Dear Duhon, don't blow the game this time against this team! And oh yeah, make a shot or two!

The Kings are playing as bad as we are. We have a good shot at this one. Tomorrow will be a day of rest and we will be energized. look for big ben to have a good game and gordon lights it up. the post skiles era goes over .500 again.

New idea. Upon a loss, game thread opening posts to be auditioned through a mod.

edit: this comment was spurred by the discussion of the previous thread. The thread starter of this thread rules because his sig rules.

Its the first time this season, that im not looking forward to a Bulls game. I'll still watch but boy, is our season really slipping away from us. Sure, there are a good amount of games left, but if we don't get some momentuem going forward against good and bad teams like, whether we make the playoffs or not, its not going to be pretty.

Im just hoping that Paxson is working like a mad-man on the phones and working on a deal. A deal that favours us for a change..

We have every right to be optimistic about the Kings game. We took the leagues hottest team down to the wire in a double-overtime game without our 2nd leading scorer.

I'm pumped and very, very excited about the season these days!

Bulls vs the NBDL lol.

Newskool started a thread about signing Ben Udrih as soon as he got waived but no i was laughed at by Sham and other but this kid has done a real good job. This will be an easy win.

jax98 · Post #10 » by **jax98** » Fri Jan 4, 2008 5:17 am

No one saw Udrih busting out. No one. So it was a lucky guess from your part and nothing else. Even Reggie Theus was surprised, and he saw him up close for a hell of a lot longer than we ever did.

Morten sure tonights game was exciting but really you can say excited about this team. This team continues to dissapoint us and we have no one to blame but ourselves for our false beliefs. This team will continue to let us down until we get a bench and until Tyrus grows up mentally.

Lucky guess? anyone the Spurs pick has talent. Beno is a very good floor general who was stuck behind Parker, and Barry and other. Lucky guess my arse. Also I am not a poster who starts a thread for every player who is released telling everyone we should sign them. The kid had potential and i liked him and i saw a need on our team.

JackFinn · Post #13 » by **JackFinn** » Fri Jan 4, 2008 5:23 am

Newskool, it's time for a new cutie to sponsor. Start a thread with a poll and a pole. I pre-vote for Portman neck-up and Fergie neck-down.

Beats being negative.

Besides, as I mentioned:

Yeah, that's a huge reason to be upset!

And when he got on the floor, he sucked. Big time. So yeah, you pretty much took that one out of your arse. Why go defensive about that? My ass pick from a few years ago was David West. We've all had ass-picks before. The guy was looking to be a 3rd stringer at best. Do you honestly think the Spurs wouldn't have kept him if they knew he had this kind of talent/potential (The latter might be the more appropiate word)? When they select to have Jacque Vaughn over Udrih, it must have ment Udrih didn't look to have much potential at the time.

newskoolbulls · Post #17 » by **newskoolbulls** » Fri Jan 4, 2008 5:35 am

Wow we took the leagues hottest team yet their still what in 7th place in the West? We were supposed to be a 50 plus win team so yea i guess i am excited that we lost a thriller to a team that we were pounding early in the 2nd half.

jax98 · Post #18 » by **jax98** » Fri Jan 4, 2008 5:38 am

Big picture!

We actually did something about it (Fired Skiles) and in the meantime opened up our offense. Playoffs is most definitely not out of the picture.
