Bulls at Wiz Game Thread? 

Post#1 » by dlts20 » Mon Feb 22, 2010 11:47 pm

Anyone going to make one? Bulls are playing great right now but they are still small with Hinrich starting at the 2 and Gibson at the 4. We should be able to take advantage of that. I would like to see us go to Blatche on Gibson alot and I would like to see him back him down & be aggressive. He shouldnt shoot fadeaways that much. Just back him down and shoot a hook over the top or turn towards the basket to shoot instead of fading away from it.

We used to match-up well with the Bulls, I have no idea what to expect with the new lineup. I'll be watching the coaching battle to see if Flip screws-up the 4th quarter again.

Let Rose get his and force the others to beat us. I fully expect us to pull out the win. 30+ effort from Blatche tonight. Thornton gets 20+ and Howard 20+ as well since he always seems to play well against the Bulls. Somebody start a chat up!

McGee exited the game earlier than normal, I wonder if his wrist is hurting.

2 teams playing well, but Wiz have played tougher teams recently. I'd say Wiz win on the backs of howard+blatche

Our D sucks right now as they are getting into the paint at will. You cant rip Blatche though for letting them score because its clear that after he got that foul on the 1st possesion, he is not taking any chances to get that 2nd. The perimiter guys have to stop letting them slash so easily because Blatche cant defend the rim right now with that 1 foul

What a frustrating game. Well, at least we can harvest those nuts. In the form of (pingpong) balls.

I cant believe the Bulls have these smaller guys guarding Blatche and Flip wont run any post plays for him on the left block. Blatche is only gettting the ball outside or on the right block where he has to turn over his right shoulder which ususally means a fadeaway. Give it to him on the left block so he can turn over the left shoulder with power on these smaller defenders. Run it every play so we can get some good shots
