Pistons v Bulls 03.21.2015 

Post#1 » by theBigLip » Fri Mar 20, 2015 7:07 pm

It's at home, so is this a winnable game? Chicago is in a battle for 3-5 seed, so every game is important for them. I hope will play tough, and then lose by a few to help the tank.

I'm actually heading down for this one :) . I bought the tickets months ago when the team was playing good. I was pretty excited about this one then, but now i'm just hoping the boys put up a fight.
Bulls have plenty of injuries, so they're no sure thing, so who knows.

One obvious difference is the team is severely undersized when Drummond is off the floor. This season has seemed ill-fated since the Gray heart condition and the Meeks back problem. I like Anthony as a backup, but with Moose out we're just a small team.

We'll do what we can to help your tank out.

Now it's time to unleash the Bull!

I think the game is winnable for you guys. 2nd night of a b2b, Noah looking tired in the 4th yesterday, Dunleavy probably won't shoot as well as against Toronto, Mirotic is due for a poor game, still no Butler and Rose, Taj not in game shape.
Not saying you're likely to win, but it wouldn't be a huge surprise to me if we lost.

This team just beat Memphis and lost to the 76ers, I think any outcome is possible.. It would not shock me if I checked the score and it was a 40 pt loss or a 10 pt win :lol: Good luck though, it's a better thing for both teams if the Bulls win.

I'll be watching NCAA instead!

We seem to just play at our level of competition lol. So I don't know what's going to be a win or loss anymore

No, you guys have to win for us. We don't want this sparking off a string of meaningless wins, that's somehow more sadder than outright losing.

I think the Pistons get the win tonight. Bulls off a big win vs Toronto will not get up for playing the lowly Pistons, combined with Detroit winning meaningless games late in the season to hurt draft seeding...

Really hard to get interested. If there's anything to watch for, it's if our young backcourt is coming along at all. I'll probably look in but March Madness has the upper hand right now.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

The bulls are probably the weakest good team in the East. I want to see a win. Our floor is 8 and our ceiling is 6. Rather see progress and get 8th than go winless and get 6.

At the game, Quincy miller and Cartier are out here an hour before the game shooting jumpers. Prolly hoping their numbers are called tonight. I'd like to see Quincy get some game action.

Jackson is looking good so far.
