BOOZER YELLING
guys gals fellaz fellaz

WTF JUST HAPPENED TO ROSE???? I’m losing it

back spasms
how bad?

Fuck man…back is no good..that’s what messed me up in d marines

its not that bad, it can be handeled if done early

and besides, hes 23, he can def heal with sufficient res.t Trust me, i had back spasms too. I am far from ebing an athlete and I recovered after 1 week. I got injured while doing squats.

yeah, hell be alright if he rests for couple of nights

its not that big of an injury, def not on par with the toe injury (kncok on wood)

eh, We're up 29. who needs him?
lol
I hope Derrick gets

plenty of rest so his back doesn’t bother him all season long.

Dwight Howard is not going to this trainwreck
I can't see it
To be fair

half their team is injured. They aren’t as bad as they’re playing right now.

He’s still not going there though.

I hear ya

But even full strength they’re still a trainwreck lol

Boozers been cut!

Its go time!

can we get jimmy some playing time?

xD

Joakim Corzine
picking up where we left off, huh...

thats always the disappointment with new threads. all the comedic gems get left behind in obscurity

Joakim Olajuwon
fail

Bulls bigs only, lol

i've always wondered if Jordan's Bulls could beat Hakeem's Rockets if they would've met in the Finals
Hakeem would've destroyed that C trio
Dont sleep on Chief Parrish or Bison Dele
Ha

I’m talkin Lu, Bill, and Will

Let me answer that for you ,

Yes.

i'd like to think so and would never doubt MJ

but that was a damn good team and they never had to face a center of that caliber in the Finals. i think it woulda been an epic matchup.

I know this is nit-pickin

But for the love of god can I PLEASE see Noah and Asik on the floor at the same time, just ONCE?!

i concur, this is the perfect chance for thibs to experiment lineups!
I honestly dont think they've been on the court together at all this year

Just try it, just in case somethin happens, injury, major foul trouble, someone gets tossed, anything!

Thibs worried if Luol doesn't play 40 min, we might not win by 30.
Lol, whwnever Jared Jeffries touches the ball

the whole MSG groans.

Jeremy Lin is a beast!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Lu is playing because...
Hhmmmm...

Notice Comcast rarely shows the Luvabulls?

Do they travel with them?
No im talking when they are home
They usually show em I think

Even if they show em every other play, it’ll still be never enough in my eyes

Meanwhile, Kobe Bryant is 0-7 in the 4th quarter

so naturally the Lakers are losing.

presented by: metta big teeth!
You just had to say somethin!
You're welcome
he is so fricking selfish with the ball

its a travesty. Mike Brown has no control

dumb taj

saw that coming a mile away

Nets are coming back

only down by 24 now

lol tah dum dum dum dum
Mandatory Taj Travel later than expected
damn it, taj is such a sloppy player
And that's why

He’s not a starting PF…(here comes people misunderstanding thinking that im defending Booz, cause im not…)

I disagree
look at last yr record with taj starting...
Looking at Boozer give up way more points than he scores is all the proof i need

as to who should start.

Not to mention his poor offensive outputs in big games where the Bulls need him the most.

ok, well, im not going to start this argument over again, haha

well just agree to disagree :)

its true though, there is nothing good bout taj on offense, lmao.
he has dunks and stuff
They pronounced Thibodeau wrong again

everyone drink

How's Keith Bogans doing? Does he look solid?
Bulls are hanging on against the Bogans offensive onslaught
That's a foul

Fuck you

This is bullshit.

Derrick never gets these fucking calls.

where was the foul???
Taj needs a nap
D Rose's back was stiff before this game.

Hopefully it isn’t that bad of an injury. Backs can be so crippling. Let’s rest him until the next big game on Sunday against the Celts.

Fuck 17-4 run
Now if they do it again

they’re still losing

i'm sure if the bulls do that again

thibs will have them running laps around the jersey shore non stop.

Lu wil be playing the entire 4th now
How's Deng's wrist
Hangin on by a thread....get it =)
If it's bothering him

he’s not showing it.

