If we can resign ben for 6/50, and flip some exprirings and picks for Amare, we will be in business next year.

If we don't sign ben, and come back with the same team, we will be around .500 again.

Overcoming the 14 points we were down at the half was always going to be hard. I thought we battled well except for during the second when we totally lost the plot and stopped playing as a team. Hopefully as both Rose gets more experienced he can be more of a settling influence when that happens.

Turnovers and offensive rebounds really hurt us too, hopefully Rose learns from this and the TO part corrects itself. As for the rebounds, I think we need to upgrade PF to fix that.

Still well done to Ben for contributing even though after a hot start he wasn't shooting well, Kirk for battling hard in the 4th, Noah for playing basically a lone rebounding hand, and Rose's jump shot really starting to look solid.

The offseason will be interesting, whether we sign BG or not you'd have to think the 2010 situation will become clear this year and we'll see what we're going forward with.

Well here come the Ben Gordon bashers. Since the Bulls lost, Ben Gordon is going to get criticized by every media drone for being a streaky ball hog. It's a shame really. Perhaps I need to be like Fred and be fine with the fact that Ben Gordon may not return next year. Let's go get that big man eh?

I was literally tearing up a little when it first hit home (not balling my eyes out just a few tears) but I've realized I should be proud & focus on the future as it is brighter than ever.

Just hope Gordon's back & moves are made to make us better. Next year we can build on this. Its been a hell of a ride who thought we could get this far. The boys put up a hell of a fight

Wow what a crybaby!!

I agree, I don't get why the media is bashing him. Sure his shot was off but he got 15fta, what more can you ask from him if his shot isn't falling? He still had 33 points. Its not a career night but he certainly wasn't the problem.

I am sorry but I was not happy how Vinny went up to Rondo and spoke to him, same with our players. We had a physical series with them and there should be no congratulations from us to them. I am not being sore, its just the way I feel.

What do you prefer, spitting in his face? Its good sportsmanship and we are a team full of good guys, no one is going to be a prick to him.

Alot of them are friends and didn't talk during the series. I loved it when Rondo get thrown on his ass twice in a row though

I hope to God Stan Van Gundy sends Foyle in the game for 2 minutes just to deliver some pain to Rondo.

Why even bother with that, I hear Howard is pretty lethal with his elbows. Just ask Courtney Lee.

The league is watching Dwight closely, he delivers any kind of blow he will get suspended. You send in Foyle and do it and who cares if he get suspended.

That was an extracurricular hit, if it happened during the play, he wouldn't have gotten suspended.
