Taj is just as untouchable as Rose. In fact, everyone on this team is equally untouchable.

Do you guys remember the first few games with Boozer? We didnt play well.

With Noah coming back its going to take a few games again to get things going.

We have none.

Going to be tough for us moving forward against top tier teams.


We've done alright so far. But yeah in the playoffs it will kill us.

I just want Deng to step up against the top SF in the league. 2 points on 1-5 shooting and a few turnovers.

And Lebron hasnt even been tested with the ball yet.

It's pathetic that Asik is going to play 15 minutes a game at MOST the rest of the way and we didn't give him up for C-Lee, a guy who would play 30 minutes a game at least.

Deng needs to get in his face, if he drives we pack the lane and prey.

You can't do that. James will blow by you for a thunderous dunk. There's just no stopping him; you can't put that on Deng.

His lack of contribution on offense, on the other hand...

We need a Ben Gordon/Jason Terry/Jamal Crawford type off the bench. Just some guy who can go off at any time.

SMFH at some of the posters on this board.


Yup, we'd totallllly be winning with OJ Mayo out there.

SMFH at you as you still have no clue why we are ok with Paxson not giving up Asik in a trade for Lee. I would have bit on Mayo tho.


Asik is a luxury. A real starting SG is necessary. How do you not understand that?

But its going to be hard to mount a run on a B2B if we give them any more free baskets at all in transition.


I disagree. I think this is the type of game that's already out of reach, despite it not being a blowout. It's not even that we lack offensive firepower against Miami, it's that we're horribly out of sync. Our second unit has done a better job on defense, but on offense...ughh. Could have really used Marcus Thornton on that second unit.

The 2nd Quarter wasn't so bad for us. However, it's going to be tough getting back in the game after we played poor defense again in the 1st.

Rose needs some fastbreaks himself to help him going.

That's what is dangerous about giving those up to Wade/Bron. Not just the hard points on the board, but it helps them get in rhythm.

Bogans can't run with Rose, so its never going to happen consistently. The deadline is past, we no longer have a stand-in excuse rationale. It's time to start Brewer.

I'm not a big fan of Igoudala starting at the SG for us but he would do wonders for the Bulls in this game if he was on our side.

Also, I just can't understand what is going on with Thibs lately. What's the deal with this Kyle Korver love? Guy is playing like trash, trying to drive insted of shooting? :lol: And Brewer's been playing really, really well. We are not going to win this game by Kyle Korver shooting threes and getting killed on defense on every possesion. Get Brewer out there.

Once again, why can we not play Brewer instead of Korver down the stretch of a half? He jump starts us on defense and I really don't think his offense is that bad. This is a guy that should be playing 30-34 minutes a game and starting.

Derrick can't carry us everynight with no other perimeter scoring threat, particularly in the playoffs. LeBron couldn't even do it last year in the playoffs.

As I said, if he drives and scores it's not on Deng. On the other hand all those open jumpers he has been taking without the hand in his face are on Deng.

I dont complain about Rose, he will do good when he turns it on... But i don't give a damn if we win our next 10, I would still rather have Mayo as a second ball handler .. did you just see KK try to create off the dribble, or brewers 15 foot pull up? .. yeah



did you just admit your a troll?


What the hell are you talking about? it seems like you are one though, i dont bash any of our teams guys when they are doing bad when we are losing and I dont say oh well game over in the 2nd quarter.. then say GREAT GAME THIBS is great.. only thing i put is I DONT CARE IF WE WIN the next 10 or whatever.. I still believe we shoulda did either taj OR asik and picks for mayo.. I will root for my team regardless though..

Good luck with that. Thibs' loyalty towards his veterans is big time meh.

The way to outperform your half court offense is to get turnovers and fastbreak points. Just like the Heat. But with Boozer and Keith, we don't feature a lineup that can do that.
