Its officially the 2nd half of the Season. We're 4 games out of the 8th seed, 7 out of 6th. The team hasn't beaten the Bulls in Seven Years.

The Last time we beat the Bulls

Idk... even when Rose isn't playing, their frontcourt always gives us problems. Boozer will abuse Max, and Noah will abuse Moose. But I do hope we fight hard and maybe our guards will take a dump on their guards.

I don't have a good feeling with this game. I actually think we'll lose and it'll be murder. I'm usually optimistic but I just have a bad hunch about this game. It's a back to back game and we looked really tired tonight (I went to the game.) I think Hinrich will heat up against us with Noah manhandling Moose. If we win this game, it'll be because of Drummond.

Sure won't be a layup drill like yesterday... would be happy with a single digit L

I'm looking for a big game from Knight, Monroe, and Drummond...If Stuckey can give us another 14pts I'll be happy...I think we'll get the Win tonight and take another step towards the next level...

Bulls just beat the Clippers and are on a roll. This may be the best chance the Pistons have in beating the Bulls before Rose comes back. But, I have a feeling the Pistons has a chance in this game. A good chance.

I think you mean the Lakers, not the Clippers, which is much less impressive.

I like our chances tonight. If their front court is giving us trouble early, hopefully Drummond will be able to change the flow of the game when he comes in. If Knight can keep the turnovers down, and Singler plays like he has the past few games (it'll be interesting to see if he can chase Rip around), I like our guards in this one, especially with the way Bynum has been playing and hopefully Stuckey has a repeat performance of last night.

I also just read Deng is a gametime decision. http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/bulls/post/_/id/11632/deng-a-game-time-decision-vs-pistons

If Maxiell & Monroe can't keep Noah off the offensive glass this game, Frank better notice that quick and play Dre more tonight. We win tonight and playoffs start becoming a possibility.

Winning in Chicago is possible. Without Rose and the Bulls are winning on defense. We keep the turnover's down and we can get this.

With that being said - I predict a close game either way.

Deng is out. So we get to see the Bull's version of Avery Bradley.

Excellent story about the guy though:

Good read before the game.

what is our record this season in back to back games

DetroitPistons · Post #12 » by **DetroitPistons** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:05 am

I predict a tough game and a loss in this one. Chicago has beaten us 16 straight times, which is pathetic, plus this is a road game and Chicago is a tough grind it out team. Bad combination. Hopefully I'm completely wrong though because I hate Chicago.

I just hope Drummond beasts

The bulls announcers are clueless.

DetroitPistons · Post #15 » by **DetroitPistons** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:14 am

Good energy to start.

bballnmike · Post #16 » by **bballnmike** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:17 am

Good start, lets keep it going

*edit: omg worst possession I've ever seen

ComboGuardCity · Post #17 » by **ComboGuardCity** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:19 am

So far gems from the Chicago annoucers:

1. We are building around Brandon Knight and Frank gives him Free Reign
2. Kyle Singler is 6'11

ComboGuardCity · Post #18 » by **ComboGuardCity** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:19 am

Knight playing well yet again!

Great D!

engelbert321 · Post #19 » by **engelbert321** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:20 am

Nice. 2 early fouls on Noah. We need to get either him or Boozer on foul trouble.

I can't believe those 2 are employed. Top 3 worst commentators in the league.
