LOL. Spurs just clowning the Bulls. And the saddest part is that some people here think the Bulls are a "good" team.

I don't think Chicago is a good team. But they are better than us head to head.

I honestly never saw what was so special about them to begin with.

What is so special about them? Tonight was the first time they lost a regular season back to back in the last 12 months.

That is because they are a good team, not great but good. Every team in the league can look bad on any given night.

Ken Berger ‏@KBergCBS

Per @SherrodbCSN, @GwashNBAGlobe, @SteveBHoop and others, Celtics expecting Leandro Barbosa (knee) to be out for the year.

That fact that they beat us head to head says much more about us and our head-coach than it does about the Bulls. They are no better than the Nets.

Like I said - he tried. Barely even took timeouts when the Bulls went on a run. The Bulls are simply that bad.

Hardly. they lost 4 of the last 6 and should have lost in Utah as well. This is not some random bad night.

Other than us, and one win against the Heat, they haven't beat any of the better teams in the league.

They closed both halves with solid defense and didn't turn over the ball.

He also put guys in the exact roles of the guys that were out.

He knew what he was doing, same squad almost beat the Heat....which are vastly better than Chicago.

But either way both teams are good, not surprised at the result though.

Another point about Pop, he only keeps a roster of guys that can step up and play, his entire bench at times can replace a starter and produce.

If that player isn't in that mold..they get cut, no matter what talents they have.

Watching the Spurs, the "we're the deepest team in the league" threads from the start of the season looks awfully ridiculous.

Bingo

Pop values consistency above all else

Pop values high BBIQ.

De Colo, Gary Neal, Danny Green, Tiago Splitter, Boris Diaw.

Those guys aren't any better than the average NBA talent, they just play within Pops system and to their strengths. Splitter was a total bum and has now developed into a stud. Diaw was on his way out of the league and is a contributor on the Spurs.

Celts down Rondo, Barbosa, Sullinger for the rest of the season
