Chicago Bulls:Back to the Top|We Are The Champions!!!

[Bucket]

Staff list is amazing.
I hate losing in last seconds. But your record is amazing. Pippen and Thibodaeu do a pretty good job. What is the Rose average now?

[George7]

Durantula_MVP, thanks!
Losing after coming back from a 10 point deficit in the last attack from the opponent ,is sooooooo irritating!

Rose averages currently 31.4 PPG ,10.1 APG and 4.61SPG

[Bucket]

George7, Amazing performance by D-Rose.

[KidJustin]

love the tables

too bad for that game against the Pistons. Rose with a half court shot? The timeout didn't advance the ball to the half court line? sucks..maybe could have gotten a better look?

Did Gordon play? He should have came motivated to play against a former team.

[George7]

Well,he played but he got fouled out 2 minutes before the end. He was just good. Not something special.

The ball was on the half court line but because i feared about the high pass bug(the one when the inbounder gives a lob pass causing great time waste) i went near for an easy pass as time was too little. But irritatingly enough , the bug happened again.I believe if the pass was good. I could make some steps forward.

Many thanks about the tables. Again you gave me great help and thanks to Benji as well for the tutorial.

Rose is the leader. Hopefully when Booze and Deng return,they will play great together and the team will be destructive!

[Andrew]

Shame the new era couldn't get off to a better start with a win but still looks like it'll be a fun season. Good luck bouncing back in the next game.

[George7]

Thanks. In fact the new era will officially begin at today's game vs Boston Celtics. I Wanted a home game with a strong opponent for the start. So practically the old faces were on control yesterday

Bulls Dominant over the Celtics,in the first game of the Jordan 2nd era

Those 3 guys were in the spotlight in today's match

Today it was all about Chicago in the States.Not only because of the clash of the Titans of the East(the two best teams in the east currently),but because of the presentation of the new Operational staff.Before the game, Michael Jordan ,the new president and owner,presented the new faces on the team,in a pandemonium of cheers by the fans.
Also announced that a Press Conference would be called after the end of the game.There was also a tribute video for the former owner of the Bulls Jerry Reinsdorf,who was also there as well.

Moving into the game,both teams were wearing Retro jerseys for this event,with Bulls having their 1996 alternative and the Celtics with the 1986 away.
As the game started,the Chicago squad ,showing enthusiasm in their game,obviously because of the great atmosphere present ,got an early lead.All players were on terrific form and with all the players playing great,the Bulls achieved an 18 point lead at the 3rd quarter.On the 4th though,Allen ,the top player for the C's,got his gun and along with Garnett,cut down the lead to 4,and also because the Bulls played their reserves in that period.

But at the end,Rose,Gordon and Noah stepped up and got this game out of reach,with a nice run at the last minute.

Michael Jordan:We're as strong as ever

"I'm really happy with team's performance so far.This team was never these 12 years that strong as this year.I believe that Pippen,is the best option for the coach position.We're looking forward for a great season,and personally I set the bar really high.My goal is the Conference Finals" said MJ,in his first Press Conference after the finalizing of the deal with Reinsdorf.He obviously set the bar really high,and we wait to see ,how the team will fill his expectations

Pippen and Koukoulis:We always aim the top

Both the Head coach and the GM were in a positive mood ,showing trust in their squad abilities

Scottie Pippen:I believe my team is really good,with a great chemistry.I'm glad to see that they fit into my strategies,and what we have shown today is the thing i want them to show in every single game.I hope we keep that work and go for the best.

George Koukoulis;I'm glad to see that despite all the changes the team isn't distorted.I believe that the new additions in the squad fits well,and with the return of Carlos and Luol,the team will be even better.We always look to win,and despite not winning everything ,we perform great.I believe we can do something great this year,and why not get a ring soon(laughs)

[Axel The Great]

Good job picking up the win against the C's. KG's 19 rebounds is incredible! Looks like the new Jordan era will help the Bulls to another championship.

[George7]

Hopefully yes!

[Bucket]

Banner 7 is ready?

