Horrible turnovers, letting Wallace to whatever he wanted in the 4th. Horrible fouling under the basket. bad loss.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. Chicago Bulls
  2. Golden State Warriors
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
28 F'ing shots...pass the ball, Mr. MVP...Jesus.

To who? Luol Deng? No one else was making shots. I guess the one guy I'd say pass to is Korver, but the time he does get the ball, he gets whacked on a drive and no foul. Alas, nothing we can do. We have Boozer or Noah this game is a win.

Rose should have passed more to his 16-49 team mates. Obviously that would have resulted in a win. Only someone simple minded would think otherwise, clearly.

When youre not making your shots, your best player/scorer is gonna have the ball in his hands and try to win it himself. Welcome to the NBA. Brewer had no problem hitting shots. Deng was clunking wide open shots. Thomas was on and off. Want him to take 15 shots a game? How about Taj?

Like I said, when 3/4 of the team averages 1 to 2 shots a quarter, how do you expect people to get their shot going? or in a rhythm? You don't...but simple people just see the average for the whole game from the team....not the fact that they only get one or two shots a quarter, on average.

Except for the fact that those guys did get more shots early, it wasn't until late in the game when they'd shown they weren't hitting shots that Rose started taking most of the shots.

I bet LeBron or Kobe would've hit that fadeaway Rose took. Because they're something called clutch.

Actually no. They were split pretty even, with no chance to find a rhythm. Except for Deng. And Rose was split pretty even as well...

Rose took 13 in the first half, 15 in the second.
Thomas took 3 in the first half, 3 in the second.
Gibson took 4 in the first half, 3 in the second.
Korver took 3 in the first half, 3 in the second.
Deng took 3 in the first half, 8 in the second.

Like I said, how do you expect your teammates to get going with 1 or 2 shots a quarter? not to mention Rose drives...A LOT, which usually pulls in the defenders, and either opens up the perimeter or 18 footer, or a cutter down low...bulls don't execute off that very well.

You can't force guys like Big Sexy and Taj more shots, they shoot when they're open. As far as Korver goes, he plays only 12 minutes a half, so 3 shots is more than the "1-2 shots a quarter" you're dribbling on about.

Having re-watched the Korver play a number of times I'm going to take back my WTF, it's actually a pretty clever play. Jackson is completely wrong footed because he expected Korver to spot up in the middle of the court, and Tyrus is pretty slow to come out and cut him off because he's not even looking for it. Tyrus goes up late and gets the "block" by jumping all over Korver's back, but if that gets called a foul (like it would for the other 47 minutes of the game) or he doesn't foul Korver that's a win.
