Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

"Our energy and effort overall in the fourth quarter was the difference"

Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro said of the team's 2/9/10 victory over the Pacers. Does he realize every time he says things like this he's essentially admitting that the Bulls aren't really better at basketball than the other team? Sadly, he's proabably right.

A direct dig at Thomas!!!

(yes, I have a complex)

In the past 10 years, just four team owners have not paid a luxury tax and are not on pace to pay one this year: Donald Sterling, Jerry Reinsdorf, Chris Cohen (Golden State), Bob Johnson (Charlotte).

Two owners’ teams averaged an operating income of over +$10 million per year while their teams have lost over 60% of their games: Donald Sterling and Jerry Reinsdorf.

So, Tyrus is probably only getting 6 minutes tonight, right?

It’s too bad there aren’t any online betting sites with over/unders on Tyrus’ minutes? We could all clean up.

Hopefully he was told to play Ty a whole lot

To focus on his talents, to make his trade value somewhat look like a positive gamble for another team.

All your base are belong to Vinny.

I have nothing personal against Taj

but I’m hoping he racks up some quick Personal fouls tonight so Vinny will be forced to give Tyrus some more floor time again.

I apologize to rosegirl for spelling “again” correctly (King’s English version)…..my bad. I’ll try not to do that agian.

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

VDN chronically mentions 'effort' and 'energy' as the difference each game

it’s annoying. But honestly it’s all he really coaches anyway, so he might as well evaluate it.

Only Vinny keyword missing was "thrust"

and that word makes one think he has a background in jet engines or rocket propulsion.
