Game 4 against the Grizzlies. Jackson carried OKC that game.

The continual recycling of coaches, both head coaches and assistant coaches, is a terrible thing. For example, Looking at recent news, how does Jim Boylan keep getting coaching jobs? That guy is just terrible. Bulls fans know this. But it just seems the NBA loves its old boys club and keep cycling through. Occasionally, thankfully, we get some fresh blood and the NBA is much better for it. Like Hornaceck or Steve Clifford, and look how great they did. Or when Thibs was finally given a chance. Folks get fired for a reason and then hired elsewhere for seemingly no reason.

I'm a grown ass man. My life is mine I blame no one else for my fortune or misfortune.

So Minny aquired T.Young from Philly..another solid move..

Rubio, K.Martin, Wiggins, T.Young, Pekovic 1st lineup
Mo Williams, Barea, Lavine, Budinger, Brewer, Bennett, Dieng, Turiaf backups..

thats a really good team for future,maybe even playoffs in 14-15.. im rooting for Suns (G.Dragic SLO,daaah..) and Minny in the west..

Interesting how Kirk was the #1 defensive point guard out of all those ranked. Not surprising really, but still interesting. Also, a possible reality check for those (like me) who say that Cleveland will be especially vulnerable on the defensive end. Maybe not so much..

sounded confident in it, to the point where he asked if they were still Live since he wasnt supposed to say so. He knew about Marion to the cavs a long time ago but didnt say anything. He annoys me but i believe him.

Man, everyone knows that Ray Allen will end up in Cleveland. No news there.

But at the end of the day, man, with what we’re trying to create here in New York, it’s a new culture and a new identity and we’re trying to create that,” Anthony said. “As far as me staying here, a lot went into that decision. At the end of the day, I did have to believe in Phil (Jackson), I did have to believe in my teammates. So that’s all that matters.”

O Melo you're such a jokester

So I'm doing what I usually do in the offseason when there's no hoops on which is go on Youtube and watch some mid/late nineties NBA. I've got Houston/Dallas on from 96' on and boy did I forget how quick Jason Kidd was on the break from foul line to foul line. Dude looks like he's speed skating.

And how crazy is it that the scoreboard/game clock wasn't displayed on the TV screen at all times even as late as 1996?

This likely isn't a needed post since there are probably a couple dozen users on this forum who also receive e-mails from the Bulls (mybulls), but I got an e-mail with a pre-sale code for the preseason game that is taking place in St. Louis on October 24th vs. the Timberwolves. Thought I'd share it since, if I remember correctly, we have a few posters who live in that area. The pre-sale is going on now through Thursday the 28th.
