i wonder if smith would consider talking to the bulls this early
considering they are in the east and im starting to think he might be waiting for a good offer from the western conf. if not, then i think smith will get desperate in the last moment and then the bulls can dive right in.
I’m giving away a digital print of my 8bit Derrick Rose piece for anyone that RT’s and follows my account. Wanted to extend that offer to you fine folks. LINK
SamSmithHoops Sam Smith
Noah holstering his “guns” after making a jumper for 68-47 Bulls. Perhaps not best team to do that against, but it did get a crowd chuckle
I know i'll get my knees chopped off for this, but do you think Rose has a chance to win MVP again this year even though Ledouche is avg nearly 30 pts a game?
His spacings better, he handles his own on D nobody has to over-persue to cover his miscues. I mean, for being a defensive minded coach this must be killin Thibs. I wonder if he’s ONLY starting cuz of the money.
Maybe the loss yesterday was actually a decent thing, Rose looks determined tonight and next time we play those jackasses he is going to play pissed off.
“Yeah you take Boozer contract we’ll take Hedos, we’ll give you Omir or Noah(not havin both), the Bobcats pick, our picks, and a Portillos Italian Beef. DONE
I get extremely pissed when Rose is double teamed near half court and the Bulls can’t score in a 4 on 3 situation. I would be running 4 on 3’s in practice until the Bulls score literally every time.
He’s just been standing under the basket waiting for his guys to pass out of the double team. If he can’t make these simple dunks and lay-ups then it really would be time to amnesty him (if we could, of course.)
That last possession pissed me off. Rose was double teamed BEFORE CROSSING HALF COURT! Noah gets the ball, screws around and then basically resets the offense. We should score on that shit nearly every freakin time! Otherwise, teams will just double Rose. Freakin pathetic.
But yeah, as long as he isn’t going crazy hard during a pointless quarter it’s no big deal if he looks like a bum after playing practically two full games in two days.
His teammates don’t even know what my fucking 7/8 girls know and that’s come to the ball off double teams. Brewer stood with his thumb up his ass waiting for the ball. He has been double teamed at half court and his team can’t convert a 4 on 3 and instead dicks around and gets him the ball back with 10 on the shot clock. Oh ya, and then Thibs helps him out by calling for a high screen which gets him doubled again.
Boozer is clearly the superior offensive player, passer, and has a much much better IQ, and takes shots in the flow of the offense. His defense has shown massive improvement as well.
his situation was def the fault of the cubs FO. He should have never gotten that contract i nthe first place and yet, cubs fans trash him left and right. I know hes past his prime now, but i dont blame him for accepting that contract (thanks alot Hendry)
Of course you can’t blame any player for taking money offered to him. But when you do, you take the responsibility and scrutiny that comes with a contract. You think Pujols has a right to bitch or Fielder now that they have their money when fans want them hitting .300 and bashing lots of RBIs? Boozer doesn’t deserve to be a scapegoat all the time. But I hate seeing a guy who’s paid his amount of money shrink from going into the post. He’s being paid to be the star forward opposite deng. We need him to be a force on both sides. And not just get his numbers shooting jumpers. I don’t think he’s played as bad as some do here. But I do want him moving in the post better and taking up the slack from the injured guys.
But this same comment has been mentioned 100000 times. Its not gonna stop. Just get over it and deal with it. Just like how we deal with JBJ rather having Wall than Rose.
He just happened to come across the perfect coach for him especially defensively for Thibs. Plus, Deng is by far our best defensive player and Thibs maybe most trusted player on the court next to Rose (maybe over).
Boozer…..not so much. But like I said, I’m neither here nor there.
I think we all just need to accept that they are both valuable, but they have limitations. The Bulls will probably need them both to perform in the playoffs when called upon.
Taj is the better player because defense matters as well. He’s the better player. But you keep up the valiant defense of Boozer. That train is getting light and lighter
It does hurt a lot to have to choose between offense and defense.
Taj of course isn’t the offensive player Boozer is. In crunch time it hurts a lot to have to insert Taj to clamp down. big numbers offensively against sub par teams doesn’t change that.
The longer this lasts the more irritated his teammates will get. The media won’t let it lay, it’s too juicy a story. I can just imagine the situation if he’s still on the Magic come playoff time and he’s counting on those guys going to war with him.
on the wizards press defense
bq. : “I think it just made us more aggressive and got the ball out of his hands. Once they got him back the ball, there were just eight, nine seconds on the shot clock, and it’s kind of easy to stop him then because he can’t really kick it out to no shooters. You give him a full clock and he can pick you apart”
On whether it’s hard to manage the game like Rose can:
bq. “It’s not hard when you got guys like Kyle Korver that can make shots and you can run him off down screens, and you got a guy like Carlos Boozer that can pick and pop. When Luol Deng’s in, you have a guy who you can run plays for, make shots and create his own shots. It’s kind of easy.”
I'm beginning to think you guys defend Boozer just for the fun of it and to be contrarions
It’s over OK. The defense of Boozer and sifting through his numbers and good games is a waste of time. Here’s a thought… If you have to sift through a player’s numbers to make an argument to why he doesn’t suck and when he plays well and if you can literally remember the good games he has by memory, then he’s not that good. Seriously he’s not.
He’s starting because of his contract. Bosh is playing because he’s the most important player on his team. Miami can’t function at all in the halfcourt without Bosh. The Bulls are quite possibly a better team without Boozer.
His offensive numbers also are a reason he plays at least. Perhaps not starting, I can’t be sure. It’s never easy , however, to replace his 15 pts consistently.
Got a Lucas look-a-like behind Stacey and Neil

