Bulls suffering "awful feeling"

The past two years, the Bulls have traveled to Miami in April for a first-round playoff series.

They flew into Florida on Monday with their playoff hopes on life support. One more Bulls' loss or an Atlanta victory officially eliminates the Bulls from the postseason for the first time in four years.

"It's an awful feeling," guard Ben Gordon said. "I was telling somebody the other day, I've never not been playing for a playoff spot, ever in my life. For this year to be the first year that's ever happened, not only in my NBA career, but my life, it's a bad feeling."

There's a decent chance the elimination won't come today. The Bulls are playing Miami (13-64), which has dropped seven in a row and needs 1 more loss to clinch the NBA's worst record. Atlanta, meanwhile, plays at Indiana, which could pull within 1

Maybe that "awful feeling" is from all the basketball abortions they left on the court this season...

Awful feeling deserved. Remember that feeling all offseason and going into next season... douche bags.

They don't play like they feel awful about it.

If you feel awful because you are losing, then you bust your ass. These guys started mailing it in weeks ago. I don't give a flying **** about how awful they feel, nor do I believe it in the first place. If anything, they feel self pity.


They do and then they win a game and the awful feeling is gone they relax then lose two & get that awful feeling again and win another one then go on to lose two more.
Guys started mailing it in weeks ago - you are much to kind they mailed it in long before Skiles was fired.
If anything, they feel self pity. - I agree they are wallowing in self pity.......

I hope they feel more awful this summer with a firing and low-balled contracts. I've never hated a single season as much as this one with any of my sports teams.

Edit: All of them can go to hell.