[George7]

That soon? Maybe

[Andrew]

That's better.

[Alpha_]

Big win!

December 11: Oklahoma City Thunder(8-11) @ Chicago Bulls (16-3)

Chicago Bulls return from an 18 point deficit-Beat Thunder by 11

In this battle between the two,Derrick Rose and the Bulls were the winners

In the return of Luol Deng at Chicago squad,the Bulls managed to return from an 18 point deficit in the start of the 3rd quarter in a match in which the battle between the two rising stars, Derrick Rose and Kevin Durant,was on the spotlight. Those two put up some great performances in the game,giving an extra spice into this game.

In the first half there were only the Thunder,who dominated both ends of the floor,getting a 14 point lead at the end of the first half.Durant was a monster in the first half scoring 23 while Rose had 14.On the second half though,the Bulls stepped up this game,and despite Durant being 3/3 at the 3 pointers in the 3rd quarter the Bulls managed to cut the lead to 9 points. Luol Deng though had a bad fall at the end of the 3rd and never returned in the game.

And on the 4th,with Pippen's coaching for seminar,making the right moves,shaking the roster and playing fantastic defence,with Trap and Zonal systems changing all the times,the Thunder were blocked,Durant couldn't play his game,and with Rose leading the way,the Bulls got an easy win at the end

Scottie Pippen:Bad Start on the games

Despite being happy with the victory Scottie Pippen didn't like at all the first half of the match.
'We were really bad on the start.Nothing was going in for us.Despite the team being so good this season,I've noticed other cases as well those bad starts in the games.
But overall , I'm satisfied with the try those lads did on the 2nd half,and mostly with the fact that those who came from the bench,each and every one of them,played like a starter and really helped the team to bounce back.

Blockbuster Trade Between Boston and Utah


Ray allen will be trated to the Utah Jazz,acording with NBA Sources.League Sources have confirmed that a trade is being finalized between UtaH and Boston.The other big name in the trade will be Andrei Kirilenko,who will go the other way.
This is a kind of akward trade for the Cletics as they have Paul Pierce for the SF position,and despite being injured currently he's still the start and the Captain of this team.
Ray Allen now will head as the big star along with D-Will in Utah,while AK-47 will try to get his way into the Starting 5 still after Pierce returns

[Andrew]

Nice comeback win there. Bit of an odd trade for the Celtics there.

[George7]

yeah,just weird.
AK seems more than a temporarily solution.So unless they move Pierce at SG,i doubt if they will both fit in the team

[KidJustin]

Nice to have Deng back...but ESPN injury? i thought u were running TUP (which is TNT )

also probably should have gave him reduced minutes, or not let him start, or maybe not even use him....so he wouldnt get reinjured
.......
Nice double-double to fend off KD ...wait! am i reading it right or did u make a typo??

Rose had 10 rebounds and Alexander had 13 assists?

i'm not trying to discredit those players but while Rose may have a big rebounding night once and a while....Alexander with 13 assists?????

.......
anyways, u scored 120 points in that game and over in my dynasty...with my recently tweaked sliders i scored the same amount n u said it was too high


.......
the trade might actually work for both sides...granted i think an aged Ray Allen is still better than AK...
AK can play defense which is what the celtics are...the Truth playing SG is not an issue, hopefully the CPU will recognize that and make the right move....starting both PP and AK next to each other
Celtics will miss ray-rays 3 point shooting a lot

Utah desperately need a SG ever since they traded away brewer (who by the way isn't on ur bulls team?) now they just need someone to fill the vacant SF spot...can CJ Miles handle it?

[Alpha_]

That's a bad trade for Boston, trading away a sharpshooter Allen just for Kirilenko.. ahhh..

[George7]

KidJustin, it's just a typo

I scored 120 points because i was trying to score as many as i could to return on this game and after tying it,to get it out of reach!


As for the trade,i'm still not sure whether it will be good or not for the Celtics.Jazz are benefited for sure!

[Alpha_]

and the Celtics will be cursed.. joke.. Kirilenko will going to be the 6th man..
