Just about the most fun since '98 was

Bodyslamming the Miami Heat on their ring ceremony night


I cant remember a more delightful experience. Seems like ages ago, but boy that night was great.

An entire offseason waiting for basketball (+ revenge) and it came thru

My favorite was the first playoff game against the Wizards. It was more intense and loud then most of the Jordan Bulls playoff games I went to.

Was that the one that we lost on a last second shot? I was there for that if it was! and yes it was pretty damn loud! What was awesome was that we were losing so fans started going home early, so my girl and I snuck down the the lower levels for awesome seats in OT.

no shug you're thinking of game 5 (3rd game at home) of the series. bulls played an overall **** game though it was still exciting and pargo almost became our greatest hero since Jordan. I still try like once a month to find some damn clips of that 9 pt pargo comeback but the only shot i can ever find is the stupid arenas game winner.

Doug is talking about our first playoff game where Noc went **** and went for like 21 pts and 17 boards. Absolutely amazing game...i know i'm biased but i thought it was better than any playoff game that season. Noc had 2 absolute monster blocks on the wizards...after 6 seasons of futility watching a game like that was like..not just refreshing..it was mindblowing.

Bulls drafting Elton Brand and Ron Artest. They drafted really well, but then blew it all up way to soon.

Mmm.... Ron Artest has been either trouble or injured for all teams.

That was my favorite individual game since then. I also loved the Knicks games 4 seasons ago when (a) Gordon hit the buzzer beater in New York; and (b) Chandler blocked the Ariza jumper that led to "the play".

I basically love all games from the last 2/3 of the 2004-5 season. We played some absolutely inspired basketball. Way above our talent level. Just pure heart and determination.

Happy Birthday Nocioni if I remember correctly.

And Chandler didn't block Ariza, Nocioni did, and Chandler saved it.

The run to the 2006 playoffs starting with the 17-point comeback win at home against the Pacers.

It was also fun for a while to actually be considered a sort of elite team last year.

04-05 season probably was the most fun and enjoyable time for me. Because everyone was just sooo eager for success. We started off 0-9 and then just went crazy. Gordon was like a saviour and Tyson and Eddy were ballin in their roles. Thats when the bandwagoners returned to Chicago.

Most of them have left now
