Hmmm
I agree with Barkley not sure how Rose fell but its good to go with the flow a bit when falling in general.
yeah
he should have went head first

Bulls need to let the Clippers overtake them record-wise
I am sure playing without Deng, Rose, and Noah the team will just combust until next season.
What happened to Rose?
Is it serious?

Left wrist sprain going against Howard again
At max out 2-3 games

Miller and Pargo
they may have been the most poorly executed pick n’ roll attempt I have ever seen
by chitownsports25 on Mar 11, 2010 8:54 PM CST reply actions
Did Pargo shoot?
And by ‘did he shoot’, I mean ‘did he hit the rim?’
Go Rockets/Nets[CDR]/Bucks[Jennings]!
I was talking about the one along the sideline where they collided and the ball rolled out of bounds. Magic didn’t really have to do anything on defense.

Well,
you didn’t need to be a mind reader to guess this would happen.
Go Rockets/Nets[CDR]/Bucks[Jennings]!
I don't know why I bothered to look at the score.
But….I did :(
Is Rose’s injury serious? Or are they just being cautious?
At max out 2-3 games. Should be back in 2 games?

Are the Bulls swapping picks with the Bucs this year?
by Badmotostinkfinger on Mar 11, 2010 9:01 PM CST reply actions
If it's the 11th pick or higher, yes.
So, if they’re going to miss the playoffs they need the 10th pick.

We just got home and turned the game on.
Not looking so good. Hope Derrick’s injury doesn’t keep him out long. Damn.

"I don't want a massage I want a FACIAL!"
--stay strong, Stacey King.
my calender says its march, but damn if this hasnt looked like a preseason game.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
You know, a lot of times when I watch the Bulls
I wonder why everything looks so hard for this team and so easy for other teams.
for the starters too?
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
Not so much when the "regular" starters are available.
They’ve had some smooth looking games this season. But the mismatched lineups? Although I guess that also partly explains why they look so bad.
well, i asked because i feel the same way regardless of the lineup. maybe its the spacing?
i dont know, i guess i dont watch a lot of sacramento or new york, but it sure seems like the bulls spacing is ncaa-like, except with more athletic defenders.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
I don't think Derrick-Kirk-Lu-Taj-Jo looked too bad when all were healthy
Then again, it’s been a while. But outside of that?
Maybe spacing. Maybe just lack of chemistry from not playing much together, or trying to do too much for guys who don’t get much PT. Whatever it is, we just look so dang overmatched and uncoordinated all the time.
this team can fucking compete its just laziness by some of our players

uh no...Orlando has at at least 3 times the talent, and 10 times the thrust, that the Bulls do

it's sad when an opposing team has more thrust than the bulls
when it was VDN who made the term up

If you take out Vince Carter, the game would be tied.
Long ways to go, but I’m pleased they came out of the half fighting
you mean like declare Carter a 3rd team
and count his points separately. i like that idea
by Basketball Smurf on Mar 11, 2010 9:09 PM CST up reply actions
I've always heard he only cares about himself. ;)
A stand-alone team in the midst of the Magic, sort of like the Vatican.
oh god
they switched to Barkley and Smith because the game is so bad

i tried to think of the most boring team to watch in the nba, and i decided that the pacers were it.
obviously if rose is hurt too this changes things.

you could be right...
but without rose i think we take the cake for sure

Hinrich makes a good captain when Vinnie shuts his mouth and lets Hinrich lead
by bullsfan24 on Mar 11, 2010 9:18 PM CST reply actions
Derrick - with Kirk - led us to a big first quarter deficit
But Kirk – without Derrick – was somehow suppose to do better?
I'm not particularly mad at Kirk but...
I don’t get the just “let Hinrich lead” comment in the context of this game. At all.
If you can get anything
out of bullsfan24 comments please fill the rest of us in.

Why is Reggie saying the Lakers traded away Ariza he decided where he wanted to go. And everyone blames the Magic for losing Hedo he was offered more by another team wasn’t he….
they had the opportunity to offer him just as much money
and chose to give it to Bass and Gorat

they need gortat and Bass makes their bench deep for the playoffs

It wasn't...
it was an 8 foot turnaround that never came within 3 feet of the rim
Whats the status on Rose?
I couldn’t watch after he went to the locker room.
How can we have the worst offense in the league when everything about our team owner and coach is offensive?

absolutley no way in hell rose/deng play tomorrow
and honestly, its the right decision. the playoffs arent going to happen. number one goal: get the fuck intot he top 10 in the draft and say fuck you milwaukee
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
Taj ought to take a seat too
Maybe they should make Jerome James get his fat ass out on the court and see if they can make him die of embarrassment.
i cant tell if your being sarcastic or not, but my feeling is
right now we know the playoffs arent going to happen. so why the fuck kill our injured guys when we arent going to win anyway?
the bulls need to sit noah/deng/taj/rose for most of the rest of the year (noah all of it), and get the fuck into the top 10 to get that pick from milwaukee. i dont see the point in killing everybody to finish 3 games behind charlotte for the right to get blown out in 4 in a row while watching lebron dance.
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
I was being sarcastic about James, not Taj
I agree there’s no reason to let an important player get hurt in a meaningless game.
the only good thing to come out of this game

How bad must he be not to get minutes on this team
"Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen." - Michael Jordan
Is this game worth watching?
I haven’t looked at the score, and I’m thinking about firing up the DVR. I’m resigned to the loss, but some good JJ action would make it worthwhile for me.

