Hawks ain't got nothing on the Heat streak we busted. This is a piece of cake.

IMO, the big key to the game is to defend the 3pt line. We can't let them get too many 3s and we can't let them get all those long offensive rebounds as well as limit the fast break points.

We do that and we will have a great chance to win this game.

I am confident of a Bulls victory if we indeed have three guys put up 30.

Are opposing teams allowed to bring their cheerleaders?

Just go out and smack them in the mouth.

Gar: I never said that and correct me if I'm wrong.

Weird, I never expected this.... but this starting lineup has the highest net rating of all bulls lineups, even with Kurt in and no Dunleavy to provide spacing

not a big enough sample size, but not small enough to ignore it either

Easy loss. The Hawks are the best team in the NBA. Expect a 20 point blowout loss.

I think we should try making them score less points than us.

Tonight starts the 2nd half of our season. The first half of the season, 41 games, is over with.. The team has done better than I thought they would with the early schedule and changes.

Now, the NBA season really starts. This is when teams start to really find their identities. I've held off getting upset about the lackadaisical effort and nights off this team has seemed to feel entitled to. Time to start ramping things up so we are peaking by April. Time to start playing defense like this team is capable for more than the 4th Q.
