Philly playing with no PGs tonight. We're up 2 after the 1st. Woot for sloppy games.

 

[clonetrooper264]

This is a Miami repeat right here. Crappy 2nd quarter. Can't buy a basket. Jason Richardson looks like it's 2003. Oh, and no fouls for anyone.

 

[clonetrooper264]

Welp...perhaps the Bulls will have another Nazr pep talk and halftime and come out and crush these losers in the 3rd.

How's Rose doing tonight? I can't the game where I'm at tonight. It looks like he's only taken one 3 at the half with 3 assists. I really want to see him concentrate on running the offense and setting people up in the playoffs.

I don't mind him shooting a little to work on his shot now, but in the playoffs, if I were Thib's, I'd make sure he's driving and dishing 1st, and shooting only when he has to, imo. The Bulls will be so much better if this happens, imo.

Derrick Rose - 28 minutes
8-19
1-5
8 assists
6 rebounds
3 steals
+25 (highest on the team)

I know it's against the Sixers but still a good confidence boost and showing from Rose.

Hey, at this point, beating the 76er's is a good thing, right?

Not seeing the game, Rose's statline looks pretty good to me, especially the 8 assists, as I said before! 6 boards as well! One more 3 and he'd be at 40%, so I'm somewhat indifferent on that right now.

I still say the assist stat is what we want to see. 3 steals as well, nice, we'll need Derrick against Wall, Irving, etc., as well. :yep:

I was shaking my head how long it took Thibs to play Tony!

I´m really interested to see how this team is doing during the playoffs. If they get beaten by anybody else but Cleveland in the East I´m on board blowing this team up, besides Derrick, Tony, Jimmy, Niko & Doug.

I didn't get to see the game, but I thought Tony hit 3 big 3's late. After watching some highlights, it looks like Rose is gonna do just fine to me. He can change the game for the Bulls in the playoffs, imo. Taking good shots and dishing the Ball will make the Bulls 10 times better.

Rose can also neutralize guys like Irving. :yep: I'm getting a gut feeling that Rose might be getting ready to make a statement in these playoffs. This could get interesting, imo.

They were running a weird lineup. They started the game with Sampson, Covington, Richardson, Grant, and Aldemir. Positions did not matter for them.

Probably just experimenting for the hell of it.

Was at this game. My girlfriend's mother won tickets in the 100 level, 15th row in the corner. Two rows ahead of me was John Fox. He spent the majority of the first half hitting on this woman seated next to him. He had around 4 beers in the first half. If I hadn't before, I now love him.

Well that and all of their PGs were injured