Don't do it. Just pretend this game never happened

If you decide to give it a chance, skip the first half
The second half hasn’t been so bad, as long as you’re numb to the blowout loss.
good JJ action
some decent Pargo, some decent Law.
and Joe Alexander tackling every Magic player in sight.
Watch the second half if anything.

you know how they have "crunch numbers" at 82games. do they have like "forgone conclusion"

I remember Joe A at W. Virgina
I really thought he’d be a player at this level. What happened?
"Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen." - Michael Jordan
Injuries. No PT.
I kind of think he was a bad fit on a Skiles team – guys who don’t play much defense don’t get much of a shot….
yaopau once explained how the nba should have seen this coming with him, but i forgot to remember
the gist of the argument.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
know that if i were gm i would have dealt kirk for morrison and sasha and youd have your wish.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
i wish we had morrison
because that would mean no hinrich
Fuck. The. Org..
There is nobody on the floor who was here in training camp. Org. is gettng karmaraped because being a bitch to tyrus.
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
It's been garbage time since late 3rd quarter
The end of bench guys from training camp wouldn’t be doing better.
no playoffs = either nobody or boozer
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
Miami can offer more money (no sales tax), and girls wearing much less clothing
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
Something about Vince Carter getting veryexcite every time Howard (intentionally ) destroys Rose
Carter gets this “we’s gon win” mentality every time rose is gone for the game, and just does 3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3.
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
yeah...i know its not intentional...i guess...let me be irrationally angry, damnit! no playoffs or max fa!
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
Only time the Bulls played well in this game was a 15-1 run to cut it to 19 (or whatever the hell it was) in the 3rd
then vinny del fuckablowupdoll decided to matchups. the result? several magic 3s, a foul, and back to 30 point lead.
Why aren't they selling Rose's all star jersey?
Oh look at Kirk, the 9.5 million dollar man stepped up for the injured Derrick Rose
and scored 6 points, oh my god, lets throw a parade already, 6 points in 27 minutes oh my god Superstar Captain Kirk is the best.

I think he's a better player in general than you give him credit for.
I also think he’s stuck in a role on the Bulls that hides some of his strengths while accentuating his weaknesses. He’d be better off playing PG for a team that needs a starting PG. The Bulls would be better off allocating the cap hit differently, provided they can get someone through free agency or trade that plays SG better than Kirk. Right now, he’s the Bulls’ best option there.
I will tell you my thoughts.
He’s 30 now? He’s 2 months older than I am. I have watched him play for 7 years now. He’s not getting younger. But he needs to be dealt summer. I don’t care what you think he could offer anymore. It’s over. He’s done in Chicago. I agree he would fit better on another team.
Well I was just putting it nicely.
Kirk does suck.

No fuck that I wanna fight.
I got shit for saying Hinirch and Deng suck for years. I wanna enjoy this.
I'm not fighting. You wanted to make fun of his stats.
Certainly not a parade-worthy night – but as I pointed out above, Derrick led the Bulls to an 11 point deficit before getting hurt, and that was with Kirk available. Since you obviously don’t think Kirk is better than Derrick, I’m wondering why you think he should have done better without Derrick available?
come on wendy, kirk sucks, he has been downhill since 2007
what ever happened to him i dont know, but the organization’s blind love for him is unacceptable, he is supposed to be the Captain right? and does he do? SUCK even more, even if he was called to step up, because D-Rose is injured.
Chris Bosh-Chicago Bull
by Juan dela Cruz on Mar 11, 2010 10:11 PM CST up reply actions
Because 6 assists and 1 TO in 27 minutes is just hideous while playing PG most of the night?
You want to be pissed that Kirk isn’t a guy who can carry a lineup of Jannero Pargo, James Johnson, Taj Gibson, and Brad Miller (and their respectively even worse backups) against one of the best teams in the league on the road? Fine. I have a vastly different definition of “sucks.”
Becareful dude the blog is littered with Hinirch and Deng fan clubs.
It’s not their fault they are completely basketball retarded.
Versus being just
completely retarded.
OK I don't know shit about basketball.
by SoulEater7 on Nov. 5, 2009 9:51 PM CST
They went on a 15-1 run and entertained the idea of making a game of it. in the middle of that run, vinny del jizzfucker called a momentum killing timeout and shuffled the only lineup that worked all night.

plus alexander was playing tackle football, so that helps

I remember that.
Joakim on whether he ever tried tennis: "I played a little bit. If anybody on the Bulls wanted to play me, I would kick their ass."
Sad.
It’ sad that people got their hopes up when the Bulls got five games over .500 and made it look like they were a playoff team.
I’m just glad the team has done yet another nosedive under VDN and maybe people will finally see that he is a below average coach (like anyone who is not a Bulls fan), that can’t get the most out of a young team. I don’t wish for anyone to lose their job but damn, VDN is not a good coach, and everyone but Rose should be on the block this offseason.
We got our hopes up
because we didn’t anticipate losing 2/3 out of 5 starters. They were playing good bbal back then. Way, way back then.

Next Bulls-Magic game,
someone needs to cut block Howard.
What Would Charles (Oakley) Do?
We miss you, Tyrus Thomas and Ben Gordon!
you guys are taking that foul way overboard yes it was a foul but it was no where near a fragrant foul the only reason rose got injured was cause he was smaller and he jumps ready high, The foul that alexander did on bass was a worse foul since he jumped on him and made no play for the ball but since bass is big and took the hit nothing was said……