We just love letting teams creep back in

Fuckin 30 point lead to 11

OK

Let’s not blow this boys.

Fuck rose stats are screwed
rose don't care about no triple doubles.
Everyone in NY going nuts about Jeremy Lin.

The kid is just another end of roster bum in this league. The Lin craziness won’t last long.

Taiwanese John Lucas?
He ain't too bad

Better than the shit they been runnin out there

He's not an end of roster bum

he’s not great but he’s like an actual PG who knows how to pass to people. Like, a good second/third stringer.

For the last two years,

he’s been a cant-make-a-roster bum, so I’ll wait a while before I think he’s anything more than an end of the roster bum.

His value in NY's super-magnified

because they don’t have anyone else who knows how to pass. But yeah, he might flame out, who knows

baron davis?
injured forever
damn, i miss the fat bearded assassin
He's a great player when healthy and motivated

hopefully he gets back. Who knows, the Knicks could even be a weird threat in the playoffs if he gets back by then …

but right now the Knicks are beating the Jazz without Carmelo and with Chandler in foul trouble, so.

no stoudemire either

sad about his brother…

Yeah. ...

Really horrific. :/

speaking of, he has like 5 billion TO's
Turkish STrenth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Atlanta getting Nashed.
SHEEK ignores your attempt at a hard foul
that was fucking hilarious.
That was a Barney hug
Refs...Must...make...game...interesting!
CJ is at 14-8-6, chance at a triple double
Can we take the ball to the fuckin basket
taj is killing me right now
he should start over boozer!!!

GAH!!! (rambles incoherent sentences about gibson greatness)

Wow

4 fuckin point play right now

toe on the line
no? bogans foot was on the line?
Toe looks like on the line
Bogans 3 AND 1

Dear God, the prophecy is coming true!!!

nah, jus 2 and 1
we need a defensive stopper on Bogans

Jimmmmmmmeeeee

Tap on the head

FOUL!!

lol nets has 4 of 12 williams in the NBA

we could’ve challenged them with 3 butlers

How come no Jimmy.
Offensive foul on Kris Kardashian
Dont flop, CJ- you won't get that call vs DWill
6pt killa!
For the luv of Xenu, put the bench in....fhrbhffrucnrjcedkjcefijncefijeijcfceij
when Taj fouls out they'll have to put in Scal
jeeze Taj
taj is the best!

he should play 48 mins a game

I don't hate him.

He has had better games. Happens to all players on this team.

still, i think with rose out, you need booz to play as much as possible

this is limited on offense with their fearless leader.

booz had to go and get stitches

he got elbowed in the face… relax lol

oh, im not talking bout this game at all

im talking about in general. People always shit on booz and say start taj…fuck that, we need booz to start and his offense is def needed with rose out.

We are lucky Boozer

is playing well tonight. That is not always the case is it?

hes inconsistent, but you have to play with the best options out there (esp when it comes ot offense)

this team is very defense oriented and our bench is composed of mainly DEFENSIVE SPECIALISTS, not scoring specialists.

Like I said he's having

a good night. If he wasn’t his ass would be on the bench like it has when he’s not playing well.

thats fine, if hes playing liek trash, bench him

but starting taj would never make sense. Taj offensive is the analogy to boozers defense.

this is what i keep saying.

start Taj and we’re back to 2010 Bulls.

yeah, and this isnt about boozer not playing up to his contract

its about playing to the best options. Of course, i would love boozer to take a salary cut, but that will never happen. People need to get over their hatred and realize hell never reach the common booz haters expectations, but at the same time he should absolutely always start over taj.

I never said Taj should start.
oh, im not nit picking people here sue

I have read multiple posts about people wanting for taj to start and that needs to stop, lol.

Kind of a weak foul called on Taj
just noticed...

doesn’t d-will and bogans both have a bull tattoo on their right shoulders?

not one of tajs better games...
Taj is doing his best to get benched

hard hat wants to rest

... Boozer is checking back in? What?!?
The Nets gave up and Thibs is still putting Booz back in
Nets pulling the starters- Surrender
GET BACK ON THE BENCH BOOZ!

