Just realized the next three games are on WGN. Normally that isn't a terrible thing for me because some crappy channel out of Rockford picks up the Chicago WGN feed and broadcasts it for the rest of northern IL. For whatever reason that channel has elected not to do that for the next three games (at least), just as they chose not to air last Friday's game against Charlotte. So even though I live in northern IL, not even an hour from the western suburbs, I can't legally watch the Bulls next three games.

That's just inexcusable.

Sorry for the bitching, but had to vent somewhere. F***.

Jimmy apparently targeting end of this week to return. Let's hope!

Same here I live in the Rockford area and have Dishnet and haven't been able to watch Bulls games when they are on WGN.

I hear there is a live stream on the internet somewhere but I haven't been able to get my computer to coexist with the Active X software or whatever it's called so I can view the games on my laptop computer.

I would be ok with watching it on my android phone if that is a option as well.

Is there a free live stream available that someone can post up please? :nod:

thanks

Hopefully Jimmy and/or Taj comes back this game. Seems like Taj might be optimistic about tomorrow. Would be nice to start seeing our guys come back for this last push

Can we get a sticky?

taco_daddy · Post #13 » by **taco_daddy** » Thu Mar 19, 2015 11:56 pm

It's time. Why? Because yesterday is gone. Tomorrow is too far away. The only time we have left is NOW. So therefore, it is time.

It is time that we unleash the Bull. NBA league, you have now been warned. Bear witness!

Easy loss. Mcdermott's career low.

What would his career low be, like tipping the ball in the Raptors basket for his only points?

Who knows. Gotta feeling. His worst game this season was against Raptors (on bad knee). And we are coming closer to playoff and this is direct fight for playoff seeding. So Thibs might not be to generous.

K.C. Johnson ‏@KCJHoop 2m2 minutes ago
Taj Gibson listed as questionable vs. Raptors. That's upgrade from out, which is what Rose and Butler are.

I wonder how close Jimmy is on his return.

maynardo · Post #20 » by **maynardo** » Fri Mar 20, 2015 3:40 am

If lowry doesn't play the bulls a good chance of winning, if lowry plays they should be heavy favorites.

This is a really big game, if we can't beat toronto they'll prolly run away with the third seed, since they have the easiest remaining schedule in the east.