They should trade him for the best deal
regardless of team or situation. Go to the Bulls right now and ask for Noah and Taj and picks
Dils - January 30, 2012
Imo
Even that is the best deal. It’s better than fucking Bynum since we have the charlotte pick and more picks
T.Moore - January 30, 2012

No

A chance? Sure.

Doesnt matter tho, only thing that matters in the playoffs imo

Nope
It’ll be LeBitch or Durant. I think Durant if they get the best record
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
No it's either Lebron or Durant
But by the time the year is over, Rose may deserve it anyway

He really is

His spacings better, he handles his own on D nobody has to over-persue to cover his miscues. I mean, for being a defensive minded coach this must be killin Thibs. I wonder if he’s ONLY starting cuz of the money.

PHI only needs 58 to beat ORL ?????
Is Howard trolling the Magic, or is it the other way around??
I mean, Jeez……
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
i think its his team
nelson is actually trollin him hard. Watch him play and ull realize why howard is pissed.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012

Taj should have passed that to Jimmy
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
Waittt a minute...
was ESPN way off when it showed the magic had 39 points with 4 minutes left in the third?
ChicagoSizzle - January 30, 2012
nope.
Brigade17 - January 30, 2012
they are shooting 31% as a team
Brigade17 - January 30, 2012
Sixers play good D and Bulls face them Wedneday in Philly....interesting
MCREW - January 30, 2012
And that Orlando gave up probably
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
apparently ESPN is just failing hard..
theyre still in the 4th quarter haha
ChicagoSizzle - January 30, 2012
Hopefully the bench extends the lead
don’t Rose playing in the 4th. Although for selfish reasons, I’d like Rose to get a couple more assists.
chicity773 - January 30, 2012
going to watch Alcatraz in a couple minutes fellas, hope we finish the game injury free.
see ya.
rsikes - January 30, 2012
How is it?
Got em DVRd havent started yet
KCinIL - January 30, 2012

been awhile since I’ve had a show I regularly watch.
Last ones were 24 and Prison Break.
rsikes - January 30, 2012
Good, I gotta check em out
So tired of these shit shows. I wanna watch “The River” when it comes on but I gotta feeling it’s gonna be terrible
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
yea it could be ok, but it could be cheesy.
guess we’ll see.
rsikes - January 30, 2012
The wizards offense...
The term “rec league” comes to mind
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
CJ really blowing hard tonight.

Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
lol..yup
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
CJ shouldn't even be playing
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
thing is, watson does well when hes starting over rose or gettin more mins
OR, if hes playing alongside D Rose as the SG.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Oh i hear ya
I just mean I think he’s still pretty banged up. And now Rose back in, jesus
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
true, but i think thibs really is tired of watching lucas play
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
ok why did thibs take out butler there
that would have been good experience
serbstream - January 30, 2012
if they tie you up and you lose the jump ball, is it a TO?

good question but i had to google it

serbstream - January 30, 2012

Basketball Smurf - January 30, 2012

Saukrates - January 30, 2012

KCinIL - January 30, 2012
no lol..
its 48-64 with 6:38 remaining according to SI.com
ChicagoSizzle - January 30, 2012
Nevermind
64-49 midway in the 4th
KCinIL - January 30, 2012

Nick Young is a headcase
was he celebrating after the 3?
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
I don't think Washington quite understands what NBA defense is supposed to be like.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Boozer would be a perfect fit
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
Wiz showing why they suck. You gotta concentrate during a run.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 30, 2012
poor wall
I can’t believe this team beat the bobcats twice
Osaka - January 30, 2012
I would hate to be a Wizards fan
There’s pretty much no one on that team I would like to root for.
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
I wouldn't mind Booker on our team
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
young maybe?
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Jo landed on his funny bone.
That shit HURTS
T.Moore - January 30, 2012

Osaka - January 30, 2012
Noah: No Lob for you. Next!!!!
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
Wiz has a bunch of players that can create their own shot
they have too much actually and no teamwork and no IQ. I wish they just give us Nick Young or Jordan Crawford and come off the bench for us

Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
that was a terrible sequence by boozer
missed the pass over his shoulder, didn’t box out, stupid foul
Basketball Smurf - January 30, 2012
Grab that shit Booze, geez.
No scream, he doesn’t have power without it.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 30, 2012
That was the worst full-court press I've ever seen.
It took the Bulls 2 seconds to get it to past half court and they didn’t even have to dribble.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Come on DRose, you havent scored in the 4th and
the Wizards have turned this into a game. LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!
dakoose - January 30, 2012
2 words: Double Team
Brigade17 - January 30, 2012
Great
Here comes a heartattack game
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
What. the. fuck. is happening?
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
Bulls going through the motions and Boozer taking the day off apparently
MCREW - January 30, 2012
Wow, push in the back on Noah
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
You saw that too.
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
(I mean McGee pushed Noah for the offensive board
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
We know.
It was very obvious too.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
not the first time he's done it either
Jaina - January 30, 2012
Booker>Boozer
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
rose needs to remember that jordan played here
if he says hes going to go crazy we’re expecting 60 points
serbstream - January 30, 2012
Rose is outta gas
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
No, he isn't.
Jeez.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
I think he is
Banged around all game too. Barely fuckin rested.
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
He's fine
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
If double teamed=outta gas
Then Rose is running on empty
Saukrates - January 30, 2012
He's outta teammates that can dribble
trig - January 30, 2012
booz should be schooling these kids
I know he short but that’s ur job bro

Booz was fouled there
But cool
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
absolutely
Jaina - January 30, 2012
Can we like, not let them score the rest of the fourth?
And have Rose go 5-5?

Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
*fists pumps to deng's sprint commercial*
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
Alright Deng, suit up!
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
Put CJ in there right now.
Make them pay for the 2xteam with another ballhandler.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Good call
they are trapping rose every possession
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
need two ball handlers
with no rip and deng, need a combo of watson and rose
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Defense is shit this quarter.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Wiz hitting jumpers
not much else
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
Yea...Bulls haven't hit the boards hard enough, but Wiz just hitting some jays really.
bleigh82 - January 30, 2012
Well thibs is great in reading plays and stopping it
Wiz doesn’t have any. They just run random stuff
trig - January 30, 2012
Normally the Generals would have given up by now
we bring out the best in everyone…
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
can the wizards please stop getting O boards
thanks
jesus christos - January 30, 2012
Thank you
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
Ugh
I get extremely pissed when Rose is double teamed near half court and the Bulls can’t score in a 4 on 3 situation. I would be running 4 on 3’s in practice until the Bulls score literally every time.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
What practice?
Tough to get them in with the schedule. But you’re right, its easy money right there.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Just woke up, how're the Bulls?
cowraiser - January 30, 2012
Good, great, then shit, now we're back to good
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
Boozer just woke up too
MCREW - January 30, 2012
Rose GOIN HAM.
RED_BULL - January 30, 2012
That's funny because Boozer just woke up too.
Dils - January 30, 2012
KORVER....With the Hot Sauce.
RED_BULL - January 30, 2012
Bulls struggling without Lucas
trig - January 30, 2012
Jimmy with 12 minutes whats up with that
cowraiser - January 30, 2012
Booz woke up in the 4th
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
Nope.
He’s just been standing under the basket waiting for his guys to pass out of the double team. If he can’t make these simple dunks and lay-ups then it really would be time to amnesty him (if we could, of course.)
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Well, aside from that jumper.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
truth
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Even Tyrus Thomas could have finished those shots
MCREW - January 30, 2012
Boozer showing up in 4th!
windycitywarrior - January 30, 2012
The irony is that a few dunks got him going and then he hit the J.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Gotta wonder how Rose would fare at the 2G spot
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
EEEEWWW
RED_BULL - January 30, 2012
bulls bench has 8 pts, 8 rbs, 7 tos

Since the airball?
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
there ya go boozy!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Orlando collapsing again
Barely makin it to 60
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
I bet Dwight cares about Wee uning now.
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
When you don't double Howard and make him hit free throws,
you beat the Magic.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
I mean seriously
That last possession pissed me off. Rose was double teamed BEFORE CROSSING HALF COURT! Noah gets the ball, screws around and then basically resets the offense. We should score on that shit nearly every freakin time! Otherwise, teams will just double Rose. Freakin pathetic.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
Yep
That’s what he has to deal with. Amazing. Hell even Jordan had Pippen who could handle the ball.
Dils - January 30, 2012
Noah's passing is overrated.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Hes a nice passing big
Hows that overrated
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
Passing well tonight
chicity773 - January 30, 2012
It's not his passing that's overrated
It’s his decision making. He needs to take two big dribbles in in that situation and force the d to commit.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
Nah he's the best passing big man in the league I think
It may be underrated
Dils - January 30, 2012
Gasol brothers all day
dakoose - January 30, 2012
oh, how would i love to have marc gasol o nthis team
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
You mispelled underrated

noah should start taking 3s

a tornado from 3 might cause some rough winds
serbstream - January 30, 2012
WTF Brew
chicity773 - January 30, 2012
Brewer has been playing kinda shitty since Deng went out
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
Another pathetic possession.
WTF is Brewer standing in the corner for? Cut to the basket!
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
One thing of note
Noah and Boozer are starting to really be able to play together. Noah’s assists totals in the last 5 games are 4, 3, 4, 4 and right now 6.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Oh, and Jo has 5 straight double doubles.
I think he’s going to be just fine.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012

Letting the Wizards sloppy play rub off on them
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012

Not a good look tho

horrible that rose has to play 40 mins against washington
Osaka - January 30, 2012

JustAnotherFan - January 30, 2012
This shows why we need Dwight. Double Rose and who steps up? No one...
Brigade17 - January 30, 2012
Missing Deng
JustAnotherFan - January 30, 2012

T.Moore - January 30, 2012
bab stepped up!
we are the sixth man
serbstream - January 30, 2012
Out of all the games that would show this
…a blowout against the Wizards?
Scribbz - January 30, 2012
what on earth would Howard even do in that situation
At least find a reasonable time to try to get your point across.
MartyMondays - January 30, 2012 via mobile
Thibs should put CJ in Brew's place
JustAnotherFan - January 30, 2012
Noah the running back

Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
lol flop flop flopping

Rip would have helped in this game
He needs to be the one getting the ball off the Rose double teams.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
and no deng!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
If that was Wade or Lebron, Noah would be called for an offensive foul
MCREW - January 30, 2012
Does someone have to say this every game?
Stacey_Is_King - January 30, 2012
Yes
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012

the last quarter has been terrible
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
WHY ISN"T ANYONE TRYING TO GET UNDER THE BASKET?
windycitywarrior - January 30, 2012
Jesus, Rose has been putrid this quarter.
Really lazy passing. Great game, rough fourth quarter for him.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
In a game like this
does it really matter?
Scribbz - January 30, 2012
Nah.
You’re right, he’s just dicking around out there. Probably better he doesn’t hurt himself or something.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
I agree though, he's looked pretty sucky.
But yeah, as long as he isn’t going crazy hard during a pointless quarter it’s no big deal if he looks like a bum after playing practically two full games in two days.
Scribbz - January 30, 2012
He can't drive
Can’t do much with those traps
windycitywarrior - January 30, 2012
41mins?
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
They put the whole team on him
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
I get the not scoring part, but the terrible passing is pretty bad.
dakoose - January 30, 2012
Hard to pass
When McGee in your face at times
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
Lol
It’s called a trap with your Center being your 2nd best ballhandler. Sheeesh
Dils - January 30, 2012
I have no problem with giving the ball up,
but what’s with the bad and lazy passes?
dakoose - January 30, 2012
It's because his man a 7 footer are in his face
Rose is 6’3 barely you know.
Dils - January 30, 2012
*and a 7 footer
Dils - January 30, 2012
watch the replay and learn how to play basketball
Brewer stood and waited for the pass to hit him in the hands. Fuckin idiot.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
Rose tired man
MCREW - January 30, 2012
WTF DO YOU WANT HIM TO DO!
His teammates don’t even know what my fucking 7/8 girls know and that’s come to the ball off double teams. Brewer stood with his thumb up his ass waiting for the ball. He has been double teamed at half court and his team can’t convert a 4 on 3 and instead dicks around and gets him the ball back with 10 on the shot clock. Oh ya, and then Thibs helps him out by calling for a high screen which gets him doubled again.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
double teams make me grind my teeth....

