Riley was saying Eddie Jones is going to be guarding Gordon...
does that mean Wade and his bum shoulder are going to be guarding Deng?
And there is still time to get in on the pick to click contest for the playoffs.
Be sure to get your pick in by 2:30 today.

My keys to the game:
Set pick and rolls of Dwyane Wade, bump his shoulder to get him in pain.
Watch Shaq at all times, dont double him because he will kick it out to the arch.
Get BG7 hot early on along with Cpt Kirk and Deng.
According to sportscenter Shaq is 26-0 in playoff series when he wins the first game so I see this game as a MUST win.

The offense is clicking, they are getting to the basket, rebounding well, and Wade is a non-factor so far. Only thing is Shaq looks good, but so far it doesn't appear he can win this game on his own.

We cannot let Shaq beat us. They need to force other guys to take the shots.

Apr 21 2007, 01:27 PM
Paxson you better be watching this is why we need someone in the draft who has the ability to stop the diesel. (if possible)
Bulls are making bad passes off the pick and roll has to stop.

They are taking bad shots and the D lost whatever rhythm they had early on. They look really bad right now, someone needs to step up on offense.

Apr 21 2007, 01:38 PM
Deng is the only one stepping up right now

Yeah, but they did play very well for the opening 3 minutes or so. Still though, only down 1 after 1. More points than I would have expected, the Bulls need to play better D. It looked like they were doing so towards the end f the quarter though.

They need to shut down Shaq and Gordon needs to heat up.

Tied after a decent run. The D is playing a little better, Sef looked solid on Wade. The home crowd is huge in this game right now. The Bulls are probably down 8-10 on the road playing like this.

YES, huge bucket to end the first half. Thats what I want to see, Dengs block then Thabo with score, start Thabo second half.

Apr 21 2007, 02:26 PM
Thabo is playing very well and the Bulls are up 3 at half.
Hinrich was in foul trouble most of the half and the Bulls are still up, very good. The score is also more within the range the Bulls would like (49-46).
