BULLS VS HORNETS

[theCHI_Life84]

luol is on a tear right now, double digit points in the first. but, is it me, or does he tend to disappear sometimes at the end of games?

 

[theCHI_Life84]

damn. another double digit lead down the toilet. unbelievable. hopefully they havent lost their legs yet

 

[Shakes]

Ugly 5 minutes with no points.

 

[Shakes]

WTF were NO thinking? We'll take it.

 

[RC_Skinny22]

Wow if we can win OT this is a present!

 

[Shakes]

Bit of luck involved but 5 in a row on the road baby!

 

[theCHI_Life84]

2 strokes of dumb luck in one night. rack it

I think it's a good sign that the luck is starting to fall our way. You can't rely on that happening, but it's been awhile since we were getting the right bounces (2008 Draft Lottery notwithstanding).

Wow, there were a couple plays towards the end of the 4th where Rose should have demanded the ball but he's learning I guess. Hopefully we can ride this momentum back home and get a couple more games in a row. I smell a Bulls/Celtics 1st round matchup again..

How great would a rematch be? I'd love to see the Bulls get the opportunity to paste the Celtics.

Btw. the Bulls are 4-0 in OT this season!

 

[pinkizdead]

if we got a legitimate pf this year, we'd beat the celtics in every match up.

rose > rondo.
hinrich might be able to hold his own against allen.
Deng might not be able to beat pierce offensively(although he did once this year) his length and defensive ability are invaluable in this category
Amare/Bosh> a hobbling garnet.
Noah> perkins
Resurgent brad miller> overweight wallace
salmons> marquis daniels
devin brown and pargo are only slightly better than house and scalabrine.

Brad Miller is not as skilled a ballplayer as Wallace, but I believe its possible that Boston could be the 4th seed when its all said and done...and the Bulls have a shot at the 5th seed...

Skill was never Sheed's problem. The guy doesn't want to play the game the right way, otherwise he'd be a 20/10 big every year.

The Celtics have 4 of the top 12 active players in total minutes played. Those guys are playing 36/36/30/24 minutes a night for them. Will be very interesting to see how well they hold up come playoffs time even if they do have KG. If the Bulls end up facing them I hope we really try to push the pace.

I agree a 110%. Its insane to play all those guys huge minutes. Rondo is the only one on that team I would play over 30mpg. Seeding is nice but when at a 100% they are clearly a notch better than anyone else in the east. If they lose anyone of consequence, they are sitting ducks like last year. If I were them, I wouldn't go for 60 wins, I would rest people and build up the bench and be in the low 50's. HCA isn't worth a major injury like last year.

if we get another shooter, i like our chances against a lot of the play off teams. A lot of the big teams in the east are teams that can be beat.