Yeah they do
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
no break for rose
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
were people actually worried we were going to blow this?
i had said to my husband that i would only think we could lose if they came within 2 in the last 30 seconds.
Jaina - January 30, 2012
I wasn't worried at all
Because its teh fucking wizards, they’re too stupid
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
this is what i'm saying
i just think the reactions here are crazy lol. this game was never threatened.
Jaina - January 30, 2012
When teams with better personel use the same strategy, then they'll be in trouble
But yeah, its the wizards.
windycitywarrior - January 30, 2012
I wasn't.
chicity773 - January 30, 2012
i was worried john lucas was going to get jumped over again
but alas he made it through unscathed
serbstream - January 30, 2012
bench never got back in
8 pts, 8 rbs, 3 ast, 7 tos, 2-10 from the field, 4-8 from the line. bad
Osaka - January 30, 2012
Motherfucker
Bulls better be running 4 on 3s in fucking warmups. Jesus.
DRoseO1 - January 30, 2012
Noah nearly triple doubles.
14 pts, 13 rbnds, 7 ast.
Saukrates - January 30, 2012
KK shot 12 3s
Osaka - January 30, 2012
So, who will be better next year after Dwight leaves Orlando?
Washington or the Magic?
Osaka - January 30, 2012
magic
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Magic are Tragic, but the Generals...
…Suck ass. A lot.
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
Generals suck Genitals?
BULLieving in Miami - January 30, 2012
I rec'd, but only cuz I missed that one..
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
Korver played 45mns!!
Dayum!!!
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
jus shows how bad our injury situation is
fuck!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Not surprised.
He played well all game too. Gotta say that Korver can now be considered a ‘good’ defender.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Great
He’ll be the next one injured
KCinIL - January 30, 2012
So, I guess Noah finally played himself into shape?
It’ssad that he didnt come into the season ready to go tho
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
We're 18 and 4 right?
Meh
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
You're giving him a pass?
I’m a fan of his but I don’t agree with that
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
looks like rose is finally warming up
34, 34, and 35. too bad he wasn’t ready to start the season
…
Osaka - January 30, 2012
Are you really comparing Rose' production to Noahs?
…..
………..
……………………….
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
no, i was being facetious
…or was i
Osaka - January 30, 2012
his point is alot of players came in struggling
form players like rose, paul, williams etc. You can check the gamelog and see the number of players who are struggling this yr,
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
It'snot the first time he's done this
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
wasnt he off to a solid start last yr?
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
yes
16 and 13 through the first 15 games
Osaka - January 30, 2012
also
12 and 12 through the first 15 games the year before that
Osaka - January 30, 2012
yeah, so idk why people say hes always off to a slow start
i know he can be on and off during the season but for the most part hes known to be decent beginning of the season
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
I don't know what this means.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
We're 18-4
As long as he comes back to form…Meh
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
Besides in this shortened season it's bound to happen
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
18-5
rsikes - January 30, 2012
are you surprised?
BULLieving in Miami - January 30, 2012
he needs to stop that shyt
That’s the one thing that I hated about shaq and it bit him in his ass alot
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
yeah, bit him in the ass a lot
good thing he got those 4 championships first…
BULLieving in Miami - January 30, 2012
he shoulda had more! lol
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
i mean, he wasnt theo nly one outta shape
so many players came outta shape. For some players it takes time to get into season-mode shape.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Hell considering how many people aren't playing
because of injury, I’ll take it. All I heard about was how fit Hamilton was and this dude keeps pulling his groin
Dils - January 30, 2012
sigh...being fit as nothing to do with the groin
its just one of those injuries that can happen to anyone.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Well it's happened to him
I’m just saying that I’m not going to worry about Noah having to play himself into shape because at least he’s able to be on the court
Dils - January 30, 2012
yeah, its been bad luck for rip so far this season
jus gotta wait till the all star break till everyone can finally heal up.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
And yes, WCIU>>> NBATV
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
WCIU>ESPN
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
this really irks me that rose played so mich
Let lucas or watson play those last minutes…even if the wiz was making a push…its the wiz!
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
its wiz khalifa!
lexmarklover - January 30, 2012
or just let jo play point center
Osaka - January 30, 2012
jo for 3!
Prevenge - January 30, 2012
Come on, Hornets!!!
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
that gave me a chuckle
Saukrates - January 30, 2012
