The whole state of New Jersey is performing evil witchcraft voodoo on the Magic, with a strand of Dwight Howard's facial hair they obtained when they illegally met with him before the season.

I agree. The three stooges could run a better offense than this. We need to develop our young guys. I don't want to finish as a 3 seed and have to get blown out by Atlanta.

If I was Stan, I would bench all the starters except Dwight and force them to get their spot back.

that would be great but we would have to do some voodoo to get stan to do such a thing

+1 Yes, thank you! I'd love to go the route of what Indiana, Atlanta, or Philadelphia are doing... but better... a lot of athletic depth and length at each position... guys who play hard and attack the paint and get physical.

ESPN Stats & Info ‏ @ESPNStatsInfo
#Bulls allowed 59 points tonight, fewest they've allowed in reg season game. They allowed 54 to Jazz in 1998 NBA Finals.

Well, I knew it was some sort of record. Bulletin board material for the Bulls if we see them in the playoffs.

Like I said, we're done in 6 if we play ATL or BOS in the 1st round. This is a mediocre team that can't beat anyone worth a damn. I'm sure we'll win the next 3 teams and people will say, "we're back!" :lol:

Completely agree with this!

No dribbling to the rim, no mid-range 2 pointers, no attack to the paint, no points from PF movements.

This team live and die with 3 pointers. And there is no one to create his own shot. All dependent on ball movement.

We are playing like with 4 guards and one center while we are on offence.

i hope this game was a wake up call for stan and otis. stan needs to make better rotations and otis needs to get rid of our **** players.

Remember this past Thursday when we were all so joyous?

I don't. Blow this team up.

I saw Fire in Chicago's eyes. Those boys were playing hard and physical last night.. We were flat and soft. We looked like a bunch of pussies out there last night.

It's not even that, if Jameer and Hedo penetrate well of pick and rolls, and get Dwight touches so he gets attention, our squad can really put some numbers up, especially if guys are moving the ball around the perimeter. Nights like tonight where we take stupid spot up jump shots and the ball sticks in Hedo's hands, or Dwight doesn't get anything on the inside so he doesn't draw attention, we struggle to score more than 60 points. Almost every possession Chicago was making extra passes and moving the ball, and we struggled to keep up even though they were missing their leading scorer and distributor, we could do the same thing but our players need to buy into it.

By starting JRich we limited our best lineup to just three minutes.this is now my personal crusade.

JJ really should start, at least to give that lineup a little bit of someone who can set the others up to take the pressure off of Hedo so much. JJ isn't a playmaker, but when he was starting he did keep the ball moving well, which might make Hedo stop taking those boneheaded off balance jumpers with 18 seconds left on the shot clock. I doubt J Rich would really mind coming off the bench as long as he still got his minutes.
