Are there 10 other bigs giving you 16 and 10.5 with rim protection and shot blocking?

gasol, Davis, griffin, Aldridge, Drummond, cousins, Jordan, vuc, horford and pau are better imo. also Lopez depending on a team needs

Dude should be pointing to the sky after that and not after his silly shots...

So fortunate to be up and walking. Damn that was ugly.

Jeez get well soon Curry. You're the only hope us bulls fans have. Sucks because of how smooth he was rolling.

Too bad it didn't count.

Lead down to 10. Warriors just have to bring that defense. They can win this without Curry. Houston aren't exactly the most disciple team going around.

If they go cold, they're easily back in this.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!?

I see him walking the halls but ppl are acting like he died in the GB Thread

Ariza was on the breaking, Steph chasing from behind. Ariza stopped, faked, and Curry went flying over the top of him. Landed really awkwardly. Lucky he didn't do damage to his arm/shoulder, but as he fell, he landed hard on his back and hit his head as well.

It was ugly. Likely concussion.

Thanks. Saw the replay. He "Got his bell rung" as ESPN loves to (downplay) say. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a concussion, but a contusion sounds right. I didn't see it at real speed, just the ESPN slo-mo.

Concussions ruined the NFL for me. I got a horrible concussion last year in a car accident and now I cringe when I think about or see a guy get hit in the head.

Eh, I can't put Drummond ahead of Howard. Not sure about Vuc either, big numbers, lots of losses in a very meh conference. It's only debatable because this Dwight is now injury prone.

Sorry to hear that, man. Hope all is well on that front.

Really speaks to the lack of respect the media has for the IQ of basketball viewers.

Dwight is still a top 5 big man. Pea-brain be damned he still has the physical tool set like no other big in the NBA

The only way he'll be a hope for THIS Bulls fan is if he puts on that red and black jersey. Otherwise, he ain't putting any new banners up in the UC so who cares.

I love Gobert. But he needs to do it for a full season, which I fully expect him to do. The kid is a monster.

NBA making sure they won't have those NFL problems, if you don't pass the head test you ain't playing.

Polynice4Pippen · Post #1960 » by **Polynice4Pippen** » Tue May 26, 2015 2:37 am

Why, Dwight? :nonono:
