THIS THIS THIS x 100000

Rose needs to make better decisions, but Korver is the only mf'er who runs around trying to get open. Seriously, half our offense is watching Rose and when your man goes to help on Rose, you move to the open spot. Move your asses the entire time and you'll get better shots. Promise.

Seriously, keep the defense rotating. Deng seems to be the one guy that stands around the most.

Nah, it's all of 'em. Bogans and Boozer do a lot of standing, too. Noah and Taj will fake you into thinking they're moving, but they'll just go pretend to set a screen then go right back. We need more movement. Or, we do typically. Didn't tonight, but we won't win any championships if we play like we did tonight.

No i agree but it seems more often than not, Deng is the one that stands out. Kind of been that way his whole career.

Im watching the post-game conference and man, Joakim Noah is just a great teammate. First class dude. Its a real shame that so many people hate on him because of the way he looks and his intensity. what a winner

I just love how he takes it upon himself to fire up the team and crowd...The UC has been eerily quiet this post-season, except for when Jo goes nutso. It's awesome.

He really does make you want to get up and just go nuts. Even after getting a new contract, the guy plays to win on every possession. I hope he can manage to stay healthy throughout the years, like 70-75 games a season healthy. He continues to progress and get stronger, which is real encouraging looking a head a couple years.

Deng may have a so so offensive night but you can always rely on his defense. He did a great job defending JJ the whole time making him shoot difficult shots.
Drose on the other hand is chucking too many 3 pointers he needs to attack more and take medium jumpers were he's more efficient.

Anyway a win is a win. Hopefully they can play great Defense again on Game 3.

Had Rose made those 3's would anyone say he's chucking?

He takes a couple of bad 3's in the games yes, but for the most part his shots are good shots, he's just not making them.

It seems like every time he misses shots, he's chucking, but when he makes them, no one says a word. He has teammates that pass the ball back to hm (Korver I'm looking at you), teammates that don't go strong to the hole unless they are WIDE open (hey Boozer) and he has to take shots late in the shot clock and at least to 3-point attempts come at the end of quarters and the first half.

To me, he didn't shoot as bad as it looked. He missed some shots he normally makes, so that will come around. FG% isn't everything. He hit shots when ATL was making a run to stem the tide. You mean to tell me he should worry about his FG% when the team needs a big bucket?

He had 25/10/6, so what if he didn't too well from the floor, no one else was either.

All of his three's were bad except for 2 out of those 8..one of them went in. All the others weren't even close to going in.

Joakim Noah is the only former Florida Gator that I have been able to like.

Let's face it. Rose didn't have a very good game at all by his standards.

7 missed three's (most were contested)
8 turnovers

Let's not fool ourselves.

Noah was the only one I disliked when at Florida.

I didnt like him when he was there but he's turned me... Don't tell anyone i said i like Noah... Id get abused by my fellow alum.

Bulls back in control!!!

I think the Bulls turned the corner in Game 2. Chicago is simply better than Atlanta and I think the Hawks' 15 minutes are up. There is an article at The Daily Hat Trick going over a bunch of sporting events in the next week and the Bulls' series is one of the topics discussed. The author shares my opinion.
