I loved Noah passing up an open 4 footer in the second quarter

I get it, because I included the Knicks the rest of what I put in that post is invalidated?

Nah I was just nit picking on the fact you choose the Knicks as one of the teams that the Bulls would struggle to come back against. Unless their 3's are raining, any team can come back on them.

The only team that I think the Bulls would struggle to mount a comeback against in the Eastern Conference are the Heat, which is a concern come playoff time.

That said, I also think its best to withhold complete judgment until later down the stretch. We're only 6 games into this season. There's still alot of basketball to play and alot of time for Noah and Boozer to get their shit together. Will they ever be perennial All-Stars that they are paid like? Nope, not likely, but they certainly should be playing much better than they are now.

I'm not bitching about the win. Just pointing out that Noah and Boozer were riding the pine pony...again,,down the stretch. These are supposed to be key players on the team.

I would be perfectly content dealing them and Asik for a big man who is going to play defense, be a scoring threat and be on the floor in the 4th quarter.

Dwight Howard? Actually...let's not go there either...

You think the rest of the league is stupid? Asik sucks and Who is going to take on that shitty money?

Sooooo Dwight Howard sounds like the only option.

Thank you, I am aware that teams will struggle throughout the year. What I was saying, however, is that you have the $60 million dollar men who once again could not be counted on for key minutes during the 4th. Great, Noah made that pass, but maybe, just maybe if he had a post game we wouldn't have been in that position in the first place.

And like I said, we all get it. Do you really need to point it out with every single post that you make? Is there anything else than Noah & Boozer sucks that you have to offer?

There's just no pleasing some people. :shrug:

I'm not bitching about the win either. Bulls are 5-1 and I'm ecstatic. My point is you can't count on either of these two, and they are paid to be counted on in those moments.

lol@melo getting traded again.....from NY? no way

i would have said last year that you're not really gaining anything from getting melo(he's a versatile scorer..but can't play D at all and losing deng and noah is huge)...

except right now noah is pretty awful...so perhaps you're getting a net gain by getting melo for deng and noah...i think the knicks would be lolling at that trade though

my reserve on melo is that he's just one of those hard guys to figure out...he isnt a lebron or kobe that completely changes the dynamic of the TEAM...nor does is his loss devastating...i think that speaks some volume for melo's game

but thats just my opinion

Stop replying to him. Some of us have him on ignore. And also, nothing you reply with is going to matter.

Really? Could've fooled everyone in this thread. How about talking about the suffocating D in the 4th? Or Korver's 3 HUGE offensive boards? It's all negativity with little to no positivity.

Your response would make some sense if this wasn't happening last season...which it was.,,and in the playoffs.

Laugh all you want about the teams I mentioned, but those three with the Bulls are going to be getting seeds 1-4 this year (throw in Boston if you please) in the East this year. I put up a quote from a buddy of mine earlier in the season and it got laughed at that the Bulls are built to win in the regular season and not the post season. Regular season vs. Playoffs against Miami last year kind of shows what I mean.

As for 6 games into the season, yes you are right. Except I remember a thread started by some of the basketball genii on this forum bitching and moaning about MVP voting a week into the season.

I don't think it's out of the question I can raise my concerns.

LOK a suffocating D. Josh Smith was jacking 20 footers.

OMG Korver got rebounds.

Covered.

On to more important things.

Please tell me SOMEONE is watching the Bucks vs Jazz game!? The Bucks are playing some of the worst pro basketball I've ever seen in my life. And as I type this, Brandon Jenning's gets a steal, fastbreaks and misses a wide open layup Hahaha! Jennings is 4 of fucking 19 from the floor right now, and Captain Jack is 5 of 17. They are just hoisting up some of the most ridiculous ill-advised shots. Took them 12 and half minutes into the 4th quarter to reach 70 points. Wow...

I would say good point. Except Josh Smith was 3-4 in the 4th

I didn't say he was missing them. Smith was jacking up 20 footers. That;s not suffocating D. That's Smith jacking shots and getting lucky.

Ahh Lex that hurts. Would it make it better if I said there is too much passing in the NFL?
