worried last night

without rose playing. luckily captain kirk filled in nicely.
