[SportsWorld]

I'll be there. Can someone watch WGN and tell me if you see me? I will be the one wearing the paper bag on my head.

I will also be carrying a sign with "DETROIT SUCKS" on it.

[NLK]

our Bulls team is so inconsistent and drives us so insane, that they'll do something to shock us tomorrow night.

Oh - c'mon. If you're gonna grab a game thread at least have something prepared...

[kulaz3000]

I really wouldn't be suprised if we won this game. Followed by losing to Memphis by 50.

[Bullsmaniac]

With the PISStons losing to the Kings tonight and Artest blowing kisses at Detroit fans, The PISStns will come here fired up. Bulls will get blown out tomorrow and it'll be a COLD (shooting) night for the Bulls to match the sub-zero temperatures outside!!!

[SportsWorld]

Perfect! This will be me tomorrow:

Ben Wallace is going to make all his free throws for this one.

[Posey H8er]

This may be the one game of the season where Ben Wallace actually tries to compete to the best of his ability.

[leaguegod692]

chances for kirk ?

[Rerisen]

Detroit is starting to get things together for the second half. Combine that with the fact that we beat them the last 2, and this one has the potential to get very ugly.

The only thing we might be able to redeem out of this game, is some playing time for the young guys. If Boylan acts stupid though, we won't even get that.

[fuzion]

please lose. Tank all the way.

[Posey H8er]

Knowing us we will probably do well towards the end of the season ending up close to the playoffs or in the playoffs. Then we would be in a dreadful position draft-wise, with the top prospects much lower.

[suckfish]

Pistons are a tough tough team, I'll be safe with this one and predict a loss. Can't see us beating them for a 3rd time this year, particularly when Detroit are coming off a loss to the Kings.

If the Pistons can't motivate Wallace to do something positive, then nothing will.

I am wearing my hat of negativity, it will take a huge game from the bulls to pull a win out of the bag, I think this could get real ugly.

Is Hinrich going to be playing today, just want to know for fantasy, thanks.

[Bulls_Dynasty6]

Is Hinrich going to be playing today, just want to know for fantasy, thanks.

Can't find any recent updates on his status, I think it's still a day to day game time decision jobby.

[girlygirl]

In one of the papers this morning it sounded like Kirk wouldn't play tonight. On the other hand, in his interview on tv last night, he said he was hoping he could go. So who knows -- it'll probably be a gametime decision. I'm hoping he is able to go, both so I get my fave player back in the lineup, and also so Boylan won't play Duhon 30+ MPG (although the interim coach has stupidly said he has no plans to make the obvious move to go to Kirk/Thabo as the starters)

I'd be more optimistic about this game if the Pistons weren't coming off a bad loss at home to the Kings. But the Bulls usually play Detroit close, so I don't expect a blowout, and wouldn't be shocked if Chicago actually wins.

[Jujuba69]

Play NOAH, just do it.

[NoSkyy]

Someone make Chris Duhon, Ben Wallace and Luol Deng extremely late for the game so we get to see all our rookies play tonight.
