Adrian Woj's thoughts on the Bulls...

[houheffna]

and other things...but here is a tidbit...

"The Bulls have needed much more consistent scoring out of Richard Hamilton, and far less telling everyone in the locker room what they need to do to be champions. Several sources say it grated on some Bulls since Hamilton's arrival in December, but eventually subsided."

Celtics' Big Three nearly split at trade deadline - Yahoo! Sports

Lol at the Bulls getting tired of Hamilton's General Patton imitation...

Granted its against Charlotte, but Rip looks to be rounding into shape.

This is when we need him the most and what we brought him in for.

Wish Thibs would let him close games out though.

 

[Axl Rose]

rip has been good recently...hes got his rhythm back

we'll see how he does vs heat....thats the real test

Rip is getting back in shape, so he's good in my book now.

 

[houheffna]

Yeah...I wouldn't be surprised though if Rose sits out remainder of year, or doesn't play until the last game or 2. I didn't care for the Hamilton acquisition...I hope he makes me eat crow.

Hamilton scored 22 points in 24 minutes today. Thats more than Bogans production in 3 games.

I liked his signing, provided that he would be on the court. I was just tired of him not playing more than anything.

Now that he's back, he's showing what he showed early in the season with the ball movement and scoring and play making. All things that the Bulls will need to go deep this year. By deep I mean the Finals.

Also side note: What do you think of Skip Bayless (yeah him, I know) saying that NYK WILL beat the Bulls in the playoffs?

I don't think much of it...he is as close as you get to sports prostitution. He is saying what he has to say to get paid big money. I don't take him seriously and consider him an insult to sports journalism.

If Howard Stern was on the show, he would say some of those things...for shock value. That is what Bayless is, I don't listen to him...period.

Yeah I don't think anything skip blurts out has any impact on a single person. He just says stupid shit to stir the media whores.

Rip is playing better and better I believe he will be the Heat's worst nightmare.

The Bulls will have the best record in the East, and Tom Thibodeau will still sell that locker room as underdogs. He’ll win the Coach of the Year again, and he’ll bring something of a personal ferocity into the playoffs. He isn’t happy the Bulls haven’t addressed a contract extension and his relationship with GM Gar Forman remains tepid, sources said.

In the end, Rose has had one pestering injury after another, and privately the Bulls pray he can stay healthy for the playoffs. They can’t win without his greatness. In the regular season, the Bulls survived 25 games without Rose, because they play so hard every night, so well defensively. That’s a testament to Thibodeau, but it’s an edge that gets negated in the postseason.

Gee, who here has said this?!

Gotta be careful man, last time I used Woj as a reference point, a certain site writer dismissed him as an "opinion writer"...lol

Report: Howard Calls Magic Owner During Game To Say He Won’t Play For Van Gundy

What a bozo.

I'm a Bulls fan first, it'd be awesome to see the Magic win the NBA Title without Howard.

Was it Rami?

If so, Rami should be dismissed as an opinion 'tarder