no heat starter will play 30 mins tonight at this rate
Osaka - January 30, 2012
36-19... yikes
Jaina - January 30, 2012
who is this gustavo ayon guy?
Osaka - January 30, 2012
Top 10 in the league in PER!!!!!
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
Ryan Anderson had 20 boards today.
11 offensive.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
JaVale McGee had 6 offensive boards today.
but then, he is offensive.
Osaka - January 30, 2012
by pushing off on our guys
Jaina - January 30, 2012
Korver getting Deng minutes
Holy crap. And 5 -12 is pretty good from 3.
jrobulls - January 30, 2012
most of his shots were wide open too
he should have made more lol
Jaina - January 30, 2012
Two games in a row with 10 + free throws for Derrick...
maybe three. Did he have a bunch against the Bucks?
bleigh82 - January 30, 2012
6-10 against the Bucks.
Dr. Handsome, D.D.S. - January 30, 2012
yes, he had 10
Jaina - January 30, 2012
Can we stop the Taj>Boozer stuff now?
Boozer is clearly the superior offensive player, passer, and has a much much better IQ, and takes shots in the flow of the offense. His defense has shown massive improvement as well.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
meh, i dont think itll stop dude
for what hes getting paid, he needs t perform near or at all star level.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
What's all star level in your mind?
It’s a serious question, too, I’m not trying to be snarky.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
well, consistent production ranging 16-18 ppg and 10 rbds per game
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
17.7 and 10.2 per 36 for Booz.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
sorry, forgot to add on i think majority of the guys here want him to do that consistently against the good teams
the teams with the decent frontcourt like the miami heat…
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
ok
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
yeah, i mean, if he was getting paid noahs money, he wouldnt be criticized as much he is right now
but hes getting paid 17 mill a yr…so, the expectations are high.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
But that's not really his fault...
Shouldn’t that criticism go straight to the org?
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
yeah, but then again, at that time we had to spend that money somewhere
bosh was off the market as well the other choices for pf. Im sure if paxson had to do it again and bosh was still there, he would have gotten bosh.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
so i guess u can say boozer is overpaid but its neither his fault not the FO
its LeBrons and Bosh’s fault! FUCK THE HEAT!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Yeah, Bosh is a better player.
But I still don’t see why that makes Boozer a dart board.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
well, lets bring up soriano from our beloved cubs
his situation was def the fault of the cubs FO. He should have never gotten that contract i nthe first place and yet, cubs fans trash him left and right. I know hes past his prime now, but i dont blame him for accepting that contract (thanks alot Hendry)
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
The thing with Soriano is a lot of it appears to be a lack of hustle/caring...
It’s not that with Boozer.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
well, how bout fukudome
ill say hes another fine example of an overpaid player who does hustle, but jus wasnt worth the contract.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
It's true, but still not really fair to the player.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
its just one of those common things u see in all fanbases (esp the major market fanbases)
whether ur a cubs fan, yankees fan, lakers fan, knicks fan and so on and so forth…every team is gonna have their own so-called “boozer” type player.
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Dunno about that.
Of course you can’t blame any player for taking money offered to him. But when you do, you take the responsibility and scrutiny that comes with a contract. You think Pujols has a right to bitch or Fielder now that they have their money when fans want them hitting .300 and bashing lots of RBIs? Boozer doesn’t deserve to be a scapegoat all the time. But I hate seeing a guy who’s paid his amount of money shrink from going into the post. He’s being paid to be the star forward opposite deng. We need him to be a force on both sides. And not just get his numbers shooting jumpers. I don’t think he’s played as bad as some do here. But I do want him moving in the post better and taking up the slack from the injured guys.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 31, 2012
plus, i think majority of the fans on this site want him to do well against one team
that one team that ruined our summer…THE MIAMI CHEAT!!!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Shitstorm in 3..2..
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
BOOZER SUCKS!!! HE HAS NO LIFT!!!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
Not that I'm on either side of the argument
But this same comment has been mentioned 100000 times. Its not gonna stop. Just get over it and deal with it. Just like how we deal with JBJ rather having Wall than Rose.
Saukrates - January 30, 2012
wtf?! rofl! are you serious? say aint so!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
I did a similar thing with Deng.
Look at the respect he gets now.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
Don't take the credit for that
