nahh. they are a supremely confident team and I think are where MIA is, that is, "knowing" they are the better team. this team has a swagger. 9-0. that's not easy to do. And if Stephenson continues to improve like a Maniac, you can book home court for them through the playoffs. IND has bigger fish to fry than CHI. It's MIA. And derrick did not help matters much by giving Paul George something to put up on the team bulletin board.

They've had a pretty easy schedule and teams are still finding themselves. We should know. Wat we know now boozer has been our best player. Jo is coming around he had 18 last game.

And most consistent performer this year. But tonight is a big test for him without Rose.

I have great hopes for his newly discovered inside-out passing. It looks great & is much more enjoyable than his barreling to the rim until he commits the offensive foul. or gets his shot blocked.

Err, no, Bulls could be pulling the old rope a dope on Indy. But I'm erring on the side of not getting my hopes up.

if derrick sits again the media is going to run with it. that's just what they do. and I doubt derrick or the bulls are prepared for "questions". big game for IND. they could go up 4 games in the loss column with only one home game left vs IND for bulls to make up lost ground.

They just have that "us against the world" mentality right now because they think they don't get enough respect.

The Bulls have been smart with Jen in charge. Give him the Toronto game off when he isn't needed to give him a extra day off.

The last time the pacerss won PG went all off saying the bulls havent had success since the jordan era. The freakin pacers.

Jen comes out lookin like a freakin genius. Sitting Rose in a game that was won handily without him and get kirk some good minutes that could translate to our second unit. Bravo. Jen.Bravo.

I will now skip all the work I needed to do before 8 o'clock for my own mental preparation.

Id rather guys be de-conditioned than tear something.

Thibs seems like believe a lot in conditioning, which is important but theres also this thing called substitutions.
