Nice game thread Deep! Bulls have no post game. Lakers should kill them on the box. Hopefully they can put together 48 minutes of good basketball because they havent thus far.

REDEMPTION!

I hate having all these days off after a loss. It boils and seethes in the pit of my stomach to the point of ruining my ability to enjoy any aspect of the NBA.

I hope the Lakers feel the same way.

Hopefully Bulls will not embarass themselves.

By the way, Gordon does rhyme with "Jordan" but the name is spelled a little different (see original post).

Rose is the only thorn in our way from winning.

I expect a double-digit win.

Play to your strengths.

Thanks imworthy, yeah your right it's no reason Pau and Drew don't post double doubles this game. Hell even Vlad should get a little taste of the pie in this one.

The Bulls front line is so weak that Al Horford & the Hawks abused them badly last Tuesday. Drew Gooden missed that game and will play Tuesday - but Bulls will not be very competitive.

It shouldn't be frustrating for him at all. In fact I believe thats one of the reasons why they went ahead and paid him his money, so he wouldnt think that he has to show he can create his own shot on th low post block. In the pre-season you could tell he was pressing because everytime he got the ball he tried to create his own shot. Thats not the Bynum I saw last year. The Bynum I saw last year was masterful on the pick-n-rolls. Phil has said countless times that Bynums points last year came from someone setting him up. At this point Bynum doesnt need the pressure of trying to make the right desicions in regaurds to weather he should shoot, pass to a cutter, or kick it out for the three. Let Gasol handle all of that because he is better at doing it. All Bynum has to do is Rebound and Defend. Anything else he gives us in the way of scoring is just gravey. The sooner everyone knows and understands their rolls the better this team will be.

I'm sorry snaq, but we have the WEAKEST dancers in the whole league. If you don't believe me here's a taste of some other teams dancers compared to ours.

HEAT DANCERS

LAKER GIRLS

It's not even close, hell I'd go to a Heat game just to watch the dancers. Laker Girls use to be the bomb but you can tell it's been a major fall off over the years.
