Good feelings from road trip don't last long as Bulls annihilated by Magic

[Rush]

Well, it had to happen eventually. A team doesn't play a full season in this league without throwing up a complete clunker where they don't even compete. There were a lot of things that could have been going...

0 rebounds for Noah. 0 rebounds?

After a night like that I wish they DID trade him for Melo.

While the rebound battle was bad in the first half, it only got really stupidly ugly in the second when the game was basically over anyway. Dwight only had 3 rebounds (1 offensive) at the half, rebounding was only one area where the Bulls lost the game.

noah had a decent night offensively. i think he had 16+ pts. you can't say that he had a terrible game.

Carlos Boozer didn't play well at all, and Rose didn't play his best game.

The offense was flat for obvious reasons. The rebounding was bound to be flat too.. but nobody could have predicted just how bad it would be. The defense was pretty bad... but not nearly as bad as the previous two categories.

Does every thread have to at least one mention of this guy?

What surprised me was that Boozer was starting. I'm all for throwing him in the fire right when he gets back but the starting lineup!? It was clear from the first defensive possession that Boozer was nowhere near adjusted to the speed of the game, hence wide open 3's by Lewis all night long. I expected Booze to come off the bench & play around 16mins or so. I think putting him in the starting lineup right away messed with our other starters. Then again, their energy was pitiful as well so I'm not sure how much of an effect it had.
