That was yesterday. It's boxing day in Australia!!!!!!!!!

I don't celebrate Christmas, period. (But i'll take a win over the Bulls any day of the year. The only Eastern Conference team I hate like Dallas and Utah. (I am a Jordan Hater! So many Bulls fans in the 90's, where are they now? Oh yeah, they're Miami Fans!!!!)

It was because every Douchebag and their dog thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. They were quick to shutup when I pointed out that the 90's Bulls, sucked against the 90's Rockets. And that if we could have gotten past those Damn Sonics, (That had our number) that Jordan may have had considerably less rings than what he did!!! Not denying he (Jordan) was a great player, but I guess playing as a centre my whole life, I wasn't in awe of the skill set he posessed as compared to Olajuwon, Robinson, Mutombo, Ewing. Plus if you asked half these morons to name 5 other players on those Bulls teams, most of them couldn't, even though they were "Huge" Bulls fans.

Again, I think Jordan had the advantage of being the face of the league. Just like Kobe and LeBron, he was untouchable. I feel he got away with more than other players, and was nearly always given the benefit of doubt in 50/50 situations. Then there was the "Let's leave the best PG in the league at the time, out of the Dream Team, because I don't like him" thing in 92. and Jordan wasn't even the best player on that Dream Team, it was the Chuckster!!!! So yeah, you could say I have my issues with the Jordan Legend. And his shoes sucked, like most Nike products.

Hey, I'm never afraid to call it as I see it especially when it comes to Basketball.

And I find it hilarious, that basically everything he has touched since Chicago, has been crap. The Wizards, then the Bobcats. I'm suprised he hasn't lost the Bobcats in a golfing bet!!!!

Bulls favored by 4. Houston's currently 6th in the West. I think we can overtake the overachieving Warriors at some point. It's a tough 4 game stretch coming up. I'd be content to go 2-2. So we need to beat Bulls and Wolves.

Let's go Rockets! Merry Christmas!

Holy crap, just start the game already. Enough with the panel of imbeciles and the commercials.

Bah humbug to you ESPN.

Remember back when we used to call James Harden's Kevin Martin's?

We get to the line for a lot of James Hardens every game. Even Asik is shooting his James Hardens well!

Quite a lovely ass kicking so far, keep it up so we can have more ass later.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays all.

It looks like foreplay is over and we're getting in our groove. We're a mismatch nightmare for the Bulls, great game so far. Go Rox! :D

Harden has had two beautiful long-court passes on the break tonight. Love what I'm seeing here!
