Bulls @ Mavericks

No good feelings about this game.

I think Rose will not play tonight. I don´t even talk about Deng and Noah.

Interesting point could be the starting lineup. Bullsmail says we will start with

Pargo
Hinrich
Johnson
Gibson
Miller

but seriously wouldn´t it be better to start Kirk at PG and Murray at SG?

I don´t think Pargo is better than Murray.

Oh and as a sidenote I´ve got a feeling Kirk will score 20+ tonight if he won´t get into foul trouble early. B)

I don't think Pargo is better than playing 4 on 5.

I'd prefer starting Joe Alexander over Pargo at this point. Oh my goodness Pargo is so bad. I've also got a few predictions that I'll throw out here...
1) Kirk Hinrich will absolutely suck and shoot something like 2-13 from the field on 0-8 3's. He will, however, have 6+ assists and 2 steals and maybe a block. Oh, and obviously, he won't get to the line ever and foul out.
2) Pargo will score 20 on something marginally better. Thus either tying or exceeding Kirk Hinrich in total 20+ point games this season.
3) Acie Law will play well. Murray will play ok. James Johnson will have several highlights.
4) Brad Miller will have a double-double.
5) Gibson will be a nonfactor.
6) We will lose by 30+.

I hope most of these are wrong, but I'm guessing most of those will come true.

Agree with some of the predictions. Kirk will be awful as he'll be chasing around Beaubois & Barrera most of the night. Pargo might score 20 but it'll take him at the minimum 18 shots to do so. I think Law & Murray will both play well since they have been the only "consistent" players out of this sorry bunch. Murray will probably be leading scorer again. Miller will not get a double-double. He's awful in the 2nd of back to backs this year, though so is pretty much everyone on the team. Gibson will finally not have a game marred by crappy calls that get him in foul trouble. And finally, we will lose by 19.

That's all my crystal ball has told me.

Looks like only 5 & 6 at this point.

I´ve got a feeling that I didn´t have a feeling! -.-

Dirk and Butler are loving playing against the scrub-a-bulls.

LOL @ Kidd's buzzer beater.

 

[Kush77]

Can we just start giving Pargo's minutes to Acie Law and see what happens.

 

[clonetrooper264]

Wait a sec...the scrubabulls shot 52.4% from the field and scored over 100 points AND managed not to lose by double digits? How in the world is this possible?

And my predictions all failed (what a shocker )...well except for Law playing well. 22 points in 21 minutes. Hey Vinny! Start this kid instead of that pile of crap Pargo, something good might happen.

 

[Shakes]

We showed some (dare I say it) feistiness, but way out gunned there. On the positive side Law is showing he at least belongs in the league (and hopefully will be stealing Pargo's minutes), and I think the last couple of games Richards has looked like a guy who would be a decent insurance big for the minimum.

Hinrich played 40+ minutes and only took 8 shots, which is unacceptable. With the other scoring options out, surely he has to at least take a few more attempts. I don't like to bash the guy because I think he gets more than enough already around here, but if he's going to be afraid to even try to score he's not much good to anybody.

PS: In before Fred tells us Law's last 20 point game against a winning team was today, Hinrich's was in 2008.