Don’t listen to the penguin!

White Mamba Time
scal chant in nj. hmm.
rest the starters!!!!!!!!!!
is anyone else slightly concerned by Taj's FT% this year?

he’s bricking em badly these days, 60% (career 65%)

but its taj!

lets just start him 48 mins a game! fuck boozer!

The part of SCAL will be played by Boozer tonight
c'mon boozer catch it.
Dislike not playin the Jimmy legs
Thibs resting Rose??
rose is out

back spasms

that's fine right?

rest him til celtics game

he better play against the celtics

i’m going!

Sit Lu- time for Jimmy
This is cool though
i bet Scan and Jimmy would dominate New Jersey Williams
Can Thibs Deng the fuck out of the game now.
Nets wave white flag...Thibs says 'fuck that! Keep pouring it on'!
Take no prisoners!! Scorch the Earth!!
Why doesn't Thibs rest his players. The fuck
No kidding.

The starters should be sitting.

Im not going to whine about Thibs

Just no…

WTF is Avery smoking

Calling all these TO’s.

the general is planning a comeback

his masterplan is going to activate

i'm surprised he still has a job
SHEEk and NOAH in at the same time!

This is awesome!

NOAH AND ASIK!!!
Nets should get NO rebounds.. LOL
Wait, was that Jimmy??

and the Mamba??

That lil ginger lol
scal is out of control
Wow, look at SCAL's kid
Bulls fans roll DEEP
I hope Lucas doesn't get stupid and

go all street ball right here.

which he just did... sigh
Just got home

See we have the win in hand thats good, but what happened to Rose?

Traded for dwight
WHITE MAMBA!!!!!
and the fans go wild...
Asik should play point just to mess with them
see thibs? Scal and Jimmy can handle the williams
How dare you foul the scal!
Scal gets more calls than Drose
Apparently

he’s the GBPOAT

fuck you petro
Are they just showin that red head?

Or is that his son?

Thats his daughter
bwahahaha MVP chants
Tell NJ i said fuck you
soo THIS is who Howard wants to play for?

yeah, he can have fun with that.

The curse of the Bogans is broken
I kinda feel bad for him

He played to his max for us and we just shit on him, not that I’m against it though.

not us, its just the FO, lol

the players liekd him alot.

Yeah, he was a big piece of the renouned chemistry of the team.

I know RIP brings in LOT more talent but not sure which is more important. The chemistry would’ve helped a lot even if Bogans was on IR like RIP is now.

talent >>>>>>>>>> chemistry
yup, and this is why im pissed that jr smith is going to the lakers

fuck the lakers!

In all honesty, he got a chance to START for a contender while contributing little

So he should just shut the fuck up and be grateful

So the Bogans Prophecy is false
I forsee many Bogans cultists jumping off of ledges now
No it's not

Bogans scores six or more, Bulls win. It works when Bogans plays for the other team too.

..and now, to watch the Tragic lose
Oh by the way

Get off the Tebow bandwagon and get ready for some Lin bandwagon.

Games like this is why the Knicks are despised.

They’re 9-15, scratching out a victory against a mediocre team and celebrating like hooligans over a regular season game. You’d think they just won the title.

They won

without Stoudamire and Anthony

scal can give you 15,5,5 in a pinch if he got minutes
i could give you that with PT

and I’m 5’9 and have never played organized basketball

triple dub watch for Lin

26pts 8ast 8to

wow lin jagged, he only had one turn over the first half.

but then again they are playing a bench player like 44 minutes damn..

he doesn't even like have a house in NY

day before yesterday he slept over at Landry Fields’ place, lol

he slept on field's couch
JEREMY LIN IS A GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sooo.. now we go after the lin? instead of melo?
we shouldve had him all along

dont know why we have that clown lucas

i agree, we could have kept mike james (bitch!)
9 assits in 9 minutes!! woo!
lin's awesomeness is just driving down melo's price

all is going according to plan

LIN 4 MVP?!!!!!!!!

move over rose, there’s a new kid in town and hes the ALMIGHTY LIN!!!

also we gotta give props to CJ

c’mon bab.