He just happened to come across the perfect coach for him especially defensively for Thibs. Plus, Deng is by far our best defensive player and Thibs maybe most trusted player on the court next to Rose (maybe over).
Boozer…..not so much. But like I said, I’m neither here nor there.
Saukrates - January 30, 2012
Deng was subject to waaaay too much criticism here.
As is Boozer.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
well booz can make that side layup taj failed a couple times tonight
And taj can dunk and booz can’t..so ya
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
he has no lift!!!
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
boozer dunked like 3 times tonight..
Jaina - January 30, 2012
get out!!!!
Belize - January 30, 2012 via mobile
"Booz had no dunks"
Prevenge - January 31, 2012
After yesterday's performance...
Nope.
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
I don't think this is so difficult.
There are teams and situations where it will be more valuable to have Taj on the floor…same for Booz. We just all need to live with that already.
bleigh82 - January 30, 2012
I'm not the one you have to tell that to...
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
Wasn't meant directly at you.
I think we all just need to accept that they are both valuable, but they have limitations. The Bulls will probably need them both to perform in the playoffs when called upon.
bleigh82 - January 30, 2012
True dat.
wrigleyrocker12 - January 30, 2012
Nah. We'll keep saying it because it's true
Taj is the better player because defense matters as well. He’s the better player. But you keep up the valiant defense of Boozer. That train is getting light and lighter
Dils - January 30, 2012
It does hurt a lot to have to choose between offense and defense.
Taj of course isn’t the offensive player Boozer is. In crunch time it hurts a lot to have to insert Taj to clamp down. big numbers offensively against sub par teams doesn’t change that.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 31, 2012
Vote Bulls for ASG, fuck the heat
and I’m out
Big illinoize - January 30, 2012
uh-oh, Rose is recruiting :)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/ct-spt-0131-bulls-bits—20120131,0,5239288.story
Geo4MVP - January 30, 2012
no body except maybe all of the other Magic players
mjtig - January 30, 2012
True dat.
The longer this lasts the more irritated his teammates will get. The media won’t let it lay, it’s too juicy a story. I can just imagine the situation if he’s still on the Magic come playoff time and he’s counting on those guys going to war with him.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 31, 2012
john wall
on the wizards press defense
bq. : “I think it just made us more aggressive and got the ball out of his hands. Once they got him back the ball, there were just eight, nine seconds on the shot clock, and it’s kind of easy to stop him then because he can’t really kick it out to no shooters. You give him a full clock and he can pick you apart”
On whether it’s hard to manage the game like Rose can:
bq. “It’s not hard when you got guys like Kyle Korver that can make shots and you can run him off down screens, and you got a guy like Carlos Boozer that can pick and pop. When Luol Deng’s in, you have a guy who you can run plays for, make shots and create his own shots. It’s kind of easy.”
piccolomair - January 30, 2012
awww
One thing about Rose is even if he does get a bit too cheesy with his post game bs, at least he doesn’t make excuses for himself.
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
Wall is a hater
T.Moore - January 30, 2012
that is what is Wall said
this is what he is thinking -
Basketball Smurf - January 30, 2012
I LOL"d
I was thinking exactly your first comment for awhile now. Rose coasted most of the last quarter. Not that I blame him. Good stuff here.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 31, 2012
i didnt know it was possible to be both right and wrong simultaneously.
TheMoon - January 30, 2012
For all those who decided Bosh is way better than Boozer based on Sunday's game,
note their respective lines tonight:
Bosh vs. the Hornets: 5-12 FG | 2-2 FT | 3 REB | 0 AST | 12 PTS | +1
Boozer vs. the Wizards: 9-16 FG / 0-2 FT / 8 REB / 1 AST / 18 PTS / +11
I know that doesn’t prove anything either, because one game does not prove anything.
Tim S. - January 30, 2012
Even if you erased yesterdays game completely from your memory
There is not a GM in the league that pick Boozer over Bosh.
The Boozer protectors defend harder than Carlos ever will.
RogersPark Kris - January 30, 2012
worst argument ever
Basketball Smurf - January 30, 2012
I'm beginning to think you guys defend Boozer just for the fun of it and to be contrarions
It’s over OK. The defense of Boozer and sifting through his numbers and good games is a waste of time. Here’s a thought… If you have to sift through a player’s numbers to make an argument to why he doesn’t suck and when he plays well and if you can literally remember the good games he has by memory, then he’s not that good. Seriously he’s not.
He’s starting because of his contract. Bosh is playing because he’s the most important player on his team. Miami can’t function at all in the halfcourt without Bosh. The Bulls are quite possibly a better team without Boozer.
Dils - January 30, 2012
To be fair,
His offensive numbers also are a reason he plays at least. Perhaps not starting, I can’t be sure. It’s never easy , however, to replace his 15 pts consistently.
Sandberg's evil twin - January 31, 2012
no one came to that decision based on sunday's game, because it was already obvious to anyone with eyes.
TheMoon - January 30, 2012
Why post it then?
chicity773 - January 31, 2012
Man some dunks are worth more than 2 points
Blake just had the dunk of the decade!!!
Dils - January 30, 2012
