Lakers have bad defense. :( Whenever I get to watch one of their games somebody explodes on the other team...

The Bulls chocked... I'd say they caught this latest infection of choke-osis from Kobe :lol: 29 Turnovers, with only Adrian Griffin not committing one, suprisingly with his 1 minute of game time! Tyson Chandler 21 boards! Trade Curry's ass already.

wow- they really kicked the crap out of the cavs tonite, the top team in the East heading into wednesday.

while watching the game, i was waiting for the inevitable late charge by cleveland but it never happened

chandler continues to be very active and playing well. even showed a little post move or 2 today. maybe his play is making curry expendable, who curiously was playing in garbage time

that was a nasty alley oop dunk by gordon at the end

that's 2 wins in the last 5 :twisted:
I just have to contribute in this thread by saying that the Lakers will get the Suns back on Wednesday

:doh:
I hope it will still be encouraging when they lose the next 15 games, which will most likely happen. :lol:

:doh:

Fantastic news! Since PonTel is having a Christmas sale, I'll most likely be getting their three wins so far and subscribing to their double DVD pack offer for the minimum of 4 weeks. Better yet, the Bulls vs Sixers game will be shown here this weekend. (Y)

Another win over a stronger team after a close loss to the struggling Sixers on Friday. Great outing for Gordon, another couple of solid games for the two Cs. Hinrich just two boards shy of a triple double.

I really thought they'd beat Philly though, but I was really impressed with the comeback nevertheless. That offensive foul call on Hinrich...the Bulls were officially beaten right there, even though there was still about a minute left. Given the long continuation call they gave to AI earlier in the game it was a tough call but AI is going to get the benefit of some calls, Kirk Hinrich won't. Still, I thought it was a good game and it was great to see the Bulls play live again...even if they're not quite as good these days.

A couple of other thoughts: Curry and Chandler were underused, especially in the fourth. When Curry was getting the ball in the third quarter he was playing quite well, and Chandler was also doing a fine job in the first half.

Stephen A. Smith's comments just before halftime were ridiculous. To call the game boring when there had been a few nice dunks, some good defensive stops, field goal percentages over 50% during the second quarter and scores that were about average for the first half of an NBA game these days was just ignorant. I wonder if he was actually paying attention to the game, or simply judging it by the lack of a great number of "name" players other than AI and the fact it featured two struggling teams and throwing out some pre-prepared comments.

im happy the Bulls are getting something from Gordon....looks like Deng's gone a bit silent....

hmm still they got to trade for a veteran, they can expect to head to the lottery again and improve.

i'm happy too :)

i don't think deng's gone silent, he's just had less spectacular games and more solid games. and factor in skiles has those crazy, inconsistent player rotations

but yeh, i'm still happy. now if they could string these w's together now....
