Trainwreck Game (Chicago-Miami) Thread

I can't sticky this and make it an official thread, since I'm not a mod.

Battle of two of the most dysfunctional teams in the league. The Bulls vs. a Miami Team that has lost 10 straight games!

Someone has to win (can we just have a double forfeit???)!!

The return of Shaq!

Sounds like Nocioni and Hinrich aren't going to be available, which means probably another game of that Thabo/Duhon starting backcourt and Griffin being the primary back-up SF!

I think I'll just watch Idol....

Shaq vs Ben Wallace? Is this a Old Timer's Game?

Why don't we just have them shoot 10 free throws each, whoever makes the most, gets the team win.

Portland at Boston tonight, and Okafor against Howard, but I think you nailed the spotlight matchup?

Its a tie, they both lose tonight!

Also here's fitting song for this thread:
An ode to NOAH: The Real Black Sheep

I hope to see Noah get 20 pts and over 10 boards. I'm already expecting goose eggs from the other guys. Heat probably win 120-24.

Maybe a national broadcast of Wallace's anaemic play will be enough to send Pax over the edge. Tim Thomas his arse.

Miami 77
Chicago 72

edit: forgot about the Bulls defense

Miami 85
Chicage 72

I will watch just to see Thabo get some burn. I hope Noah, TT, and Gray also have good showings but Bulls lose so we are that much closer to full tank mode. I forgot what it felt like to look forward to the draft in January.

Thabo about to shut down DWade tonight. Another breakout game for him.

thabo looked real good out there yesterday hopefully he can build on it and become a player in the league

They just need to play Thabo 30 mintues tonight, regarldess. I want to see what he has got to offer with a large amount of mintues..

My money is on Gray owning Shaq. :lol:

Thabo should be getting more minutes than Gordon

why? I want the Bulls to lose. This season is already over. Start playing the young Bulls for next season.

I think you're seeing the big reason why Skiles was let go, as they days pass by since Skiles' firing, the more confidence and better play is showing from Thabo.

Paxson knew this team was done, but he does owe it to the interm coach to try to win, Boylan didn't and it's almost time to hit the development switch to give us a reason to start following this team again, to see the start of a new beginning, if we can develop Gray, Noah, Tyrus and Thabo, it's ONLY going to help our team next year... and even if we keep everyone, we'd be a much better team next year because of it.

Play the young guys and let's see how we stack up against the Heat as of now, what I don't want is a win by the narrowest of margins going with the vets... there's nothing that a win like that does for the franchise short term nor long term.
