Bulls 106, Bobcats 94: Luol Deng is in all your lineups, part of all your plays

Omar, the high flying Turkish big bird is becoming a fan favorite here on Bab lately. In his last 3 games covering 40 minutes of pt, he has pulled down 23 rebounds, scored 17 points and has wreaked havoc on opponents trying to penetrate. Can we come up with a name to recognize his sweet play? How about (Turkish Delight) the favorite confection in Istanbul?

Bogans plastered eggs on the faces of all his critics for the 3rd straight game. Not only has he averaged a whopping 9 ppg, he’s converted 9 of 13 from the field including an amazing 8 of 11 from the arc (72,7%). His new found firepower has brought his PER up to 7.82 closing in on Rose’s 22.9. This scoring spree has also inched up his season average to 3.8 ppg. All us detractors can eat his shorts, preferably before he’s worn them in a game. Also if he has been revived as a “rewarmed corpse” doesn’t that make him a zombie?

Stephen Jackson was very gracious in complenting Kyle Korver after he scored 15 points on only 5 shots. “You can’t leave him open. Everybody knows he can’t do anything else but shoot. You have to respect him as a shooter. He can’t really do anything else, but if you let him sit out there and shoot he’s going to kill you.” I’m not sure if Kyle plans to send him a belated valentine after that left handed kudo.

D Rose had one of his Default* games.

• not perfect but always meets or exceeds the necessary standards for adequate performance.

Rumor has it that Luol Deng is auditioning to replace Robert Downy Jr. for the upcoming IRONMAN 3 since the odds are great that RD will soon be joining his old buddy Charley Sheen at their favorite Hollywood Rehab hangout. Deng will also be introducing his new energy drink “The Sudanese Smoothie” which seemingly provides almost unlimited endurance to all who imbibe not matter how scrawny they may appear. The long term effects however have never been investigated and some say excessive use could lead to severe physical breakdowns.

Taj powered his way to get to the line 10 times and again helped shut down the lane with the help of his friend, Asik. His latest ascendance has jumped his PER to 13.46 showing what a great replacement he was for the Bobcats wounded warrior and former Bull, Ty(ranasauras) Thomas who was at 19.74 before his injury. Did I mention T-time made the 2 key plays in the closing seconds that led to both prior Bulls defeats? Expect incoming flak.

Think what the Bulls current record would be if he had only blown out his knee a week earlier. Doesn’t 39-14 sound super, only one torn miniscus away from being tied for the best record in the East. But when the real beast of the East returns on his fresh legs, the favorites of all the ESPN sycophants will be on the outside looking in and the MVP trophy will have a 22 year old flower child’s name engraved on it right after he raises the NBA Championship cup in front of the tearful eyes of the aging Black Mamba who is beginning to see the handwring on the wall and it spells, DERRICK ROSE..

Our other shooting(?) guard C J, failed to score in his 10 minute stint. Maybe he’ll be the next agent zero. Finally a little sugar should be tossed at 2 unsung heros, who although completely rusty from riding the pines so long, the dynamic duo of JJ and Scalabrini came off the bench and preserved the lead in the closing minute. Good Job fellas.

The Spurs can be beat. I think we should start JJ and he should instigate a Karate brawl in the first few minutes of the game with Manu and Parker. If he can get the Spanish fly(er) and the French Tickler to retalitate, Rose and the Bulls will rule.
