Ok, now it is OVER.

I can live with Iggy taking that shot and missing. Much better than lou couging it up on the sideline.

This team cannot win a close game.

This sucks big time.

Played well it seems (I only saw the 4th quarter) against a very good time though.

Bulls fan here, great game.

It's about time I can watch the Bulls play some real competition, I hope we don't face you in the 2nd round

7th or 8th seed may not be that bad . At least we'll get the top non-lottery pick ...

Meeks with the floor side literally made me laugh.

Lou's next game he will drop 20 and everything will be fine again.

Yeah if you call blowing a fourth quarter lead late in the game and giving up a ton of offensive rebounds to Joakim Noah and Taj Gibson only to have that followed up by a dagger three pointer from Luol Deng which then in turn leads to a costly clutch Louis Williams turnover followed by an Iguodala fadeaway three that gracefully airballs out of bounds in triple coverage leading to ultimately yet another gut wretching, hair pulling/balding, frustrating loss fun....Then I guess we will all have a blast Sunday.

Well...Can I call em or what? I was fairly close.
Oh and here comes Boston.

Holy s*** the game thread on the Bulls board won big macs. I can't even remember the last time we went over 30.

Good game guys. I've mentioned it in our GT but you guys are probably the last team I want the Bulls to play in the playoffs aside from the Heat. The defense, the hustle, the teamplay is just built for the playoffs.

Semaj · Post #337 » by **Semaj** » Mon Mar 5, 2012 2:43 am

Are we on pace to become the most unclutch team of all time yet? Serious question.

76erStu · Post #338 » by **76erStu** » Mon Mar 5, 2012 2:44 am

this team loses close games in the exact same fashion every time.

they are just not good enough.

Collins could definitely manage the final 5 minutes better. he is a detriment for us late in games.

this nucleus, although they play hard, is not good enough.

if there is a deal to be made for ellis, wes matthews, etc, we have to do it. yea, that won't get us to miami or chicago's level either, but you cannot stay with this same roster. we have to add a scorer, and from there continue to tweak

Mik317 · Post #339 » by **Mik317** » Mon Mar 5, 2012 2:44 am

Man it's gonna be awesome when our FO does not get us another scoring option come the 15th.

gonna be sweet.

But seriously, we don't even need a goto guy (okay we do but hear me out here). We need a guy who can get his own shot. He doesn't need to be a star or even a prolific scorer just another option.

Thad is a good scorer but he has no plays run for him. Iggy is just not consistant offensively. Jrue goes into caliswag mode too much. Turner is a bitch. Meeks spaces floorrrzzz. and Brand is old.

That leaves Lou as the only guy who can really get his own shot. But due to his size and our lack of other options, he can get double teamed or trapped all game.

Just another dude would help us out big time.

Sadly that means we have to get rid of someone. OR we can go after cheaper options like Beasley or Nick Young. If they don't work out they can walk at the end of the year. But they are young, athletic and can score. So they fit in too.

But yeah I'm not wasting my breath...we all know Thorn a'int gon do ****. Dude gets a free paycheck.

you forgot the ability to lose all close games, so you are good, nothing to warry about in Bulls land