JLIN IS BETTER
watson always does well when he gets time
Toney Douglas must really suck

first Mike Bibby
then Shumpert
and now Lin

only one of those actually plays a point guard the right way
basically this
With all this bitching about the UC crowd that goes on here, the Rose Garden sounds even emptier tonight

so I’m no longer listening to the UC complaints.

usually they are loud
Except when they're playing the best team in the west, apparently
remember, this was discussed multiple times

the UC crowd is LOUD. what you hear on TV is not even the actual sound. The acoustics are very shitty in the UC.

I'm aware of that also

I just think it’s funny how much genuine anger people express at the UC crowd

well, people should know chicago fans are knwon some of the best fans in the US

ESPN rated us the same as boston fans.

So, like, Derrick is broken. And I'm sad...
guinness and porn, my friend
It's back spasms, not a ruptured Achilles.

Sit him for a week and monitor him daily and he’ll be fine.

Yeah, but with the toe and tendinitiis and shit, this is not good

I know it’s not the end of the world by any stretch, but this is not trending in the right direction

your target: david stern
feel u..more reason we gotta win this year man
just the normal wear and tear of a season...

it happens to alot of players. He just needs one game off and hell be back.

well, actually, the schedule is pretty easy.

i would jus wait till the celtics game and then come back, ha.

Agreed

No need for him to play the next two games. Buuuuut, try telling that to Thibs. If he can play next game, 40 minutes it is…

not even try telling that to thibs

try telling it to derrick. dude should have just sat out from the beginning tonight…

yeah, the kid is stubborn as kobe

he needs to be mroe realistic and know his limits.

and there is nothing honorable about playing thru an injury like that

its just plain stupid.

Right

There seems to be some serious priority issues going on with the Bulls’ organization right now. And I’m not exactly sure who to blame it on

Apparently Thibs thinks “erring on the side of caution” is a weak move. Stupid. This bullshit is gonna hurt us.

billups out for season possibly

jr smith to clips maybe?

errr, rumors are lakers might sign jr smith

its on the fanshots section.

not a real report
hence its a rumor
and its false!

boo-yeah! want the bulsl to get jr smith so badly!

Wow, Gallo with an ankle fracture tonight.

And Billups might have torn his Achilles. This schedule was an absolute disaster.

Clips still got Paul, Williams, Bledsoe...theyll be fine
omg, wtf, and melo got injured too

holy shit, this is a nightmare.

If there's one team that can sustain the loss of a pg it's them

Hardly a crushing loss

uhm no?

dont your remember?? vinny needs 3 pg on the court at all times!!!

Yeah, like I said, not good.
KCJHoop K.C Johnson
DRose said back has been bothering him for awhile. Said he’s not flexible and when tendinitis flares in legs, it forces him to compensate.

Sit him. For a while.

the way he contorts his body + toe + knee + damn near 40 min a nite

No bueno

Quotes!!!

“It was tight the whole game,” Rose said. "It was just something where I’ve got to get a massage and stretched the right way and hopefully it will be gone.

“For right now, I’ll be playing next game. It’s nothing like I’m going to be sitting out. I always want to think positive and just try and keep things going that way.”

And For Jerry!

“I think Thibs has been doing a great job with managing us, making sure that we’re getting the rest,” Rose said. “We haven’t been practicing that much and when we do practice, we don’t move around as much. He tells us it’s more like a mental practice, where he challenges us mentally. And knowing what we have to do when we’re going into whatever game we’re playing.”

http://espn.go.com/chicago/nba/story/_/id/7548717/chicago-bulls-derrick-rose-leaves-game-back-spasms

mind chess
(mentally says checkmate bitch)
I hope you're wearing a condom. Coz I got a dirty mind.

Oh wait…

It would be interesting to know how Bulls practices compare to other NBA teams

On the plus side, at least the Bulls coaches have conceded they should practice less given the schedule…

thought this was pretty funny
3. Derrick Rose: Rose may have the best chance to win this just by playing in so many games and minutes. Becasue Tom Thibodeau RESTS NO ONE.
