WTF happened 39-6 run by the Bulls and I missed it.

Because you thought that the Bulls were intentionally tanking the game, that is why. Conspiracy theory, my ass.

'Turning point' indeed. They obviously had a heated meeting at halftime in this game. These are just the types of things that are a turning point. Hopefully someone got up in front of everyone and went off, and hopefully the message sticks from here on out!!!!

Gee. First they were intentionally tanking. Next talking about who would replace Thibs. Gibson intentionally missing shots. Now there was a heated meeting at half time? Brandon Marshall get up and chew people out happened next? What a freeking farce!

Perhaps lost in the mess that was the lack of consistency...Snell did a dang good job on Wade. Don't care if Wade is old or whatever you think he is. Snell didn't give him an inch. Hinrich actually did pretty decent on Dragic too.

Wade right now is one of the most over-paid players in the league but I agree about Snell. He reminds me of a kind of big vulture the way he envelops his opponent defensively. I imagine that Thibs has him in mind the next time they play Lebron. I actually think that Snell is better suited to see defensive minutes on Lebron than Butler is because of the drain that it takes on Butler trying to cover him.

Too bad Thibs won't listen.

Butler will be on LeBron ALL DAY LONG.

Snell will play very little in the playoffs.

I suppose in his defense, Snell would eventually get run over by Lebron because he's not strong enough. But, those few minutes Snell could give defensively would help Butler so much...

Snell did a solid job on LeBron in that game before the All-Star break I thought.

I mean...I would like Butler and Snell to split the time. It would give Snell minutes and give Butler a break. It's a win-win imo. Just boot Hinrich out of the rotation and it's no problem.

If I were running this team, which is laughable.. but if I were...

Noah-Gasol-Dunleavy-Butler-Rose is my starting

Niko is my 6th man.. Taj spells for Noah/Gasol...Snell spells for Dunleavy and Butler... Brooks for Rose with some minutes at SG as well.... There is my rotation.

Hinrich would only play when Rose and Brooks happen to both be in foul trouble.

I give Gasol a lot of credit in this game. He came out with some fire in his eyes after being embarrassed by Whiteside in the previous game. He was a big difference in the game. And, is Bob Cousy getting senile these days? Comparing Whiteside to Bill Fucking Russell? Someone had to spike Cousy's Ensure with heroin or something!

You mean the guy you constantly whined about in the off season that was supposedly over the hill? The same one I said was a great p/u for the Bulls and could average a 20/10 for the Bulls?

The Hawk said:
You are an idiot. YOu are "wondering" if the Bulls are trying to lose? When that little girl on your JV team caught you with her elbow, did it rattle you so much that your brains became jello? You sure as shit know nothing about the Bulls let alone basketball. The notion that anyone on the Bulls would intentionally tank a game is stupid. Bringing in Rose is tough enough, but people also need to remember that Gibson missed a lot of games also recently and is trying to regain his game. He missed a damned dunk for cripes sake in that game.

This is a tough situation for the Bulls and clearly they haven't figured it out yet in regard to finding a smart rotation and finding a good harmony. This, I think, will be Thibs toughest job yet as a head coach and no one can know if it will work out. The parts, conceivably are all there but every time the logical starters get back on the court together, one or more of them go out with an injury. It really is an amazing situation.

You dumb mutherfucker. I was joking and running with the conspiracy thing. If anyone on this forum is against tanking you fuckin moron, it's me. Just go back to last year when EVERYONE wanted the Bulls to tank, it was ME alone that called everybody out on it. Look it up you lazy bastard!

The Hawk said:
Umm. How many games have they lost in this play-off stretch?
Click to expand...

Well moron, prior to the Heat game, they had lost 3 out of 4, including the Bucks and Orlando. I actually liked their effort in the loss to the Cavs even tho it was another loss. Fuckin idiot!

You mean the same Snell I was telling you was better than people were giving him credit for? The same one you completely discounted during your off season rant about the Bulls backcourt, all while you were fantasizing about Rondo?

What a fuckin moron you are Hawk. Go away and quit following me around like the little girl you keep fantasizing about.

You're the hypocrite here Pal, slurppin on Pau and Snell after trashing them all off season. Are you jumping on the band wagon now after trashing the Bulls and GarPax all off season long?

I love calipari...he's got that pat riley aura

however he wouldn't be a good pro coach IMHO...his specialty is recruiting...I think he would be a better gm than coach or at least the mouth piece of the FO
