Ok, so I did not expect to be losing at half time.

Crawford with 17 first half points.

2nd half needs a heavy dose of Aaron Gray, Joakim Noah, and Tyrus Thomas.

how sad to be trailing at the half against a team decimated in the morale department. what does that say about our team?

Lol @ Crawford.

He used to make a couple nice moves like that on the Bulls and people would fawn over him for the next week or two. Meanwhile, he continued to be an entirely mediocre player.

Joakim Noah... +7
Tyrus Thomas.. +8

Joakim Noah.. 7:44
Tyrus Thomas... 7:25

Enough Said.

I'd like the rooks to play even if they can't pull off a win. They're just more fun to watch. The excitement in the UC has been at an all time high when these guys are in.*

I have to wait for MSG to start showing the game... blacked out on LP because of that, and now hockey's over - but they're not going to the game, they're doing a recap of what's going on (MSG, NY show), despite saying the game would be joined in progress at 9:30... *shakes head*

Don't get MSG2, either.

Hopefully I'll get to see the 4th qtr.

Joe Smith 10 points on 10 shots, Ben Wallace has 6 boards, but I'd rather see Aaron Gray and Tyrus.

Bulls problem is that they drafted Hinrich & Gordon & saw these guys as stars. As time went on, it's obvious that they are only ordinary. They seem to have reached their max performance & probably will not get better

The sad part was that the bulls passed up better guards, like Roy, because they believed in Hinrich & Gordon.

A poor Guard ruins the whole team. One reason Chandler & Aldridge are doing well is because they have great PGs feeding them.

We have second stringers running our team

Ah, it's half-time... didn't even know, that's why it's not JIP yet

NewEra · Post #313 » by **NewEra** » Wed Jan 9, 2008 2:47 am

that was probably one of the quickest moves i've ever seen by Jamal.....Hinrich should go home after that.

I saw the lead either increasing or decreasing, because our defense has been poor the entire game. The Knicks are a poor shooting team, yet we've allowed them to shoot over 50% for the entire half. We just had to play a few mintues of hard defense when we had that lead and the game would have been blown out, it was bound to happen.

Boylan has reworked the offense, but his work with the defensive side has alot left to be desired. Our defense isn't even close to how it was the previous seasons..

I still think Gordon has some development left in him. Him improving his handling and learning how to get to the line will significantly improve his game. They're both learnable things.

Hinrich plays good D on all guards, not just SGs. Your eyes are deceiving you.

Duhon with a hot shooting night for him, 1-4 25% so far!

Ok, this 3rd quarter is going to be huge. Bulls can't come out flat and let the Knicks build up momentum.
