Oh would it be awesome to win out and get a higher seed, and avoid the Pistons in the first round. I really think Miami or New Jersey are the teams we want to see in the first round.

ya I hope we get to play New Jersey!!

I don't care... I just want to see them finish at .500...


If they can do that... I'm not worried about who the Bulls face.

Magic are playing well... but Bulls are closing in.... down by 4 with about 10 left.

Is it just me or does it look like Luol Deng has gotten stronger? Like I can see it in his arms. Ne one else notice this?

Tie game bulls with the ball with about 10 left in regulation....

OVERTIME!!!!!

bulls up by 3 in OT with about 2 min remaining

If we play like this in the playoffs were going to be hard to stop. 3 guys in the 20's!! Thats Impressive. Plus Orlando was on a HOTT STREAK! But we stopped them.

Elsewhere, Milwaukee is up bout 20 on detroit and indy won washington did not play today.

Up 5

These refs have sucked balls this entire game.

Deng has really come on of late....and he is great on the boards.

With Dengs rebounding Chandler is in essenense a complete waste of space.


I hope Paxon trades this retard in the offseason. We need to rid this team of
all "Jerry Krause's mistakes"

We need D Rod back!!!!! I looked at his stats on the net yesterday, HE AVG 18.8 one year!! wow!!

That or some freak who dyes his hair and is a crossdresser.

lol that too... Maybe we should have Luke do that, now that would be freaky!!

Yeah

Bulls pretty much have this one wrapped up.

Game!

Da Bulls win it 116-112

Too bad teams ahead of us didnt lose.

So, after tonight, it looks like the Bulls, Bucks, Pacers, and Wizards will all be sitting with 40 wins. The Bulls, Pacers and Bucks each have 1 game left, the Wiz have 2.

Is it possible still for us to get the 6th spot?

Hopefully the wiz can lose one same with pacers and bucks.

I think 7 is the best the Bulls can get now...

i'm just stoke they are will finish at .500...

Now nobody can say they backed into the playoffs.

I would much rather us play Miami then Detroit. If we play Detroit Then its as good as done but if its Miami we may be able to make it a real series with a win or 2. Hell maybe win it.

But if its Detroit, no chance.

I'm wrong... Bulls can still get better seeds... If the Wizards lose 2... The Bucs and Pacers lose once... and the Bulls win ... they can still get the 5th...

Oh sweet Jesus....

Supposing that Chandler were a waste of space, it would not be because of Luol Deng's rebounding. You're calling Chandler a retard? Umm yeah, maybe you can take a minute to analyze your contribution to this thread, and then you tell me who the retard is.

I doubt that you even watched this game, because Tyson did one hell of a job guarding Dwight Howard. Dore and Red Kerr said as much.

His stats might not look great on paper, but he played a pretty big role in our victory tonight.

But by all means, let an SF's rebounding totals lead you to believe that Chandler is a waste of space. Never mind that Deng gets damn near all of his rebounds in the mid-range when Tyson is in the paint. And besides, what quality team has only one guy who can rebound effectively? Good God, man.

And who talks spiff about Krause while having a user ID like "rememberthe90s"? What the fish is that? Isn't Krause the guy who constructed all of those championship teams?

Yeah Chandler really gave Howard fits this game.... he might of fouled out and didnt have pretty stats but this game he performed well. Not as good as Hammer tells you but he is still very important to this team.

No to mention Tyson's D has won us some key games in the last ticks this year. His D is HUGE for us, and we need it for our succes, he could get 5 points game for all I care as long as he keeps taking care of business on the boards and D. That's not to say he has done it with great consistency yet, but he got tougher as the season wore on which is a point on encouragement for me. Keep it going in the playoffs Tyson, and remember a Center needs to make your shots when you take your shots.

I still remember freaking out when I saw pierce drive to the basket... I thought the Bulls were done.... Then Chandler goes and stuffs the crap out of him... and the Bulls won a close won in boston

BEST BLOCK EVER!!! (

To be honest, I think last night was a preview into the future of the NBAs Eastern confrence elite teams. Orlando is young and deep at their core, not to mention tons of talent. Plus with Grant Hill about to come off of their payroll, they will have some room to do somethings. And we all know where the Bulls stand with talent, caproom, and high draft picks up coming... It will be interesting to see 3-5 years from now where these two teams stand in the NBA.

He never drafted Jordan.

0 titles w/o Jordon.

Krause is also the fat pig that destroyed this team in the late 90's/early 2000's

Trading away future stars like Elton Brand/Ron Artest.

His essentially left a team in shambles after leaving..thankfully Paxon is doing a good
job cleaning up his mistakes.

And hiring Scott Skiles has been by far his best move to date...

Agreed.


But the Eddy Curry deal could be right up there depending the picks/players
we get out if it.

The caproom, picks, and flexibility alone make it a winner, esecially with the rumblings about the Knicks not being happy with Eddy and his work ethic possibly putting him on the trading block again.

Yep....work ethic doesn't suprise me.

I said before I grew up in the town next to Curry and he was widley known as a lazy
dumb turd.
